Peut-on se passer de l’expérimentation animale ? Si cela s'avère encore difficile dans certains domaines de recherche, des alternatives commencent à voir le jour. C'est notamment le cas à Strasbourg, où des biologistes travaillent à reconstruire une peau artificielle à partir de cellules humaines. Objectif : créer un modèle qui possède les mêmes propriétés que notre organe et
The LSST Camera is the largest digital camera ever built for astronomy and astrophysics. It was completed at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in 2024.

As a schoolchild, she had delighted in using a pendulum to make drawings in her exercise books, but it was not until midlife that she found in this process a portal to a larger world of ideas.
