A turbo compressor for mobile surfers
Despite faster Internet connections, many users still resentfully associate the three letters www with "world wide wait". This is also due to the fact that files are constantly increasing in size. When using wireless terminals with low-resolution displays, such as palmtops or PDAs, it is not in fact necessary to transfer all elements of... view more... (2003-02-20)
University of Miami engineer designs stretchable electronics with a twist
Jizhou Song, a professor in the University of Miami College of Engineering and his collaborators Professor John Rogers, at the University of Illinois and Professor Yonggang Huang, at Northwestern University have developed a new design for stretchable electronics that can be wrapped around complex shapes, without a reduction in electronic function. view more (2009-01-22)

This week, more than eight hundred pathologists from around Europe and the world will take part in a first of its kind, large-scale virtual microscopy slide seminar on the web. view more (2007-09-06)
Engineering Nanoparticles for Maximum Strength
Because they are riddled with defects, bulk crystalline materials never achieve their ideal strength; nanocrystals, on the other hand, are so small there's no room for defects. view more (2008-10-21)
Lasers Generate Underwater Sound
Scientists at the Naval Research Laboratory are developing a new technology for use in underwater acoustics. The new technology uses flashes of laser light to remotely create underwater sound. view more (2009-09-08)
Microfoams the best treatment for varicose ulcers
According to a research, sclerosants in microfoam are the treatment of choice for ulcers of varicose origin. The study brings together the results of more than ten years of monitoring 116 patients affected by varicose ulcers being treated in Granada, Pamplona and Madrid. On comparing these with data from other novel therapies, it was shown that... view more... (2004-09-15)

Cool therapy reduces brain injury and death from oxygen loss in newborns
Infants born with oxygen loss who are given an innovative therapy that lowers their entire body temperature by four degrees within the first six hours of life, have a better chance of survival and lower incidence of brain injury. view more (2005-10-14)
Hammering sheet metal into shape
The tool at the pressing plant resonantly pounds the sheet metal, ejecting the newly formed vehicle hood moments later. Although this operation runs like clockwork on the production line, it caused the developers of the metal-forming equipment many a headache, since sheet metal springs back (unbends elastically) when the press is opened. The... view more... (2003-02-20)
New breast imaging technology targets hard-to-detect cancers
Breast-specific gamma imaging (BSGI) is effective in the detection of cancers not found on mammograms or by clinical exam, according to a study presented today at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). view more (2008-12-03)
SECCHI team obtains images of the solar wind at Earth
Using the Sun Earth Connection Coronal and Heliospheric Investigation (SECCHI) instruments on board NASA's Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) spacecraft, a consortium of scientists has seen, for the first time, large waves of solar material sweeping past Earth. view more (2007-12-10)
Face-to-face contact in a virtual environment
Although many sectors of the telecommunications industry are eagerly awaiting a ray of hope on the economic horizon, the prospects for video conferencing systems look good: Last year, sales on the European market increased by almost 15 percent, and the consultant Frost & Sullivan predicts that the growth rate will exceed 20 percent next year.... view more...

NIST develops test method for key micromechanical property
Engineers and researchers designing and building new microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) can benefit from a new test method developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to measure a key mechanical property of such systems: elasticity. view more (2008-01-10)
Green light for high data rates
As their quality has improved, services such as video streaming and Internet telephony have proliferated, but the high bandwidths can cause data congestion. At CeBIT a Competence Center is demonstrating how priority can be assigned dynamically to rapid connections. Data traffic on the Internet is like traffic on the road. Data files can be... view more... (2002-03-06)
Concentrating emissions
Researchers at MIT have shown the benefits of a new approach toward eliminating carbon-dioxide (CO2) emissions at coal-burning power plants. view more (2009-09-22)
Caesarean sections associated with risk of asthma
Babies born by Caesarean section have a 50 % increased risk of developing asthma compared to babies born naturally. Emergency Caesarean sections increase the risk even further. view more (2008-06-19)
Coming to a cinema near you - courtesy of ESA
We`ve got digital television. Next comes digital cinema. Thanks to ESA, cinema-goers in five European countries will be able to get an early taste of the new technology later this summer. As part of an ESA-funded project, ten cinemas in Austria, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK will be screening movies transmitted and played digitally rather than... view more... (2002-06-25)
Study shows PDE5 inhibitor more effective when used on demand in erectile dysfunction
European Urology, the official journal of the European Association of Urology will be featuring the article 'Effect of nightly versus on-demand vardenafil on recovery of erectile function in men following bilateral nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy' by F. Montorsi et al.in the October issue, showing for the first time that vardenafil, a PDE5... view more... (2008-08-27)
Continuous chest compression-CPR improved cardiac arrest survival in Arizona
The chance of surviving a cardiac arrest outside a hospital was found to be twice as high when bystanders performed continuous chest compressions without mouth-to-mouth breathing than when bystanders performed standard CPR. view more (2009-11-16)
Researchers at the University Jaume I put environmentally-friendly refrigerants to the test
Keeping food cool in the fridge or switching on the air conditioning at the office can be costly for the environment. The gases that have been used up till now for refrigeration (mainly the so-called HCFCs, such as R22) contain high proportions of chlorine, one of the elements responsible for the depletion of atmospheric ozone. Manufacturing new... view more... (2004-06-28)
