- 1142: Euthanasia In The United State
- ... trust is bestowed in these key players of our lives if anything were to happen to us. The question in this sense is how do we know that they will make decisions in the best interest of the patient if they are unable to speak for themselves?

Chillingworth was a popular physician of the time and due to Dimmesdale's deteriorating health condition, they ended up living together. At first the people were happy to see that they were living ...

- 1147: Neural Networks
- ... is linked to many of its neighbors so that there are many more interconnections than processors. The power of the neural network lies in the tremendous number of interconnections (Za93). ANN's are generating much interest among engineers and scientists. Artificial neural network models contribute to our understanding of biological models. They also provide a novel type of parallel processing that has powerful capabilities and potential for creative hardware implementations, meets ... for solving application problems (Wo96). Neural networks excite our imagination and relentless desire to understand the self, and in addition, equip us with an assemblage of unique technological tools. But what has triggered the most interest in neural networks is that models similar to biological nervous systems can actually be made to do useful computations, and furthermore, the capabilities of the resulting systems provide an effective approach to previously unsolved problems ...

- 1149: The Cystic Fibrosis Gene
- ... approach to finding the gene that is responsible for causing a genetic disease has been to first characterize the bio-chemical defect within the gene, then to identify the mutated protein in the gene of interest, and finally to locate the actual gene. However, this classical approach proved to be impractical when searching for the CF gene. To find the gene responsible for CF, the principle of "reverse genetics" was applied. Scientists accomplished this by linking the disease to a specific chromosome. After this linkage, they isolated the gene of interest on the chromosome and then tested its product. Before the disease could be linked to a specific chromosome, a marker needed to be found that would always travel with the disease. This marker is known ...
