Manufacturing Scientific Uncertainty

The Law stipulates the unity of science of higher education, rights, responsibility, independence and academic freedom of subjects of scientific activity, professional and social guarantees, the competence and commitment of public agencies in ensuring scientific activity.

(h) Tensor development of methods of ascertaining the dynamic characteristics of the ISS that are necessary to increase the precision of its orientation, prediction of the functioning of the on board systems and proper conduct of scientific experiments

The goal of the symposium was to identify a comprehensive and interdisciplinary strategy in science and culture.

In 1967, the Scientific and Technical Subcommittee had concluded that it was impossible to identify scientific or technical criteria permitting a precise definition or demarcation of outer space.

Of course, climate science is not precise instead, it works in terms of probability ranges. But uncertain estimates do not mean that the risk is any less acute.

The MES determines the maximum loan amount for each study programme.

The MES determines those subjects in the educational programmes of minorities that are to be studied in the state language.

In secondary schools and faculties (universities) women mostly choose humanities, while men usually choose technical and natural mathematical sciences.

The manufacturing of scientific uncertainty endangers the public s health, as well as programs to protect public health and to compensate victims. It is time to return to first principles use the best science available, but do not demand certainty where it does not exist.

The four day symposium, attended by world renowned scholars, was held in commemoration of the fiftieth and twentieth anniversaries, respectively, of UNESCO and UNU, for the purpose of identifying a truly comprehensive and interdisciplinary strategy in science and culture in face of the challenges of the twenty first century.

Today s understanding of Earth s climate and the human induced component of climate change is the result of extremely difficult scientific work involving many thousands of scientists in all parts of the world. This scientific understanding is incomplete, and there remain significant uncertainties about the precise magnitudes, timing, and dangers of climate change.

Now I'm not even sure if we should brand the subject as math, but what I am sure is it's the mainstream subject of the future.

To be sure, in the laboratory, scientists use animals in controlled experimental conditions to investigate the workings of toxic agents. But, like epidemiological evidence, laboratory studies have many uncertainties, and scientists must extrapolate from study specific evidence to make judgments about causation and recommend protective measures.

Recognizing the importance of science and technology in promoting gender equality and the empowerment of women,

Chemistry is not an exact science, he said.

The conference will be of a practical, scientific nature.

In my view, not only is science corrosive to religion religion is corrosive to science.

While basic space science benefited from various general provisions of outer space law through reference to the international scientific community, no special provision had been made in its favour.

What about scientific discovery?

Today s dynamic complexity, in which a science based, fast changing global economy makes so many more phenomena interdependent, prevents us from foreseeing the future through linear extrapolations of the past. The only certainty is that the future will be defined by scientific progress and innovation, which cannot be known ahead of time.

57. Materials science is the study of the principles that govern the useful properties of substances.

Initiatives to encourage women to study Science and Technology

24. Belarus wished to stress the extreme importance of upholding the principles of scientific competence and ensuring greater transparency in the activities of the Scientific Committee.

The analysis, by GOEIC, of all incoming chemical shipments and samples for which no scientific name is provided in order to identify their contents, indicate their scientific name and ascertain whether or not they are classified as explosive materials, provided that the scientific name shall include all the particulars indicated in the international hazardous material code, namely

The maximum student contribution for units of study in these disciplines, which are traditionally dominated by women, has been set at the former contribution rates to ensure that these units of study remain exempt from any increases.

The Faculties of the Sciences of Nature and the Humanities and the University of Sciences and Technology were headed by women.

It assigns priority to setting scientific norms and standards identifying and developing best practices for drug testing and analysis and ensuring that laboratory services and scientific expertise are integrated fully into national drug control frameworks.

Identify the instruments the Government will use to fulfil its obligation to support scientific and technological research.

The Scientific Committee might consider the possibility of undertaking research on individual countries and of giving technical assistance in determining radioactive contamination levels in countries that might request such help.

These dialogue efforts are aimed at providing more open, participatory mechanisms to define key needs for new scientific knowledge and technological innovation.

The Association of Academies of Sciences in Asia (AASA), a regional association of 18 science academies, has a relevant constitution (http www.aasa net.org intro cons.asp).

The responsible administrative institutions must ensure that the minimum number of schools prescribed by the MES is managed and maintained in their subordination.

(iv) Strengthen science and technology educational systems, including through strong gender policies ensuring equal access to technological and scientific studies, appropriate funding, the introduction of entrepreneurial skills and attention to relevant intellectual property rights issues, and provide science and technology graduates with incentives and resources for starting innovative enterprises, with a view to improving gainful employment

Science and Technology programme

Sex content of textbooks.

Yes, but then it would have to be something purely scientific.

School textbooks contain many stereotyped images and representations of the sexes.

(e) The Assessment of Assessments will need to acknowledge uncertainties there may be gaps in scientific knowledge and in data and these should be identified.

(c) Recognizing the career needs of scientists.

The difference between the two principles is most clearly apparent in their implications for the relationship between science and technology. Precautionary policymakers invoke scientific uncertainty to curb technological innovation, whereas their proactionary counterparts encourage innovation as an extension of scientific hypothesis testing.

Hey, science is hard, too! But, in line with the logic of natural selection, to become sexually attractive, the scientist only has make sure that the results of his or her work are useless.
