Because I am not formally trained in the medical sciences, I can bring in new ideas to AIDS research and the cross-fertilization of ideas from different fields could be a valuable contribution to finding the cure for AIDS. – Philip Emeagwali
I introduced myself to then-Lieutenant General Petraeus and told him about my research interests; he gave me his card and offered to put me in touch with other researchers and service members working on the same issues. – Paula Broadwell
Here I was into astronomy, and here into anthropology, and there I go into geology. It was much more fun to be able to research and write about whatever I wanted to. – Octavia Butler
It is time my colleagues got real. All British universities doing worthwhile research use animals, and, instead of hiding, they should be boasting of their achievements. – Robert Winston
Some of the most common pitfalls I see occur when authors don’t check their privilege. Billions are living in a personal apocalypse right this second, so a little research and empathy can go a long way toward developing a convincing world. – Rae Carson
After Secretary Clinton announced in January 2010 that Internet freedom would be a major pillar of U.S. foreign policy, the State Department decided to take what Clinton calls a ‘venture capital’ approach to the funding of tools, research, public information projects, and training. – Rebecca MacKinnon
Most of my ideas are based on the latest research on productivity, performance and mental mastery – that’s why so many iconic companies bring me in to help them grow and win. – Robin S. Sharma
So maybe with the research robots that are out there, people will come up with ways to use them to take care of the elderly. And that can help me someday. Because, you know what? I’m heading in that direction. – Rodney Brooks
Humans are born with a hard-wired morality: a sense of good and evil is bred in the bone. I know this claim might sound outlandish, but it’s supported now by research in several laboratories. – Paul Bloom
Space exploration is important research to our economic and national defense, and America’s space program is a symbol of our success as a scientifically and technologically advanced nation. – Randy Forbes
As neither of these two great research scientists was able to find the solution to the mystery, it is small wonder that none of their contemporaries were able to do so either. – Robert Barany
A few months into my research, General Petraeus, who was then leading Central Command, invited me to go for a run with him and his team along the Potomac River during one of his visits to Washington. I figured I could interview him while we ran. – Paula Broadwell
My first real venture was a paintball company I started in Grade 10, when I was 16. After hearing about it from a friend, I realized my town didn’t have a playing field. I did some research, spoke with other paintball company owners, and I started my own field the following summer. – Ryan Holmes
Astonishingly, in spite of decades of research, there is no agreed theory of cancer, no explanation for why, inside almost all healthy cells, there lurks a highly efficient cancer subroutine that can be activated by a variety of agents – radiation, chemicals, inflammation and infection. – Paul Davies
The field of ageing research is full of characters. We have hucksters claiming that cures for ageing can be bought and sold; prophetic seers, their hands extended for money, warning that immortality is nigh; and would-be Nobelists working methodically in laboratories in search of a pill to slow ageing. – S. Jay Olshansky
For scientists, growing cells took so much work that they couldn’t get much research done. So the selling of cells was really just for the sake of science, and there weren’t a lot of profits. – Rebecca Skloot
Embryonic stem cell research is legal in America, and nothing in the administration’s current policy affects that legality; 400 lines are currently being used to conduct embryonic stem cell research, both in the private sector and by the Federal Government. – Roger Wicker
The whole structure of science gradually grows, but only as it is built upon a firm foundation of past research. – Owen Chamberlain
I recognized that teaching and research institutions vitally depend on the involvement of active scientists also in management functions. – Richard Ernst
More important is the fact that embryonic stem cell research could lead to new treatments and cures for the many Americans afflicted with life-threatening and debilitating diseases. – Ron Kind
I joined Bell Laboratories at Crawford Hill in 1963 as part of A. B. Crawford’s Radio Research department in R. Kompfner’s laboratory. – Robert Woodrow Wilson
I think that when you’re making a story… that’s based on somebody, the filmmaker has his duty to do his research. – Ryan Coogler
Now, ignorance is one thing, ignorance can be cured. But many of the Republican leaders opposing this research know better. – Ron Reagan
I’m allergic to the word ‘important’ in film and theatre. Cancer research is important. – Robert Sean Leonard
But what many psychologists have done, probably because they did well on a test themselves and everyone wants high self esteem, is to create this little box and then do their research inside it. – Robert Sternberg
I ended up working in Michigan for a young company called Sycor out of Michigan, worked there, and that company got bought by Northern Telecom. We became the Bell Northern Research Labs of Northern Telecom. – Ram Shriram
The choice is not between conducting the stem cell research or not conducting it. That is not the choice. – Roger Wicker
