Francis Crick, in full Francis Harry Compton Crick, (born June 8, 1916, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England—died July 28, 2004, San Diego, California, U.S.), British biophysicist, who, with James Watson and Maurice Wilkins, received the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for their determination of the molecular structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), the chemical substance ultimately responsible for hereditary control of life functions. This accomplishment became a cornerstone o...

We read with interest the comments by Gautam and colleagues related to our Personal View, in which we proposed that the usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern found in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and several other interstitial lung disease subtypes transcends the diagnostic labels currently assigned to them since it exhibits striking similarities in disease behaviour and pathogenic profile and invariably affects the clinical course and prognosis.1 However, we do not argue that identical ou...

Increasing numbers of health-care professionals are aware of the need to deliver low-carbon sustainable health systems. We aimed to explore how physicians can be motivated and supported to pursue this ambition by conducting an exploratory qualitative descriptive study that involved individual in-depth interviews with climate-engaged Canadian physicians participating in health-care sustainability advocacy and action. Interview transcripts were analysed to identify themes related to the actions th...
