Not math but could be interesting anyway: Genomics, specifically quality engineering. When hiring for my team we ask candidates to generally describe 1) DNA translation and 2) statistics for experimental design (AQL, RQL, etc).

As personalized medicine becomes more mainstream, it will be important to use accurate terminology in general overviews like OP's website. For example, 23andme does not provide DNA sequencing. Instead, they evaluate samples against a compre

I completely agree with your point, also made in the article: It would be not be surprising if some of these baccalaureate APMs wind up at Yahoo. As the article pointed out, however, It’s not surprising that a high percentage of APMs go

Implementing a rotational leadership program in the mold of GE, Nielsen, Abbot Labs, et al was definitely a great accomplishment for Mayer. I would hesitate, however, to call this a "secret weapon." She would be wise to implement a similar

"Xiaomi appears to have hit a sweet spot in the market, selling high-spec devices that compete with the iPhone on quality, but undercut it substantially in price" This strategy follows Christensen's disruptive innovation to the letter. Inte

I'm surprised the DoD is spending as little as $250MM on this type of Big Data/AI research. Most of the technology outlined in Lemnois' memo is interesting and exciting, rather than intimidating and indicative of "Terminator development." I

I would recommend monitoring for specific hazards. To satisfy New York State Department of Health standards, my laboratory must perform biannual hazard exposure monitoring for all lab personnel. There are personal monitors that assay for a

Are there any graphics in the works? It's fun to click around with as-is, but would be a much better learning tool if one could see the sugar chains be broken down etc. Maybe a flash or spark when a phosphate group is removed from an ATP mo
