GRB 211211A is a long gamma-ray burst detected on 11 December 2021 by Swift and Fermi, lasting over 50 seconds yet showing kilonova emission consistent with a compact-object merger at about 346 megaparsecs.

GRB 221009A

GRB 221009A is a long-duration gamma-ray burst detected on 9 October 2022, the brightest ever observed, nicknamed the BOAT for brightest of all time, occurring about two billion light-years from Earth.

GRB 970228

GRB 970228 was a gamma-ray burst detected on 28 February 1997 by the satellite BeppoSAX, the first burst with an X-ray afterglow and optical counterpart.

GRB 970508

GRB 970508 was a gamma-ray burst detected on 8 May 1997, the first of its class with a measured distance, at redshift 0.835, settling whether bursts are cosmological.

GRB 971214

GRB 971214, a gamma-ray burst detected in December 1997, had a host galaxy at redshift z = 3.42 and an implied energy near 3 × 10^53 erg.

GRB 980703

GRB 980703 was a long-duration gamma-ray burst detected on July 3, 1998, whose afterglow produced the third known host-galaxy redshift, z = 0.966, and an energy of about 10^53 erg.

GRB 990123

GRB 990123 was a gamma-ray burst detected on 23 January 1999, the first burst simultaneously caught in visible light, with an apparent energy exceeding a neutron star's rest-mass energy.

GRB 990510

GRB 990510 was a long-duration gamma-ray burst detected on 10 May 1999 in the constellation Chamaeleon, whose afterglow yielded the first linear polarization measurement of any burst.

GRB 991216

GRB 991216 is an extremely bright gamma-ray burst detected on 16 December 1999, notable for the first unambiguous detection of X-ray emission lines from a burst afterglow.

GRB2

GRB2 (growth factor receptor-bound protein 2) is a 25 kDa adaptor protein with one SH2 and two SH3 domains that links receptor tyrosine kinases to SOS and Ras–MAPK signaling, and is targeted in cancer therapy by the antisense drug BP1001.

Grbl

Grbl is a free, open-source CNC firmware, released under GPLv3, that turns an Arduino Uno into a motion controller: it interprets G-code, plans acceleration, and drives stepper motors.

GRC 15300 (SAR292833)

GRC 15300, or SAR292833, was a first-in-class TRPV3 channel antagonist for chronic pain, discovered by Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, licensed to Sanofi in 2010, and discontinued in 2014.

GRC 17536

GRC 17536 (ISC 17536) is Glenmark's oral TRPA1 antagonist, a thienopyrimidinedione tested in Phase 2a for painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy; it failed overall but helped a preserved-nerve-function subgroup, and development was limited by poor bioavailability.

GRC 27864 (ISC 27864)

GRC 27864 (ISC 27864, zaloglanstat) is Glenmark's oral mPGES-1 inhibitor for osteoarthritic pain; Phase 2b trial in 624 Indian patients completed enrollment in 2019.

GRC 6211

GRC 6211, also written GRC-6211, was Glenmark Pharmaceuticals' oral TRPV1 antagonist pain drug licensed to Eli Lilly in 2007 for $45 million upfront; it reached Phase II osteoarthritis and dental pain trials before discontinuation in 2008.

Grc Sinogreen

GRC SinoGreen, also known as Grand River Capital, is a China-focused venture capital firm founded in 2005 by Eric Wang and Benjamin Jen to invest in cleantech startups.

Gré de Jongh

Gré de Jongh (Grietje de Jongh, 1924–2002), Dutch sprinter of AV Zaanland; two-time Olympian (1948, 1952) in 100 m, 200 m, and 4x100 m relay, and 1950 European Championships relay silver medallist.

Grease (film)

Grease, also known as Grease Movie, is a 1978 American musical film directed by Randal Kleiser and adapted from the 1971 stage musical by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey.

Grease (lubricant)

Grease is a semi-solid lubricant made by dispersing a thickener in a lubricating oil with additives, so it stays in place instead of draining away like oil.

Grease (musical)

Grease is a 1971 rock 'n' roll musical by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey about 1959 teenagers at Rydell High, also known by its film version with John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. It ran 3,388 Broadway performances and was the longest-running Broadway musical until A Chorus Line.
