There are two main types of organisations that use science: those that make useful products like pharmaceutical drugs, chemicals, and food, and those that provide useful services like health, analysis, communication, and energy. These organisations employ many people, provide important products and services for society, and generate significant money that contributes to the national and local economies. Examples include large multinational companies as well as national and local organisations.

Something to think about...
The document discusses how people often convince themselves that they will be happier once they achieve certain life goals such as getting married, having children, buying a house, retiring, etc. However, it notes that there is no better time to be happy than the present. It encourages people to enjoy every moment instead of always waiting for some future time or event to find happiness. It also discusses how the people who truly matter in our lives are not those who are most famous or successful, but those who care for us and support us, like family and friends. The document concludes by relating a story about nine disabled athletes who stopped racing to comfort a fellow athlete who had fallen, demonstrating the importance of helping others.
Computer Games Based Learning in Scottish Schools
The document discusses using games-based learning in Scottish schools. It describes how games can be used across various subjects to engage students and support learning.

1. The document presents a method for adaptive clutter rejection in atmospheric radars using direction of arrival (DOA) tracking with unscented filters. DOA estimation is performed using differential MUSIC and then updated over time using an unscented Kalman filter.
2. A simulation was conducted with four signal sources, one stationary and two moving, received by a radar array. DOA measurements from the unscented filter and MUSIC algorithm were used to reject clutter based on a constrained minimum power criterion.
3. The results demonstrate that the proposed method provides effective sidelobe cancellation for atmospheric radars through high resolution DOA estimation and state estimation of moving objects over time.

The Competition
Several fruits were arguing about which one truly represented Italy. An apple from the north claimed it did because it was available year-round. An orange from Sicily said it did because it provided vitamins in the winter. Grapes argued they did because people love eating them in the summer. A watermelon joined in and said it should be included too, despite being large and clumsy. When a slice was cut from the watermelon, they saw that its green exterior and red inside matched the colors of the Italian flag, making it the fruit that truly represents Italy.

Using technology-enabled social prescriptions to disrupt healthcare
As chronic diseases are increasingly straining healthcare systems, social factors are gaining importance. Since the birth of social medicine (19th century), we saw many failed attempts to beat the dominance of the biomedical model. Social prescriptions have come, raising hopes that non-biomedical solutions will improve outcomes and optimise resource use. Social Prescriptions connect citizens to support to address social determinants of health and encourage self-care for physical and mental health. Social prescriptions can make us healthier cheaper and with fewer side effects than most drugs. Social prescriptions can become a disruptive force as they can be personalised, improve lifestyle-related diseases, and support non-biomedical issues affected by social determinants of health.

L2 gas exchange
The document discusses gas exchange in the lungs. It explains that oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the bloodstream while carbon dioxide diffuses from the bloodstream into the alveoli. It also describes how the movement of the diaphragm causes inhalation and exhalation by changing the pressure and volume inside the chest cavity. Specifically, when the diaphragm moves down the chest cavity expands and pressure decreases, drawing air in, and when it moves up the chest cavity contracts and pressure increases, pushing air out.
Rate of decomposition
The document discusses rates of decomposition and composting. It explains that decomposition rates can be reduced by removing warmth, moisture or oxygen from the environment. The document also discusses the composting process, noting that compost heaps break down plant materials through decomposition, releasing nutrients into a form plants can absorb. Composting requires oxygen, warmth, and a mixture of wet and dry materials.
Investigating a crime scene
This document outlines the proper procedures for investigating a crime scene, including:
1) Initially assessing any hazards, determining if a crime occurred, and identifying victims and witnesses.
2) Securing the scene to prevent contamination by restricting access and using a single entrance.
3) Recording the scene through sketches, notes, photographs and video to preserve evidence.
4) Systematically searching and collecting evidence while wearing protective equipment.
Breathing
The document provides information about breathing and respiration. It discusses the structure of the lungs including the trachea, bronchi, alveoli and diaphragm. It explains how breathing works through inhaling and exhaling, and how gas exchange occurs in the alveoli. Breathing and respiration are processes that involve changing lung size to move air in and out, releasing energy through cellular processes using oxygen and glucose.
Improving food production
1. The use of fertilizers and pesticides in farming and antibiotics for animals has increased food production but also has disadvantages like environmental damage and antibiotic resistance.
2. Microorganisms can be used to make foods like yogurt, cheese, bread, and alcohol by fermenting sugars and starches. Mycoprotein is a meat substitute made from fungi.
3. Various methods are used to prevent food spoilage by microbes including refrigeration, drying, pickling, freezing, pasteurization, irradiation, vacuum sealing, and canning.
Drug development
Drug development requires clinical trials to test new drugs for safety and effectiveness in treating diseases like bacterial infections. Bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics through mutations occurring during reproduction, necessitating continuous development of new drugs. Later phase clinical trials increase participant numbers to further assess safety and efficacy in diverse populations before public use. Thorough testing helps prevent tragedies like thalidomide and Northwick Park hospital trials, where insufficient safety testing harmed volunteers. Placebo-controlled, double-blind trials and sourcing drugs from natural substances like plants aim to develop safe and effective new treatments through ethical clinical research.
Weight And Terminal Velocity
The document discusses weight, terminal velocity, and how drag affects an object's acceleration through a fluid. It defines weight as an object's mass multiplied by the local gravitational acceleration. Terminal velocity is reached when the downward force of gravity equals the upward force of drag, resulting in a constant velocity. The document explains that as an object's speed increases through a fluid, drag forces also increase, until terminal velocity is reached and acceleration stops.
Classification
Organisms are classified into groups using a binomial system with a genus and species name in Latin for consistency. This document discusses how the binomial system of classification works, with the genus name first and capitalized and the species name following, to categorize organisms into the five kingdoms of animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, and protists. It prompts finding the Latin names of common organisms like cats and dogs on Wikipedia to illustrate patterns between closely related species names.
Self Defence2
The document discusses how the body protects itself from microbial attacks. It explains that the body uses mucus, cilia, stomach acid, skin, tears, and white blood cells to prevent microbes from entering or destroy them if they do enter. White blood cells engulf bacteria while antibodies are specially designed proteins that attack specific microbes by fitting to their surface. The immune system makes different antibodies to neutralize different microbes.
Welcome To The Science Department
The document welcomes students to the science department and provides an overview of the AS and A2 course structures for biology, chemistry, and physics. It notes that the courses follow OCR syllabi and that AS courses are 80% theory and 20% practical work, while A2 courses are 40% theory and 10% practical. It also shares that last year's pass rates for A2 were 100% for biology and chemistry, and 75% for physics, with all passes being grade C or higher. Destination information shows students went on to study medicine, chemical engineering, biochemistry, and biomedical sciences.
Control Of Heart Beat
The document summarizes the control of the heartbeat. The sinoatrial node (SAN) located in the right atrium acts as the pacemaker and initiates electrical signals that cause the atria to contract. The atrioventricular node (AVN) located between the atria and ventricles briefly delays the signal to allow the atria to empty before ventricular contraction. The purkinje fibers then transmit the signal to the ventricle walls to cause synchronized contraction from bottom to top, pumping blood out of the heart.
microbes and disease
Microbes such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi can cause disease in humans. Important scientists like Ignaz Semmelweiss, Louis Pasteur, and Joseph Lister helped discover that microbes were the cause of diseases and developed practices like hand washing and sterilization to prevent their spread. The human body also has natural defenses against microbes like skin, mucus, stomach acid, white blood cells, and the ability to develop antibodies from vaccines or previous exposures that provide protection.
Energy Transfer In Reactions
The document discusses energy transfer in chemical reactions. It explains that exothermic reactions release energy, often as heat, while endothermic reactions absorb energy from their surroundings. It also describes how reactions involve breaking bonds between atoms in reactants and forming new bonds between atoms in products. Breaking bonds requires energy and making bonds releases energy, so exothermic reactions release more energy in bond formation than is needed for bond breaking, while endothermic reactions require more energy for bond breaking than is released in bond formation.
Courseworkrequirements
The document provides guidelines for students completing a science coursework assignment on a topic related to science in the news. Students must research the topic in lesson time using supplied resources and are allowed to bring notes to the supervised writing session but not completed work. They have one hour to write a 800-word report answering the given question and must cite all sources used. Reports will be assessed on skills like selecting evidence, data analysis, and relating findings to social issues.
Chromatography
This document discusses chromatography and poses questions about separating mixtures of colors. It asks what solvent and solute were used, what other solvents and solutes could be tested, how to fairly compare different inks and ensure an experiment is repeatable, and how the experiment could be improved. It also asks what would happen if waterproof ink was used and why some dye travels further than others.
Heat Transfer Quiz
The document is a heat transfer quiz containing 10 multiple choice questions about different heat transfer processes including conduction, convection, radiation, and properties of good conductors and radiators. Key terms covered include how radiation travels as waves, how silvering in a flask prevents heat loss by radiation, how black objects are good radiators while shiny objects are good reflectors, and examples of processes using different heat transfer methods like convection and conduction.

Physical evidence includes marks and impressions like footprints and tool marks, as well as trace evidence like fibers, glass, and paint. Analysis of these can provide clues about what happened during a crime. Footprints and toolmarks can be lifted like fingerprints for analysis. Fibers come in different types and shapes that can be identified. Different types of glass can be identified by their color, density, and refractive index. Blood spatter patterns depend on factors like size, direction, and force, and can reveal details about what took place. Chemical evidence includes substances like paint, drugs, and ink that can be analyzed to gain information about a crime. Chromatography and other techniques are used to identify chemicals and substances. Paint analysis examines color

There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
