So do we understand how enzymes work?
Between 1930 and 1975 biochemical and structural analysis of enzymes led to a clear set of ideas that might form a basis for detailed understanding of enzyme action. Further development required energetic and thermodynamic analysis of enzymes in an aqueous medium, beyond the computational power then available. Structural enzymology advanced in other directions, but the fundamental questions of ...
متن کاملHow do We Understand other Humans?
In last two decades we had an intense discussion about which theory best describes how we understand other human beings. I will argue that neither Simulation Theory nor TheoryTheory nor Interaction-Theory do offer us an adequate analysis. Despite the fact that they highlight some relevant aspects, the generalization made by each theory cannot do justice to the varieties of social understanding ...
متن کاملHow Well Do Patients Understand Written Instructions?
The aim of this study was to assess health literacy (word recognition and comprehension) in patients at a rural rheumatology practice and to compare this to health literacy levels in patients from an urban rheumatology practice. Inclusion criteria for this cross-sectional study were as follows: 18-year-old patients at a rural rheumatology practice (Mid-North Coast Arthritis Clinic, Coffs Harbou...
متن کاملHow well do we understand cosmological recombination?
The major theoretical limitation for extracting cosmological parameters from the CMB sky lies in the precision with which we can calculate the cosmological recombination process. Uncertainty in the details of hydrogen and helium recombination could effectively increase the errors or bias the values of the cosmological parameters derived from the Planck satellite, for example. Here we modify the...
متن کاملHow Do We Understand the Coriolis Force?
The Coriolis force, named after French mathematician Gaspard Gustave de Coriolis (1792–1843), has traditionally been derived as a matter of coordinate transformation by an essentially kinematic technique. This has had the consequence that its physical significance for processes in the atmosphere, as well for simple mechanical systems, has not been fully comprehended. A study of Coriolis’s own s...
