Novel technique changes lymph node biopsy, reduces radiation exposure in breast cancer patients
Information obtained from a new application of photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is worth its weight in gold to breast cancer patients. view more (2009-01-14)
Materials World - December 1999 Issue
3D Sound Systems Using Groundbreaking Piezoelectric Springs Digital speakers that can project three dimensional sound across a room are being developed using springs built from piezoelectric ceramics. Applying an electrical current to the material forces the spring to expand causing a vibration that produces a coherent sound image away from the... view more... (1999-11-30)
Machines can't replicate human image recognition, yet
While computers can replicate many aspects of human behavior, they do not possess our ability to recognize distorted images, according to a team of Penn State researchers. view more (2009-09-10)
MU Scientist Discovers 'Firework' Display in Helix Nebula
A star does not die without getting noticed and may even leave the universe with "fireworks." At the end of its life cycle, a star begins to collapse in the middle and throws new material into space. view more (2009-07-21)
The image of Nobel laureates differ considerably in media
Canonized celebrities or respected scientists? The image of Nobel laureates can differ considerably in the media. This is shown in an ongoing study by the Italian media researcher Massimiano Bucchi from the University of Trento. view more (2003-10-09)
Rim of Crater Huygens on Mars
These images, taken by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board ESA's Mars Express spacecraft, show the eastern rim of the Martian impact crater Huygens. view more (2004-10-19)
Supernova remnants dance in the LMC
The Gemini South Multi-Object Spectograph (GMOS) recently captured a dramatic image of a vast cloud complex named DEM L316 located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. view more (2008-01-11)
Can you see me now? Flexible photodetectors could help sharpen photos
Distorted cell-phone photos and big, clunky telephoto lenses could be things of the past. University of Wisconsin-Madison Electrical and Computer Engineering Associate Professor Zhenqiang (Jack) Ma and colleagues have developed a flexible light-sensitive material that could revolutionize photography and other imaging technologies. view more (2009-01-14)
Complex meteorology at Venus
In its relentless probing of Venus's atmosphere, ESA's Venus Express keeps revealing new details of the Venusian cloud system. Meteorology at Venus is a complex matter, scientists say. view more (2006-10-16)
RIT Study Benchmarks Quality of Digital Archiving in American Museums
Scientists from Rochester Institute of Technology have discovered a wide range of quality in the digital images being produced by American museums, libraries, and other cultural-heritage institutions and unfamiliarity with scientific protocol in the use of digital photography and color management. view more (2005-08-22)
From molecules to the Milky Way: dealing with the data deluge
Most people have a few gigabytes of files on their PC. In the next decade, astronomers expect to be processing 10 million gigabytes of data every hour from the Square Kilometre Array telescope. view more (2007-11-08)
New imaging technique reveals the atomic structure of nanocrystals
A new imaging technique developed by researchers at the University of Illinois overcomes the limit of diffraction and can reveal the atomic structure of a single nanocrystal with a resolution of less than one angstrom (less than one hundred-millionth of a centimeter). view more (2009-02-19)
New microchip technology for medical imaging biomarkers of disease
A collaboration between scientists at UCLA, Caltech, Stanford, Siemens and Fluidigm have developed a new technology using integrated microfluidics chips for simplifying, lowering the cost and diversifying the types of molecules used to image the biology of disease with the medical imaging technology, Positron Emission Tomography (PET). view more (2005-12-16)
Cornell researchers test carbon fiber to make tiny, cheap video displays
Engineers who develop microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) like to make their tiny machines out of silicon because it is cheap, plentiful and can be worked on with the tools already developed for making microelectronic circuits. There is just one problem: Silicon breaks too easily. view more (2006-08-23)
Film-maker opens the doors of perception
Cutting-edge film-maker and artist, Nichola Bruce, has received a NESTA (National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts) fellowship of up to £75,000 to research and create, through digital media, a sketchbook of works looking at the themes of memory and how we see. Hastings-based Nichola is a skilled film/programme maker who has... view more... (2002-07-30)
Face-to-face contact in a virtual environment
Although many sectors of the telecommunications industry are eagerly awaiting a ray of hope on the economic horizon, the prospects for video conferencing systems look good: Last year, sales on the European market increased by almost 15 percent, and the consultant Frost & Sullivan predicts that the growth rate will exceed 20 percent next year.... view more...

Chemistry & Industry - 1 October Issue
NEWS Unexplained miscarriages could be linked to insulin resistance (page 5) Insulin resistance could explain why some women suffer from repeated miscarriage. The association of insulin resistance with repeated pregnancy loss in diabetics and women with polycystic ovary syndrome are well known, but this is the first time its effect on pregnancy... view more...

Left-handed molecules make better drugs – bacteria are more efficient drug factories
Using bacteria as factories to produce drugs could be safer, cheaper and more efficient than traditional chemical manufacturing methods, experts heard today (Wednesday 12 September 2001) during the bi-annual meeting of the Society for General Microbiology at the University of East Anglia. “Chiral drugs are important in the treatment of many... view more...
