Travelers can avoid jet lag by resetting their body clocks
A simple, at-home treatment - a single light box and the over-the-counter drug melatonin - allows travelers to avoid jet lag by resetting their circadian body clock before crossing several time zones. view more (2005-11-02)
ESC Congress 2004: Converting cells into heart muscle
Bone marrow derived stem cells can give rise to heart muscle cells. This plasticity concept - the ability of bone marrow cell to transdifferentiate into heart muscle cell - is supported by experimental and clinical data. Another possibility is to replace the missing function by causing transdifferentiation of existing cells. Transdifferentiation... view more... (2004-08-30)
New approach to gene therapy may shrink brain tumors, prevent their spread
Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) researchers are investigating a new approach to gene therapy for brain tumors - delivering a cancer-fighting gene to normal brain tissue around the tumor to keep it from spreading. view more (2008-09-26)
Impact Of Agricultural Activity On Water Resources
A group of researchers at the Navarre Public University, together with technical experts from the Navarre Provincial Government, are evaluating the impact of agricultural activity on water resources, based on a Net of Experimental Catchment Areas that the Provincial Administration has installed in several areas of Navarre. To put this project into... view more... (2004-04-06)
Small excess risk of birth defects associated with living near landfill sites
Researchers in this week's BMJ report small excess risks of birth defects and low birth weight among people living near landfill sites in Great Britain. As 80% of the British population lives within 2km of known landfill sites, these results have important implications and further work is needed to help explain them, say the authors. Postcodes... view more... (2001-08-15)
CU researchers announce new technique for rapidly detecting illness-causing bacteria in food
Cornell University scientists have developed a rapid, less costly and sensitive new technique for detecting group A streptococcus, the bacteria that cause scarlet fever. Details will be announced today at the Institute of Food Technologists Annual Meeting and Food Expo in New Orleans. view more (2005-07-19)
New technique could find water on Earth-like planets orbiting distant suns
Since the early 1990s astronomers have discovered more than 300 planets orbiting stars other than our sun, nearly all of them gas giants like Jupiter. view more (2009-05-26)
Geologist urges seismic shift in process for selecting EarthScope study sites
EarthScope, an enormous, nationwide earth science project, is poised to revolutionize understanding of earthquakes, fault systems, volcanoes and the North American continent's structure. view more (2005-10-17)
NASA scientists identify smallest known black hole
Using a new technique, two NASA scientists have identified the lightest known black hole. With a mass only about 3.8 times greater than our Sun and a diameter of only 15 miles, the black hole lies very close to the minimum size predicted for black holes that originate from dying stars. view more (2008-04-02)
Safe Heating of Explosive Gases
The Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH (IMM) has developed the micro structured gas heater MSGH for combustible or explosive media. A clear separation of the space containing the medium from the heating elements allows safe heating and overheating of process gases, gas mixtures or gas/vapour mixtures. The MSGH has 50 cubic centimetres of... view more... (2004-06-23)
