The Discovery of the Brain Fresh Air, Segunda-feira, Fevereiro 9, 2004 em 0am Health and Science writer Carl Zimmer's new book is Soul Made Flesh: The Discovery of the Brain-and How it Changed the World. It's about Thomas Willis, the scientist whose research on the workings of the brain during the 17th century became the basis of modern neurology. Zimmer's work appears regularly in The New York Times, National Geographic, Newsweek, Discover, Natural History, and Science. He is also a John S. Guggenheim Fellow and received the Pan-American Health Organization Award for Excellence in International Health Reporting. (Shortride)… (mais)Carl Zimmer tem 4 eventos passados. (show) Science Ink: Tattoos of the Science Obsessed Carl Zimmer assina Science Ink: Tattoos of the Science Obsessed.In his newest book, Science Ink, bestselling author Carl Zimmer tackles an unusual topic: tattoos. Showcasing hundreds of eye-catching tattoos that pay tribute to various scientific disciplines, from evolutionary biology to astrophysics—Zimmer reveals the stories of individuals who express their science passions through body art. Each tattoo provides a leaping-off point for Zimmer to reflect on the science in question, from the importance of Darwin's finches or the significance of the uranium atom inked into the chest of a young radiologist. Free and open to the public, Harvard Museum of Natural History, 24 Oxford Street. Booksigning to follow. Free parking available in the 52 Oxford Street garage.

In Microcosm: E. coli and the New Science of Life, Zimmer explores how this microbe, known to most of us for its deadly outbreaks, is actually leading scientists to a new understanding of what it means to be alive. Discover the pivotal role E. coli has played in the history of biology and explore how it continues to lead the way in the search for life-saving drugs, clean fuel, and a deeper understanding of our own genetic makeup and the history of life. A book signing will immediately follow the presentation. (Noisy)… (mais) Carl Zimmer Carl Zimmer lê-se de Microcosm: E. coli and the New Science of Life.Harvard Book Store is pleased to welcome New York Times science writer CARL ZIMMER to tell the story of the one species on earth science knows best of all, E. coli: • Within days of being born, we are infected with billions of E. coli. They will inhabit each and every one of us until we die. E. coli is notorious for making people gravely ill, but engineered strains of the bacteria save millions of lives each year.
• Despite its microscopic size, it contains over four thousand genes that operate a staggeringly sophisticated network of millions of molecules.
• Scientists are rebuilding E. coli from the ground up, redefining what it means to be alive.
In the tradition of classics like Lewis Thomas' Lives of a Cell, Zimmer has written a fascinating and accessible investigation into what it means to be alive. Zimmer traces E. coli's remarkable history, as scientists used it to discover how genes work and then to launch the entire biotechnology industry. While some strains of E. coli grab headlines by causing deadly diseases, scientists are retooling the bacteria to produce everything from human insulin to jet fuel.
