"Das Ergebnis: Die Teilnehmer erkannten die ursprünglichen Männerfotos viel schlechter, wenn sie falsch herum gezeigt wurden. Bei den Frauenfotos war das nicht der Fall. Tatsächlich machte es kaum einen Unterschied, ob die Frauen auf dem Kopf standen oder nicht. Männer werden eher als Personen wahrgenommen Die Schlussfolgerung der Forscher: Männer werden eher als Personen, Frauen hingegen eher als Objekte wahrgenommen, schreiben sie im Fachmagazin "Psychological Science". Das Erstaunliche: "Wir können das nicht nur auf die Männer schieben. Frauen nehmen andere Frauen auf die gleiche Weise war", erläutert Sarah Gervais, Professorin für Psychologie an der amerikanischen University of Nebraska und Mitautorin der Studie."

"Based on data from a randomized sample of universities and online volunteers who completed a survey, men and women who pursue STEM degrees tend to become interested in science in elementary school. When asked which people and experiences helped to spark their interest, women were more likely than men to select a teacher, a class at school, solving math problems and spending time outdoors, whereas men were more influenced by tinkering, building and reading. As men and women enter college, passion for the field far outweighs all other influences as the main reason for their persistence"

"The SOS-Ras-Raf-MAPK cascade plays a central role here. In about 25% of human tumors, Ras proteins are present in structurally altered forms that enable them to release a flux of mitogenic signals into cells, without ongoing stimulation by their normal upstream regulators (Medema and Bos 1993). We suspect that growth signaling pathways suffer deregulation in all"

"Since cancers have individual clonal karyotypes, are immortal and evolve from normal cells treated by carcinogens only after exceedingly long latencies of many months to decades-we deduce that carcinogenesis may be a form of speciation. This theory proposes that carcinogens initiate carcinogenesis by causing aneuploidy, i.e., losses or gains of chromosomes. Aneuploidy destabilizes the karyotype, because it unbalances thousands of collaborating genes including those that synthesize, segregate and repair chromosomes. Driven by this inherent instability aneuploid cells evolve ever-more random karyotypes automatically. Most of these perish, but a very small minority acquires reproductive autonomy-the primary characteristic of cancer cells and species"

""Our results suggest that autistic children are not interested in social interactions because their brains generate more information at rest, which we interpret as more introspection in line with early descriptions of the disorder," said Roberto Fernández Galán"

"But over the century-plus that the prize has been awarded, the Nobel Committees have increasingly seen fit to reward not discoveries, but technological innovations that enable more discoveries. After all, these might confer a greater "benefit to mankind" than any individual discovery. Two examples: PCR and GFP"

"Europa und insbesondere auch Oberösterreich steuern auf einen massiven Technikermangel zu. Bereits jetzt fällt es den oberösterreichischen Betrieben schwer, genügend qualifizierte Techniker zu finden und der Mangel nimmt weiter zu. In den nächsten Jahren kommt es euro-paweit zu einer Pensionierungswelle an hochqualifizierten Technikern und aus den Univer-sitäten und Fachhochschulen kommen zu wenige Ingenieure nach. Verschärft wird diese Situa-tion noch durch den demografischen Wandel. Weiters haben die österreichischen Jugendli-chen im Quervergleich mit allen EU 27 eine negativere Einstellung zu Technik und Engineering als der EU-Durchschnitt (Flash Eurobarometer „Young people and science" 09/2008).

"There is a "significant credibility gap" between researchers' expectations and the likelihood of their forging long-term careers in higher education, a survey has found. More than three-quarters of research staff responding to the Careers in Research Online Survey 2013 said they aspired to a career in higher education and around two-thirds said they expected to achieve this. But it was "unrealistic to expect" that this number of research staff, or even half of those in the early stages of their career, would be able to secure a long-term research role in higher education, says the report, based on the survey produced by Vitae, the careers organisation for researchers."

"Postdocs are very small and hard to see. If you encounter a postdoc in the wild, approach with extreme caution! You can frighten away a postdoc by asking, "Shouldn't you be in the lab?""

"Leibniz-Gemeinschaft zum Thema "Nutzung von Social-Media-Instrumenten" beteiligt. Ziel war es typisches Nutzungsverhalten zu identifizieren.

"Mao's support of Chinese medicine was inspired by political necessity. In a 1950 speech (unwittingly echoed by the Senate's concerns about "providing health care to underserved populations"), he said: Our nation's health work teams are large. They have to concern themselves with over 500 million people [including the] young, old, and ill. … At present, doctors of Western medicine are few, and thus the broad masses of the people, and in particular the peasants, rely on Chinese medicine to treat illness. Therefore, we must strive for the complete unification of Chinese medicine"
