Russia has an active program on sunflower research. Krasnodar s agricultural program is similar to that of Texas A M University. Several Central European countries (formerly known as the Eastern Block) have significant knowledge to offer as well but lack adequate resources to provide any useful technical assistance to growers or processors in the region. 

In 1928, in Berlin, where he was a Privatdozent at the University of Berlin and a confidant and partner in practical invention of Albert Einstein, Szilard had read Wells tract The Open Conspiracy. The Open Conspiracy was to be a public collusion of science-minded industrialists and financiers to establish a world republic. Thus to save the world. Szilard appropriated Wells term and used it off" and on for the rest of his life. More to the point, he traveled to London in 1929 to meet Wells and bid for the Central European rights to his books. Given Szilard s ambition he would certainly have discussed much more than publishing rights. But the meeting prompted no immediate further connection. He had not yet encountered the most appealing orphan among Wells Dickensian crowd of tales.

The University of California cyclotrons were major features in Sam Ruben s education and in his research at Berkeley. In 1928 at age twenty-seven, Ernest Orlando Lawrence left Yale University for the University of California at Berkeley to become an Associate Professor of Physics, and at age twenty-nine he was promoted to Full Professor. Also in 1928, Robert Oppenheimer joined the physics department at Berkeley as an assistant professor. By that time, a great deal was known about the structure of atoms there is an extremely small dense central nucleus and a diffuse cloud of electrons distributed about the nucleus. Physicists, then, were strongly interested in developing methods to explore the nature of the nucleus, especially at Cambridge, England, but also at top physics departments in other European countries and... 

The European Commission s Joint Research Centre (JRC) is a source of independent scientific and technical reference for European policy makers, serving the European Commission, the EP, the Council, and the Member States. The JRC s seven scientific institutes carry out research of direct concern to EU citizens, working with industry, universities, other research institutes, and Member States. The JRC is among the European Commission s 36 Directorates-General (DCs). The DCs are specialized services within the European Commission. Examples of other DCs include the Brussels, Belgium-based Directorate General (the JRC s central coordination and administrative body), the Institutional and Scientific Relations Directorate, the Programme and Resource...
