Research
In the 1970s, he used infrared spectroscopy to demonstrate that what was thought to be a newly discovered form of water, polywater, was structurally similar to human sweat. This result suggested that the novel properties of polywater were due to contamination from biological impurities, and later described the proposal of polywater as an example of Pathological science. He is also a pioneer in using Resonance Raman spectroscopy to study heme proteins, notably hemoglobin, Cytochrome c oxidase, Nitric oxide synthase, and the folding of cytochrome c.

Famous quotes containing the word research:
“After all, the ultimate goal of all research is not objectivity, but truth.”
—Helene Deutsch (1884–1982)
“Men talk, but rarely about anything personal. Recent research on friendship ... has shown that male relationships are based on shared activities: men tend to do things together rather than simply be together.... Female friendships, particularly close friendships, are usually based on self-disclosure, or on talking about intimate aspects of their lives.”
—Bettina Arndt (20th century)
“The great question that has never been answered and which I have not get been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is “What does a women want?””
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
