Introduction to the Symposium ‘Applying Science’
International Studies in the Philosophy of Science, 2006Science is expected to solve a variety of human and societal problems, ranging from climate forecasting, ground purification, crop protection, cancer treatment, and flood control—to name a few. Solving such problems requires reliable knowledge relevant to the particular problem at hand. However, science by itself does not provide off-theshelf solutions,

It is a great honour, and a great responsibility, to be invited to give one of the Installation Lectures on this auspicious occasion. I am ill qualified for this task; but at least I may justly claim that the subject on which I have chosen to speak is one that is of the greatest importance to every university in every part of the world.

Technology and Culture, 1966
The application of the scientific method and of scientific theories of the attainment of practical goals poses interesting philosophical problems, such as the nature of technological knowledge, the alleged validating power of action, the relation of technological rule to scientific law, and the effects of technological forecast on human behavior. These

The primary objective of every coach is to guide the learning process, encouraging progressive improvements in practice performance that transfer to the competitive environment. When a gap emerges between the performance observed in practice and competition, an athlete is often labeled as ‘choking.’ However, from a skill acquisition standpoint, this ...

Applying science to drug discovery
Biochemical Society Transactions, 2006Scientists and science in the pharmaceutical industry rely heavily on the more academically orientated basic research carried out at Universities, for first of all training, but also as a source of new ideas and approaches to drug discovery. Progress in the discovery and development of novel therapeutics benefits from a healthy alliance with, and the ...
