  2. Consensus history - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus_history

    Consensus history is a term used to define a style of American historiography and classify a group of historians who emphasize the basic unity of American values and the American national character and downplay conflicts, especially conflicts along class lines, as superficial and lacking in complexity.

  3. Consensus sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus_sequence

    In this example, the notation [CT] does not give any indication of the relative frequency of C or T occurring at that position. And it is not possible to write it as a single consensus sequence e.g. ACNCCA. An alternative method of representing a consensus sequence uses a sequence logo. This is a graphical representation of the consensus ...

  4. Scientific consensus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_consensus

    There are many philosophical and historical theories as to how scientific consensus changes over time. Because the history of scientific change is extremely complicated, and because there is a tendency to project "winners" and "losers" onto the past in relation to the current scientific consensus, it is very difficult to come up with accurate and rigorous models for scientific change. [17]

  5. Consilience - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consilience

    In science and history, consilience (also convergence of evidence or concordance of evidence) is the principle that evidence from independent, unrelated sources can "converge" on strong conclusions. That is, when multiple sources of evidence are in agreement, the conclusion can be very strong even when none of the individual sources of evidence ...

  6. List of superseded scientific theories - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_superseded...

    For example, Newtonian classical mechanics is accurate enough for practical calculations at everyday distances and velocities, and it is still taught in schools. The more complicated relativistic mechanics must be used for long distances and velocities nearing the speed of light , and quantum mechanics for very small distances and objects.

  7. De novo sequence assemblers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_novo_sequence_assemblers

    Early de novo sequence assemblers, such as SEQAID [2] (1984) and CAP [3] (1992), used greedy algorithms, such as overlap-layout-consensus (OLC) algorithms. These algorithms find overlap between all reads, use the overlap to determine a layout (or tiling) of the reads, and then produce a consensus sequence.

  8. TATA box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TATA_box

    The TATA box consensus sequence is TATAWAW, where W is either A or T. In molecular biology, the TATA box (also called the Goldberg–Hogness box) [1] is a sequence of DNA found in the core promoter region of genes in archaea and eukaryotes. [2] The bacterial homolog of the TATA box is called the Pribnow box which has a shorter consensus sequence.

  9. Conflict thesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict_thesis

    The conflict thesis is a historiographical approach in the history of science that originated in the 19th century with John William Draper and Andrew Dickson White.It maintains that there is an intrinsic intellectual conflict between religion and science, and that it inevitably leads to hostility.
