Warren Weaver (July 17, 1894 – November 24, 1978) [1] was an American scientist, mathematician, and science administrator. [2] He is widely recognized as one of the pioneers of machine translation and as an important figure in creating support for science in the United States.
In its earliest manifestations, molecular biology—the name was coined by Warren Weaver of the Rockefeller Foundation in 1938 [1] —was an idea of physical and chemical explanations of life, rather than a coherent discipline.
In April 1941, Warren Weaver met with Florey, and they discussed the difficulty of producing sufficient penicillin to conduct clinical trials. Weaver arranged for the Rockefeller Foundation to fund a three-month visit to the United States for Florey and a colleague to explore the possibility of production of penicillin there. [102]
The first ideas of statistical machine translation were introduced by Warren Weaver in 1949, [2] including the ideas of applying Claude Shannon's information theory. Statistical machine translation was re-introduced in the late 1980s and early 1990s by researchers at IBM's Thomas J. Watson Research Center.
Figure 1: Diagram of Mason–Weaver cell and Forces on Solute. A typical particle of mass m moving with vertical velocity v is acted upon by three forces (Fig. 1): the drag force, the force of gravity and the buoyant force, where g is the acceleration of gravity, V is the solute particle volume and is the solvent density.
Life, by David E. Sadava et al., is a 1983 biological science textbook, under continual revision, used at many colleges and universities around the United States of America. [1] As of 2024, it is in its twelfth edition. It is published by W.H. Freeman through MacMillan Learning.

Three sequences, UAG, UGA, and UAA, known as stop codons, [note 1] do not code for an amino acid but instead signal the release of the nascent polypeptide from the ribosome. [7] In the standard code, the sequence AUG—read as methionine—can serve as a start codon and, along with sequences such as an initiation factor, initiates translation.
