Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a progressive genetic disease that adversely affects a person's lungs, pancreas and other vital organs, says Dr. Michael Boyle, president and CEO of the Cystic Fibrosis ...
Cystic fibrosis (also known as CF or mucoviscidosis) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder affecting most critically the lungs, and also the pancreas, liver, and intestine.
The Einstein-de Haas experiment is the only experiment concived, realized and published by Albert Einstein himself. A complete original version of the Einstein-de Haas experimental equipment was donated by Geertruida de Haas-Lorentz , wife of de Haas and daughter of Lorentz, to the Ampère Museum in Lyon France in 1961 where it is currently on ...
Goldstein grew up on Staten Island and received his B.S. degree from Wagner College in 1959 and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from Rutgers University, the latter in 1964.He served on the faculty of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine from 1964 to 1972, and as director of the Division of Biochemistry at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston from 1972 through 1978 before accepting ...
Einstein's scientific publications are listed below in four tables: journal articles, book chapters, books and authorized translations. Each publication is indexed in the first column by its number in the Schilpp bibliography (Albert Einstein: Philosopher–Scientist, pp. 694–730) and by its article number in Einstein's Collected Papers.
August – Dorothy Hansine Andersen describes the characteristic cystic fibrosis of the pancreas and correlates it with the celiac, respiratory and intestinal diseases prominent in the condition, also first hypothesizing that cystic fibrosis is a recessive disorder. [11]
Beginning in 1943, reinforcement with cellophane had been used to induce fibrosis in the vessel, decreasing the risk of rupture. Nissen wrapped the aneurysm with cellophane and Einstein recovered from the surgery. [6] Upon his hospital discharge, Einstein was surrounded by photographers and he was photographed with his tongue sticking out at them.
Before his "miracle year" (1905), when Einstein was a patent clerk in Bern, the group of friends met to debate books in the fields of physics and philosophy. The group's origin lay in Einstein's need to offer private lessons in mathematics and physics in order to make a living (in 1901, before he took up his post at the patent office in Bern).
