Her students drill core samples and swab the walls with Q-Tips, daubing them onto petri dishes.
No, instead we are coerced into carrying portable petri dishes, spreading bacteria, and no doubt, some sickness and death.
FORBES: In D.C., 'Skip The Bag, Save The River' Is Making Us All Sick
And there are policy lessons in the local Petri dishes, too.
Okarma said FDA scrutiny was stringent, and that researchers studied the cells in petri dishes and in animals before obtaining permission to test them in humans.
In the Oceans programme, presenter Lucy Blue is seen hanging out over the end of a small boat with Petri dishes attached to a long pole.
The first light-activated neurons were cultivated as layers of cells in Petri dishes, but researchers were quickly able to make the technique work in flies, worms, zebrafish, mice, and monkeys.
WSJ: Scientists Cast Light Onto Roots of Illness Deep in the Brain
They act as giant petri dishes, where creative types and entrepreneurs rub up against each other, combining and recombining to spark new ideas, new inventions, new businesses and new industries.
The microbiome, made much easier to study by new DNA-sequencing technology (which lets you distinguish between bugs without having to grow them on Petri dishes), is thus a trendy area of science.
The samples were contained in petri dishes and the bacteria multiplied within 48 hours, so much so that they became visible to the naked eye as 300 to 400 tiny dots, Godard said.
It is a long way from there to a treatment, but Dr Chapman has made the trick work in mice as well as Petri dishes (injecting the complex does, indeed, stop macrophages recruiting).
Then of course the process of propagating machine learning about that weakness can go on, and as new threats are understood your petri dishes get better, your anomaly analyses get better and you just move on forward that way.
FORBES: Why Most Companies Are Fighting The Wrong Security Battle
Two international forums over the weekend, one in Munich and the other in New York, served as petri dishes for festering anti-Americanism which tends to flourishes most when foreign governments sense Washington can be talked out of an announced policy direction.
CENTERFORSECURITYPOLICY: Dangerous mixed signals on the 'Axis of Evil'
Caves were thought to be essentially devoid of life until six years ago, when the renowned University of Colorado microbiologist Norman Pace, also an avid caver, discovered a way to identify extremophile microorganisms by cloning and sequencing unique sections of their DNA. Prior to Pace's work biologists had fruitlessly tried to cultivate these microorganisms with traditional lab techniques using nutrient-rich petri dishes.
