Virtual crash dummy to make driving much safer

  10:12:00 PM    

Automakers have been crashing test dummies to gain insight into how safety systems protect or fail to protect people during car accidents. But these dummies made out of plastic and steel, not tissue and bone, have their limitations.

Updating the Science of Global Warming: A Q&A with Marine Biologist Katherine Richardson

  9:09:00 AM    

ARTICLEURL Will it be a consensus document? The scientific community is notoriously divided. But we will speak with one voice. And there will be a review process by outside researchers of this synthesis document to make sure that it is the best science. There will be mechanisms to make sure that this is not just one researcher's opinion. But the strength of the IPCC is that it's not just the scientists,...
