Beyond Einstein's theory of gravitation?
Article Abstract:
Einstein's theory of gravitation is not consistent with quantum physics and his geometric representation of space time consists of a set of tensor quantities only. The Brans-Dicke theory, however, has a scalar component also. The structure of this component led to its decay during the evolution of the universe. But, a satellite gyroscope invented by Benjamin Lange might be able to measure traces of the scalar component. The measurements will prove that the laws of gravitation in the beginning of the universe were different from what they are today.

Directory to the human genome
Article Abstract:
Publishers of Nature will be distributing a free copy of J. Craig Venter's latest compilation of expressed sequence tags, which is printed despite objections by a US leading geneticist, to their subscribers as an supplement with volume # 377 upon request in the month of August 1995. The Genome Directory will also include physical maps of four human chromosomes to project the fast advancement in refining of the physical map of the human genome as well as the latest map of the human genome.
