Confusion, not cheating, major factor in plagiarism among some students
Confusion about what constitutes plagiarism - not malicious intent - is the leading cause of plagiarism at the graduate school level, according to an expert presenting here today on the increasingly worrisome problem at the 237th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS). view more (2009-03-23)
Iowa State chemists track how drug changes, blocks flu virus
An anti-virus drug attacks influenza A by changing the motion and structure of a proton channel necessary for the virus to infect healthy cells, according to a recently published research paper by two Iowa State University chemists. view more (2008-02-04)
Wired DNA
The hereditary DNA molecule was developed by nature to store the genetic information of its creatures. However in recent years it has been shown that this giant molecule could also have other qualities - it may also conduct electrical current. Three research groups that are looking into this subject have now published their results in Angewandte... view more... (1999-03-23)
Washing Clothes
The flow of soap solutions through fibres is of great importance for the final result of the washing process. This is one of the conclusions from the research project of Annemoon Timmerman. She will defend her thesis on Monday 22 April at TU Delft. With this conclusion she supports a theory that was disbelieved for years by experts in the field.... view more... (2002-04-22)
NASA launches airborne study of arctic atmosphere, air pollution
This month, NASA begins the most extensive field campaign ever to investigate the chemistry of the Arctic's lower atmosphere. The mission is poised to help scientists identify how air pollution contributes to climate changes in the Arctic. view more (2008-04-02)
Novel newborn screening can open door to treating rare but devastating diseases
