Chemists explain the switchboards in our cells
Our cells are controlled by billions of molecular "switches" and chemists at UC Santa Barbara have developed a theory that explains how these molecules work. view more (2009-08-04)
Ground-breaking research to develop 'conscious' robot
Researchers at the Universities of Essex and Bristol will soon be launching a ground-breaking project to develop a 'conscious' robot. The aim of the project, which involves computer scientists and neuropsychologists, is to advance the technology of intelligent machines, while also extending the understanding of human consciousness. Owen Holland,... view more... (2003-08-22)
Jefferson Scientists Uncover Lethal Gene Mutation Key to Blocking Cholesterol Processing
When Jefferson Medical College researcher Shiu-Ying Ho, Ph.D., and her colleagues first created a mutation that limited the absorption of lipids and cholesterol into the bloodstream in zebrafish, the possibilities seemed endless. view more (2006-04-20)
A double-barreled immune cell approach for neuroblastoma
Adding an artificial tumor-specific receptor to immune system cells called T-lymphocytes that target a particular virus extended and improved the cells' ability to fight a form of childhood cancer called neuroblastoma, said researchers form Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital in a report that appears online today in the... view more...

Metamaterials with new electromagnetic properties
The development of new types of artificial materials, known as "metamaterials" and with electromagnetic properties not found in nature, is the aim of the Metamorphose Excellence European Network, of which the Public University of Navarre forms part, together with twenty-one other research institutions from 13 European countries. view more (2004-03-25)
Findings reveal how dengue virus matures, becomes infectious
Biologists at Purdue University have determined why dengue virus particles undergo structural changes as they mature in host cells and how the changes are critical for enabling the virus to infect new host cells. view more (2008-03-28)
1 small step for neurons, 1 giant leap for nerve cell repair
The repair of damaged nerve cells is a major problem in medicine today. A new study by researchers at the Montreal NeurologicaI Institute and Hospital (The Neuro) and McGill University, is a significant advance towards a solution for neuronal repair. view more (2009-10-08)
Less can be more, for plant breeders too
Imagine you are a rice breeder and one day within a large field you discover a plant that has just the characteristics you have been looking for. You happily take your special plant to the laboratory where you find out that the spontaneous, beneficial event was due to inactivation of a single gene. view more (2008-03-20)
Scientists take a step nearer to creating an artificial egg using a somatic cell
Scientists believe that they are an important step nearer to success in creating an artificial egg from the combination of the nucleus of a somatic cell and an oocyte which has had its DNA-carrying nucleus removed, a conference of international fertility experts heard today (Tuesday 1 July). Dr Peter Nagy, from Reproductive Biology Associates,... view more... (2003-06-28)
Face facts: People don't stand out in crowds
Why is it difficult to pick out even a familiar face in a crowd? We all experience this, but the phenomenon has been poorly understood until now. view more (2008-01-22)
VCU Medical Center team implants total artificial heart
A cardiac surgery team at Virginia Commonwealth University's Pauley Heart Center has performed the first artificial heart implant on the East Coast. view more (2006-04-05)
BID TO DETECT BREATHING PROBLEMS IN THE NEWBORN
Professor Neil McIntosh and Dr Andrew Lyall of Child Life and Health, and Professor Alan Murray of Electronics & Electrical Engineering have been awarded a Chief Scientist Office (Scottish Office Department of Health) grant of £16,139 for work using an artificial neural network to alert hospital staff to air tube blockages, or air or gas... view more...

First direct electric link between neurons and light-sensitive nanoparticle films created
The world's first direct electrical link between nerve cells and photovoltaic nanoparticle films has been achieved by researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB) and the University of Michigan. view more (2007-02-28)
Red pandas reveal an unexpected (artificial) sweet tooth
Researchers from the Monell Center report that the red panda is the first non-primate mammal to display a liking for the artificial sweetener aspartame. This unexpected affinity for an artificial sweetener may reflect structural variation in the red panda's sweet taste receptor. view more (2009-04-16)
New research network: Artificial photosynthesis för future energy producion
Nature utilizes energy from the sun for its production. Some algae produce hydrogen from water with the help of solar energy. So why not imitate nature to extract renewable energy without harming the environment? The EU is now giving European research a boost by allocating EUR1.8 million to a new network to be led by Uppsala University. Plant... view more... (2005-02-21)
Carnegie Mellon researcher proposes development of artificial cells to fight disease
Carnegie Mellon University's Philip LeDuc predicts the use of artificially created cells could be a potential new therapeutic approach for treating diseases in an ever-changing world. view more (2007-02-08)
An unexpected link between coronavirus replication and protein secretion in infected cells
Coronavirus replication is critically linked to two factors within the early secretory pathway, according to new findings by a team of Dutch researchers that are published June 13th in the open-access journal PLoS Pathogens. view more (2008-06-13)
Genes may determine success of hip replacement surgery
The success of long term hip replacement surgery may lie in the genes, suggests research published ahead of print in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases. view more (2007-03-15)
Bone marrow cell transplants help nerve regeneration
A study carried out by researchers at the Kyoto University School of Medicine and published in the current issue of CELL TRANSPLANTATION (Vol.16 No. 8) has shown that when transplanted bone marrow cells (BMCs) containing adult stem cells are protected by a 15mm silicon tube and nourished with bio-engineered materials, they successfully help... view more...
