Color test enhances tomato analyzer software
When it comes to fresh vegetables and fruits, color is one of the best indicators of quality. Along with texture, size, and flavor, color plays an important role in the business of horticultural crop production and marketing. view more (2009-02-27)
New Study Indicates Radiologists Need Standards to Ensure Optimal Visual Accuracy
Radiologists, like professional pilots for example, depend on good vision as part of their occupation. However, radiologists unlike pilots are not required to undergo regular vision testing. view more (2009-06-10)
The more common the digit, the more radiant the color in grapheme color synaesthesia
A psychological phenomenon known as "grapheme-color synaesthesia" describes individuals who experience vivid colors whenever they see, hear, or think of ordinary letters and digits. view more (2007-09-19)
Atomic-resolution views suggest function of enzyme that regulates light-detecting signals in eye
An atomic-resolution view of an enzyme found only in the eye has given researchers at the University of Washington (UW) clues about how this enzyme, essential to vision, is activated. view more (2008-10-08)
Ultrasound first, not CT, for diagnosing suspected acute appendicitis
Color Doppler ultrasound, not CT, should be the first imaging examination for adult patients with suspected acute appendicitis, a new study emphasizes. view more (2008-05-08)
Research on the color red shows definite impact on achievement
The color red can affect how people function: Red means danger and commands us to stop in traffic. Researchers at the University of Rochester have now found that red also can keep us from performing our best on tests. view more (2007-03-01)
Small evolutionary shifts make big impacts -- like developing night vision, researchers find
In the developing fetus, cell growth follows a very specific schedule. In the eye's retina, for example, cones -- which help distinguish color during the day -- develop before the more light-sensitive rods -- which are needed for night vision. view more (2009-05-21)

Colorful bacteria more dangerous
A new study in the July 18 issue of The Journal of Experimental Medicine shows that gold-colored bacteria are more harmful than their unpigmented relatives. A group of scientists led by Victor Nizet (UCSD, San Diego, CA) have discovered that the molecules that give certain bugs their color also help them resist attack by immune cells called... view more...

UF researchers awaken vision cells in blind mice
University of Florida researchers used gene therapy to restore sight in mice with a form of hereditary blindness, a finding that has bearing on many of the most common blinding diseases. view more (2007-05-22)
One gene provides fruit fly both antenna and color vision
A team of researchers that includes biologists from Washington University in St. Louis has discovered that a gene involved in the development and function of the fruit fly antenna also gives the organism its color vision. view more (2006-04-05)
Study of flower color shows evolution in action
Scientists at UC Santa Barbara have zeroed in on the genes responsible for changing flower color, an area of research that began with Gregor Mendel's studies of the garden pea in the 1850's. view more (2009-06-30)
NASA'S Cassini spacecraft captures Saturnian moon ballet
The cold, icy orbs of the Saturn system come to life in a slew of new movie clips showing the ringed planet's moons in motion. view more (2006-06-22)
Human vision inadequate for research on bird vision
The most attractive male birds attract more females and as a result are most successful in terms of reproduction. This is the starting point of many studies looking for factors that influence sexual selection in birds. view more (2008-05-13)
New Research Shows Consistency in Synaesthetic Experiences
A quirky psychological phenomenon known as "grapheme-color synaesthesia" describes individuals who experience vivid colors whenever they see, hear, or think of ordinary letters and digits. view more (2008-04-30)
Can we 'learn to see?': Study shows perception of invisible stimuli improves with training
Although we assume we can see everything in our field of vision, the brain actually picks and chooses the stimuli that come into our consciousness. view more (2009-10-22)
Study Indicates How We Maintain Visual Details In Short Term Memory
Working memory (also known as short term memory) is our ability to keep a small amount of information active in our mind. view more (2009-02-23)
Looking forward to better travel
These were the findings of a study published today, Monday 15 November, in the British Journal of Psychology, by Mark Turner of Portsmouth University, and Professor Michael Griffin of Southampton University's Institute of Sound and Vibration Research. view more (1999-11-15)
