Centrosome dysfunction contributes to chromosome instability, chromoanagenesis, and genome reprograming in cancer.
Pihan GA. Pihan GA. Front Oncol. 2013 Nov 12;3:277. doi: 10.3389/fonc.2013.00277. eCollection 2013. Front Oncol. 2013. PMID: 24282781 Free PMC article. Review.
But it is in mitosis that centrosomes loom large, for they orchestrate, with clockmaker's precision, the assembly and functioning of the mitotic spindle, ensuring the equal partitioning of the replicated genome into daughter cells. ...

Brunelleschi's perspectives reconsidered.
Lynes JA. Lynes JA. Perception. 1980;9(1):87-99. doi: 10.1068/p090087. Perception. 1980. PMID: 7360617
Accounts by Brunelleschi's biographers of the discovery of linear perspective are briefly reexamined. It is suggested that Brunelleschi's familiarity, as a clockmaker, with sundials may have suggested to him a method of drawing perspectives without recourse to geometrical …

Mechanics and mathematicians: George Biddell Airy and the social tensions in constructing time at Parliament, 1845-1860.
Gillin EJ. Gillin EJ. Hist Sci. 2020 Sep;58(3):301-325. doi: 10.1177/0073275319879279. Epub 2019 Oct 21. Hist Sci. 2020. PMID: 31631702
Realizing this scheme engendered the collaboration between Cambridge mathematicians George Biddell Airy and Edmund Beckett Denison, and the clockmaker Edward John Dent. Transforming theoretical mathematical drawings into physical apparatus challenged existing relations bet …

Physics, ballistics, and psychology: a history of the chronoscope in/as context, 1845-1890.
Schmidgen H. Schmidgen H. Hist Psychol. 2005 Feb;8(1):46-78. doi: 10.1037/1093-4510.8.1.46. Hist Psychol. 2005. PMID: 16021765
This setup was initially devised by the English physicist and instrument maker Charles Wheatstone (1802-1875) in the early 1840s. Shortly thereafter, it was improved by the German clockmaker and mechanic Matthaus Hipp (1813-1893). In the 1850s, the chronoscope was introduc …

Perfect in Every Sense. Scientific Iconography on an Equation Clock by Jost Bürgi and the Self-Understanding of the Astronomers at the Kassel Court in the Late 1580s.
Gaulke K. Gaulke K. Nuncius. 2015;30(1):37-74. doi: 10.1163/18253911-03001003. Nuncius. 2015. PMID: 26495584
At the center of this article is an iconographic analysis of the eight silver reliefs on the sides of a table clock made in 1591 by Jost Burgi, the court clockmaker of Landgrave Wilhelm iv of Hessen-Kassel. The reliefs present an astronomical ancestral picture gallery, run …
