But, for all their willingness to make such experiments, the Swiss still clamp down hard on drug users and dealers.
My experiments make use of sophisticated spectroscopy measurements of resonance energy transfer, to help gauge the accuracy of computational simulations of protein dynamics.
Even tiny errors ruin experiments or make manufactured drugs poisonous.
If his venture succeeds, he also gains the power--through profits--to make further investments, further experiments in light of his initial venture.
Still worse, NBC lacks the handful of longer-running hits to make up for those failed experiments and to promote the new ones.
FORBES: 'Harry's Law' Honcho David E. Kelley Lowers Our Expectations
Men tended to make riskier choices in these experiments, which led researchers to conclude the women in general have less appetite for risk.
Now to help facilitate the growth of robot scientists for routine, automated experiment, King and his team are urging that the methods and processes of science be formalized, to remove the ambiguities of natural language and make it easier to reproduce experiments and build the bases of knowledge.
Third, use private cloud infrastructure for experiments in how to make applications better and more responsive.
FORBES: How CIOs and CTOs should Improve their Businesses with the Private Cloud
The agency treats genetically engineered products as though they pose some inherent, systematic, unique risks, when theoretical considerations, risk-assessment experiments and practical experience make it clear that they do not: A quarter-century-old scientific consensus holds that the molecular techniques of genetic engineering are an extension, or refinement, of less precise and predictable techniques for genetically improved products with which consumers and government regulators have long familiarity and comfort.

Past experiments have shown it to make viruses -- including the H5N1 bird flu virus -- more likely to infect ferrets, which are commonly used in flu research.
The Recombinant DNA Advisory Committee, a division of the National Institutes of Health that approves all gene therapy experiments, has yet to make a decision on whether this technique should move into the clinic.
Repeated trials are likely to be better than one-off experiments in this respect: people make fewer straightforward mistakes at the end of 20 reps than at the beginning.
Membership will make it much easier for British scientists to propose experiments and to get access to facilities like a zero-G plane, which generates short periods of weightlessness by flying a series of parabolas in the sky.
Science uses inductive reasoning to make sweeping generalizations about the universe from a few data points called experiments.

Make no mistake, society will be the better for all the experiments being tried, but expect nearly all to fail on economic grounds.
Murray Gell-Mann performed a similar trick 50 years ago in an attempt to make sense of the plethora of particles that was then emerging from experiments.
ECONOMIST: A shape could describe the cosmos and all it contains
And today, as we are beginning to get better assessments of the results of policies from experiments and empirical investigations, politicians can be expected to make these facts known.
FORBES: More Campaign Spending Will Strengthen Our Democracy
