Administration Reports, Science

The results of NSF-sponsored research activities are reported mainly in the journals of the professional societies. Additional information is disseminated through NSF s own series of reports Manpower and Education Reports, Research and Development Reports, Science Administration Reports, Science Information Exchange Reports, and Annual Reports. 

Meyers D Rifaximin Study of Effect on Embryo-Fetal Toxicity in the Rabbit by Oral Gavage Administration. Report Amendment 1. Eye, Huntington Life Sciences, 2001. 

The project group discussed the topics covered in this report with the members of other advisory boards and with speciahsts in the fields of public administration, politics, science and scholarship, and business (insurance and law).TTie original report in Dutch provides a detailed list of the experts consulted. The WRR is grateful that they have been willing to share their knowledge and insights. Many of them also produced valuable comments on earlier drafts of the present document.

The entire basis of medicine is, quite properly, moving from the art of medicine to the science of medicine, and the reporting of clinical events observed while a patient is receiving a drug should reflect this change of attitude. At the time of observation, apart possibly from a temporal relationship between the administration of a drug and the event, there may be no other evidence on which to base an attribution of causality. In these circumstances, it would be correct to term the observation an event and not a reaction, the latter term being strictly reserved for the situation in which a causal relationship has been reasonably established. The vast majority of spontaneous reports, apart from those... 

Often EPA has ignored scientific evidence and bona fide public health considerations in favor of unsubstantiated fears expressed by influential special-interest groups. As long ago as 1992, an expert panel commissioned by then-EPA Administrator William Reilly reported (i) The science advice function—that is, the pro-...

MAJOR limitation TO research on surface-exchange and flux measurements is the lack of sensitive, reliable, and fast-response chemical species sensors that can be used for eddy correlation flux measurement. Therefore we recommend that continued effort and resources be expended in developing chemical species sensors with the responsiveness and sensitivity required for direct eddy correlation flux measurements. This recommendation (I) was assigned the first priority in the report of the recent Global Tropospheric Chemistry workshop jointly convened by the National Science Foundation, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The authors of the report recognized that the limited availability of fast, accurate chemical sensors is a major measurement challenge in the field of atmospheric chemistry.

The first copies of Remer s version were sent to various notable personalities in politics, justice, and science on April 16, 1993,653 On the same day, Prof. Dr. Hanns F. Zacher, President of the Max-Planck-Corporation (MPG), received a call from the Chairman of the Directorate of the Zentralrat der Juden in Deutschland (Central Council of Jews in Germany), Ignatz Bubis, in which Herr Bubis told Prof. Zacher of his concern about the effect of the Rudolf Report by Diplom-Chemist Germar Rudolf, at that time an MPG employee.654 It is not known what Prof. Zacher did in response to the call. In any case there was no attempt by the MPG administration to terminate Rudolf s employment at that time. 

The creation of LEAA followed from the President s Crime Commission Report of 1967 which also recommended the greater utilization of physical evidence in the administration of criminal justice. The greatest proportion of LEAA funds in the forensic science area has been channeled down through the various state planning agencies in the form of block and discretion-... 

Figure 1.11, prepared by the U.S. Energy Information Administration, describes the global carbon cycle. It provides data that was collected in 2001. Since that date, the yearly anthropogenic carbon emissions (measured in carbon equivalent terms) increased from 6.3 to about 9 billion metric tons (over 1 ton per capita in the world). In November 2007, the National Academy of Science reported actual emissions for 2006 as 8.4 billion tons. Carbon equivalent means that the emission of 3.7 tons of COz is counted as the emission of 1 ton of carbon, so the 8.4 billion tons per year of carbon that enters the atmosphere owing to fossil fuel combustion corresponds to 33 billion tons per year of C02 because of the molecular weight ratio of COz to carbon (44/12).
