Researchers Find That Cattle Tuberculosis Remains in Fields For Up to 4 Months
Researchers from the University of Warwick's Department of Biological Sciences have found evidence that bovine tuberculosis remains in fields for up to 4 months. This means that long after an outbreak of bovine TB on a farm healthy cattle may still be exposed to the disease from pasture that had been used by infected cows any time in the previous... view more...

Snomipede races to solve the mysteries of life
A multi-disciplinary team of scientists from the Universities of Sheffield, Nottingham, Manchester and Glasgow has been awarded a £3m research grant to develop a new nanotechnology tool which they have called the 'Snomipede'. The team, led by Professor Graham Leggett at the University of Sheffield, hopes that once developed, the Snomipede... view more... (2005-02-15)
Zeroing in on Alzheimer's
Hereditary Alzheimer's disease has been shown to be the result of mutations in certain specific genes. Other cases of Alzheimer's are also assumed to be traceable to the influence of a number of still unidentified genes. It is probable that these genes are located in a large area on chromosome 10q, which contains more than 100 genes. Working with... view more... (2003-09-25)
Umbilical cord gene expression signals premature babies' lung disease risk
Diagnosing a risk of fatal lung disorders may be possible by analysing the umbilical cords of premature babies, according to research published in the online open access journal Genome Biology. view more (2007-10-04)
Common Cold No More Frequent In People With Asthma - But Symptoms Are More Severe (p 831)
People with asthma are not at an increased risk of having a common cold, but are more likely to develop more severe respiratory symptoms if infected with the cold virus, conclude authors of a UK study in this week's issue of THE LANCET. Rhinoviruses are the most frequent cause of the common cold. It has long been thought that people with asthma... view more... (2002-03-06)

The role of the Institute for Animal Health in the current outbreak of Foot-and-Mouth Disease in the UK
The Institute for Animal Health (IAH) is an international centre for research into the major infectious diseases of farm animals. It is sponsored and funded by the Biotechnology & Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and undertakes research in support of the policies of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAFF) to control... view more...

High degree of resistance to antibiotics in Arctic birds
In the latest issue of the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases, Swedish researchers report that birds captured in the hyperboreal tundra, in connection with the tundra expedition "Beringia 2005," were carriers of antibiotics-resistant bacteria. view more (2008-01-14)
Are some men predisposed to pedophilia?
Height may point to a biological basis for pedophilia, according to new research released by the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH). The study found that pedophilic males were shorter on average than males without a sexual attraction to children. view more (2007-10-23)
Study validates means to measure possible leukemia marker
A study led by cancer researchers at The Ohio State University has validated a method for reliably measuring variations in certain proteins that may make good biomarkers in chronic leukemia patients. view more (2009-05-01)
Molecular detectors may refine cancer treatment
University of Florida researchers have successfully used molecular probes to detect subtle differences in leukemia cells from patient samples, an achievement that could lead to more effective ways to diagnose and treat cancer. view more (2007-07-20)
MSU research: Genes may influence popularity
A groundbreaking study of popularity by a Michigan State University scientist has found that genes elicit not only specific behaviors but also the social consequences of those behaviors. view more (2008-12-22)

Core needle biopsy gives an accurate picture of gene expression in whole tumor
The gene expression profile detected in the core needle biopsy of a breast tumour is representative of gene expression in the whole tumour. view more (2006-08-21)
Quatratran - Helping to make The World a safer place
Since the development of superconducting electronic devices there has been a need to develop a three terminal transistor like device sensitive enough to measure small voltage and current signals typical of those associated with single electron and photon events. A group of researchers in the Department of Particle & Nuclear Physics at Oxford... view more... (2004-02-19)
