New gene regulation mechanism discovered
Researchers at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory have discovered a new kind of messenger RNA molecule that is converted from non-protein coding status to protein coding status in response to cellular stress such as viral infection. view more (2005-10-21)
Influenza spreads readily in winter conditions
Low temperatures and relative humidities have been linked to the rapid spread of influenza in a new study by researchers, led by Dr. Peter Palese, from the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. The study, published in PLoS Pathogens, supports the theory of the seasonal flu. view more (2007-10-19)
Genes hold secret of survival of Antarctic 'antifreeze fish'
A genetic study of a fish that lives in the icy waters off Antarctica sheds light on the adaptations that enable it to survive in one of the harshest environments on the planet. view more (2008-10-17)
Immune system kick-started in moist nasal lining in sinusitis, asthma and colds
Scientists at Johns Hopkins have outlined a new path for potential therapies to combat inflammation associated with sinusitis and asthma based on a new understanding of the body's earliest immune response in the nose and sinus cavities. view more (2008-04-30)
Oldest stars may shed light on dark matter, researchers report in Science
The universe's earliest stars may hold clues to the nature of dark matter, the mysterious stuff that makes up most of the universe's matter but doesn't interact with light, cosmologists report. view more (2007-09-14)
Topical treatment for cold sores achieves efficacy of oral drugs; represents paradigm shift
Scientists at NanoBio Corporation have demonstrated for the first time in humans that a novel topical treatment for cold sores (herpes labialis), NB-001, speeds healing of lesions as effectively as the leading oral systemic drugs but without safety or toxicity concerns. view more (2008-10-29)
Music calms the fevered brow
Music is not just the food of love - it may also be a pain killer and lessen anxiety. New research by psychologists has found that that people listening to music may feel less pain than those who are not and that music can relieve the symptoms of anxiety for people recovering from surgery. view more (2005-03-21)
New clues for treatment of liver cancer
By generating tumors in laboratory mice that mimic human liver cancer and by comparing the DNA of mouse and human tumors, researchers at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory have identified two genes that are likely to play a role in the third leading cause of human cancer deaths. view more (2006-06-29)
Cantabrian cornice has experienced seven cooling and warming phases over past 41,000 years
In 1996, an international team of scientists led by the University of Zaragoza (UNIZAR) started to carry out a paleontological survey in the cave of El Mirón. view more (2009-06-03)
Keeping cool in a war zone: Device promises relief for desert soldiers
One of the deadliest obstacles soldiers in desert war zones have to face is heat. The gear soldiers wear and carry can contribute 10 additional degrees to the outside temperature, a dangerously significant increase on a 95-degree day, for instance. view more (2006-05-11)
Deep thinking: Scientists sequence a cold-loving marine microbe
At home in the deep, dark Arctic Ocean, the marine bacterium Colwellia psychrerythraea 34H keeps very cool-typically below 5° degrees Celsius. How does the bacterium function in this frigid environment? To find out, scientists at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR) and collaborators have sequenced and analyzed C. psychrerythraea's... view more... (2005-07-26)
Eighty below and loving it: Montana State University scientists to get new cold lab
Half-million-year-old Antarctic ice, avalanche triggers, frost heaves in roads and the possibility of life in Martian ice caps are just a few of the research projects expected to find a home in a new cluster of labs planned for Montana State University. view more (2006-06-28)
Fast not food for a fussy fish
Most fish eat heartily during the summer in preparation for the cold and hungry winter months. But the burbot or Lota lota – a freshwater cousin of cod - does things differently, going on a summer diet when fish food is at its peak. view more (2002-04-04)
More efficient and ecological system for the production of electricity, cold and heat
IK4 is taking part in a European project the aim of which is to design a single installation that will, at the same time, produce electricity, cold and heat for domestic use, while affording a notable reduction in environmental impact. view more (2006-07-31)
Asthma epidemics linked to airflow patterns in thunderstorms
It's the airflow patterns in thunderstorms, rather than the electrical activity, thunder, or rain, which trigger asthma epidemics, concludes research in Thorax. The hospital admission rates for asthma and airflow patterns during thunderstorms up to 80 km away were studied for six towns in south eastern Australia between 1995 and 1998. Hourly... view more...

Storm Killers: LSU's Earth Scan Lab Tracks Cold Water Upwellings in Gulf
Complex interactions between the ocean and overlying atmosphere cause hurricanes to form, and also have a tremendous amount of influence on the path, intensity and duration of a hurricane or tropical weather event. view more (2009-09-29)
Cold sore virus might play role in Alzheimer's disease
A gene known to be a major risk factor for Alzheimer's disease puts out the welcome mat for the virus that causes cold sores, allowing the virus to be more active in the brain compared to other forms of the gene. view more (2007-01-04)
Rocket technology retards combustibility
Every fire is literally a red-hot situation. While wood is a popular building material, it also has the disadvantage of being an excellent fuel. Intumescent coatings (from the Latin intumescere, to swell up) can help to delay the combustion of wood. Above a specific temperature, these protective coatings form a soft, carbonaceous foam that shields... view more... (2003-04-24)
Cold Spring Harbor Scientists Devise Novel, Low-Cost Method of Sifting Genome's High-Value Regions
Scientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) have developed a new means of extracting and interpreting data from the human genome that is more powerful and more economical than methods currently employed. view more (2007-11-07)
Life in the extreme
Cold seeps are deep-sea environments, usually a few square meters in size, where fluid is released through slow diffusion from the sea floor. Mud volcanoes which are active areas of fluid seepage, are other extreme environments discovered in the 1990s. These harsh conditions give rise to some of the most extreme and scientifically challenging... view more... (2006-11-09)
