The total synthesis of quinine was accomplished by Woodward and Doering [18] and others [19] but none of the synthetic methods are economical and, therefore, can not compete with the natural production of quinine; the bark of the cinchona tree is still the only source of the drug. In ...
Earth scientists later made innumerable observations of natural phenomena and interpreted them in an increasingly multidisciplinary manner. The Earth sciences, however, were slow to develop largely because the progress ofsciencewas constrained by whatever society would tolerate or support at any one time....
There are now several distinctive strands of work that critically explore the politics of knowledge surrounding natural resources, including work from feminist, postcolonial, and poststructuralist perspectives. Work in feminist science studies and feminist political ecology, for example, has documented the ...
Fast growing scientific topics have famously been key harbingers of the new frontiers of science, yet, large-scale analyses of their genesis and impact are rare. We investigated one possible factor connected with a topic’s extraordinary growth: scientif
Uncovering the mechanisms governing research activities of individual scientists and their evolution with time is critical for understanding and managing a wide range of issues in science, from training of scientists to collective discovery of new knowledge1,2,3,4,5. The increased availability of larg...

Psychological science is full of interesting topics, many of which tell a coherent picture of human nature, but some of which create seemingly contradictory stories. A case in point is the tricky and misunderstood, overlap(重叠)between strength-based science and the research on narcissism(自恋). ...
The Biology category distinguishes itself from Biotechnology by being more about science (our understanding of the natural world) than applications. Our understanding of biology underlies all biological engineering as well as being a by-product of it. This category will also cover exciting biological ...
Advanced Topics in Science and Technology in China aims to present the latest and most cutting-edge theories, techniques, and methodologies in various research areas in China. It covers all disciplines in the fields of natural science and technology, including but not limited to, computer science,...
In this section, I will briefly talk about some of the most interesting applications of GANs that I have found during the course of my data science research. The most common topics are: (Conditional) Synthesis— This includes font generation, Text2Image, as well as 3D Object generation. ...
