At a microscopic level, water molecules behave rather like the needle of a compass. Just as the needle moves when surrounded by a magnetic field (such as that of the Earth), water molecules move slightly in one direction when there is an electric field. Or at least that is what physicists thought till now. Research at the Universitat... view more... (2004-05-13)

The clue of genomic instability in breast cancer
New research has shown, using human tissue biopsies - a hypothesis that until now could only be argued indirectly using cell cultures - that the significant increase in genomic "disorder" that is associated with breast cancer occurs in the transition between the typical hyperplasia and the in situ carcinoma, coinciding with a reduction to a... view more...
