Archers, soldiers, nobles,
and others who are now
before the town of
Orleans, in God's name
return to your own
countries.

And if you will not do so,
await news from the Maid,
who will go to see you
shortly to your very great
misfortune [qui vous ira
veoir briefment a vos
bien grans domages].
Jeanne la Pucelle
Letter to the English,
Poitiers, March 22, 1429

Dragline: Why you got to
  go and say fifty eggs
  for? Why not thirty-five
  or thirty-nine?
Luke: I thought it was a
  nice round number.

I say pressure drop oh
  pressure gonna drop
  on you
I say when it drops
  you gonna feel it.

The wind scatters some
leaves upon the ground,
while others the
burgeoning wood brings
forth — and the season
of spring comes on.

Dave: Open the pod bay
  doors, HAL.
HAL: I'm sorry, Dave. I'm
  afraid I can't do that.
Dave: What's the
  problem?
HAL: I think you know
  what the problem is
  just as well as I do.
...
HAL: Just what do you
  think you're doing,
  Dave?
HAL: Dave, I really think
  I'm entitled to an answer
  to that question.

Walther Nernst: "Here again it was the quantum theory which came to the rescue." Max Planck: "The outside world is something independent from man, something absolute, and the quest for the laws which apply to this absolute appeared to me as the most sublime scientific pursuit in life."

Agenda

Calendar

1. UPSET hardware, dose response,
time course, selectivity

2. Mitochondrial biophotonics

  3. Semiconductor nanocrystal (quantum dot)
      sensors. The higher band-gap shell serves
      as an isolation layer, protecting the
      exciton wave function from nonradiative
      recombination at surface traps.

4. CMOS-compatible carbon nanotube
electrodes

Hydrophobic pore

Fluorescence microscopist

Externalized phosphatidylserine at anode pole

NADH - Glioma C6

Calcium-DOPS-water complex
