Something to think about...

I love the fact that the journal in which the paper was published has a typo in the name...

what typo? there is no typo that I can spot!

Good to see "The Netherlands" not in the top list... Btw Fraud detection becoming hot potato in EU funding...

not surprising since usually EC staff has no clue what people do with their funds once the are allocated ... as long as there is a report and a website :-)

"Cardiologists had been so focused on immediately measurable arrhythmias that they had overlooked the longer-term but far more important variable of death." lol

Gotta love the scientific method :)

Have to remember this very useful sentence...

haha

Understanding life is the scientific focus of the next Europa/Ganimede mission!

the objective is rather the study of "emergence of habitable worlds", which of course includes understanding of life and what habitability is ...

According to the company's wikipedia page, the computer costs $ 10 million. Can we then declare Quantum Computing has officially arrived?! quotes from elsewhere in the site: "first commercial quantum computing system on the market"; "our current superconducting 128-qubit processor chip is housed inside a cryogenics system within a 10 square meter shielded room" Link to the company's scientific publications. Interestingly, this company seems to have been running a BOINC project, AQUA@home, to "predict the performance of superconducting adiabatic quantum computers on a variety of hard problems arising in fields ranging from materials science to machine learning. AQUA@home uses Internet-connected computers to help design and analyze quantum computing algorithms, using Quantum Monte Carlo techniques". List of papers coming out of it.

This journal publishes failed scientific attempts, experiments, theories. There seems to be a peer review process behind it.

OK more to the fun side, but I often think it is not a bad idea to publish "failed" research

online game developed by Thales as part of improving their recruitment!! who want's to give it a try (in your spare time in the nights of course ....) reminds me of the idea that we have been bouncing around since some time on the use of games for engaging students in our scientific research ...

not scientific but nice, Alien trailer voted best of all

The work of a german photographer on forms in plant. Inspiring but not scientific.

A collection of crazy scientific ideas.

is a groundbreaking weekly publication that provides a timely, concise, and understandable analysis of the scientific content and commercial potential of the most important translational research papers from across the life science literature.

find your scientific ancestors !

Very interesting analysis of scientific fields and their interconnections

Functional classification of knowledge is a very effective way of stripping away boundaries between different industries and scientific disciplines. The function database provides descriptions, examples and animations for all known effects that can produce a function.

This is an article on the problems of defining a scientific term. Or better how people can argue when trying to agree on a definition. Rather funny than important

not sure how scientific this is since from the independent but ...

we should maybe try this in the team to see if the scientific output increases :-) ... LS
