Computer model improves ultrasound image
Doctors use diagnostic sonography or ultrasound to visualise organs and other internal structures of the human body. view more (2008-11-05)
Making proteins glow blue
In the beginning, there was protein. 19th-century scientists at least believed that this group of organic compounds were based on some kind of primeval matter. Therefore they named them "proteins" - derived from the Greek word "protos" (the first). It is meanwhile known that the structure of proteins is ultimately determined by... view more... (2003-09-18)
Grouse house at the click of a mouse
Ecologists at Aberdeen University have developed a new computer tool that could help save the capercaillie from extinction in Scotland. Speaking at the British Ecological Society’s Winter Meeting, to be held at the University of Warwick on 18–20 December 2001, Dr Keith Marshall will explain that the new computer model can be used to... view more...

Children and home computers: living up to parental aspirations?
Most parents regard supporting their children's education as a major motivator for buying a home computer. However most children are using them to play games. These are the findings of recent research, carried out by Lucinda Kerawalla and Dr Charles Crook, presented today, Thursday 28 June, at the International Conference on Communication, Problem... view more...

Engineers develop smallest device to control light, advance silicon technology
An electrical engineer at the University of Texas at Austin has made a laser light blink while passing through a miniaturized silicon chip, a major step toward developing commercially viable optical interconnects for high performance computers and other devices. view more (2006-01-19)
Researchers create a broadband light amplifier on a chip
Cornell researchers have created a broadband light amplifier on a silicon chip, a major breakthrough in the quest to create photonic microchips. In such microchips, beams of light traveling through microscopic waveguides will replace electric currents traveling through microscopic wires. view more (2006-07-07)
Measuring invisible reflections
The race is on for chip manufacturers. Many of them plan to open chip fabrication facilities employing extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation between up until 2010. This trend is being driven by advances in photolithography in which increasingly shorter wavelengths enable the production of even finer microelectronic structures. The result is higher... view more... (2003-07-25)
Man winks and the computer thinks
To some extent, computers can speak and hear. But seeing is another matter, for the instantaneous interpretation of film sequences requires the processing of huge volumes of data. Visitors to CeBIT can take part in a computer game as a virtual controller. For computer fans and cineastes, "Tron" counts as the forefather of... view more... (2004-02-26)
Tiny injector to speed development of new, safer, cheaper drugs
It's no bigger than a stamp packet but it has the potential to allow rapid development of a new generation of drugs and genetic engineering organisms, and to better control in-vitro fertilization. view more (2009-11-05)
Shift in simulation superiority
Science and engineering are advancing rapidly in part due to ever more powerful computer simulations, yet the most advanced supercomputers require programming skills that all too few U.S. researchers possess. view more (2009-05-04)
University footballers in training for World Cup
Staff in the University of Plymouth`s School of Computing and Department of Communication & Electronic Engineering (DCEE) are busy preparing to represent England in the FIRA 2002 (International Federation of Robot Soccer Associations) Robot Football World Cup, taking place in Korea next week. The University team, widely acknowledged as the... view more... (2002-05-17)
Low-cost strategy developed for curbing computer worms
Thanks to an ingenious new strategy devised by researchers at University of California, Davis and Intel Corporation, computer network administrators might soon be able to mount effective, low-cost defenses against self-propagating infectious programs known as worms. view more (2009-01-14)
Laser sets records in power and energy efficiency
The rise in global terrorism in recent years has brought significant attention to the needs for more advanced sensors and defense technologies to protect civilians and soldiers. view more (2007-07-24)
New night vision system reduces car accidents
About 42% of fatal car accidents happen at night, according to the European Commission for the Automobile Industry. This figure is extremely worrying bearing in mind that there is about 60% less traffic during at night time. view more (2007-09-27)
Gene chip data improved therapy in some patients with incurable cancer
Like many oncologists, Eric P. Lester, M.D., was faced with a dilemma: seven patients with advanced, incurable cancer, an arsenal of drugs that may or may not help them, and not enough solid proof about treatment efficacy to guide him. view more (2007-09-20)
IT and The Law - What`S The Score?
A pioneering centre dedicated to tackling the new legal challenges associated with the fast-moving world of information technology will open at the University of Bristol this summer [June 1, 2002]. This is a cross-disciplinary venture building on existing strengths in the Faculties of Law and Engineering and Computer Sciences. The new Centre will... view more... (2002-03-07)
Compact, wavelength-on-demand Quantum Cascade Laser chip offers ultra-sensitive chemical sensing
Engineers from Harvard University have demonstrated a highly versatile, compact and portable Quantum Cascade Laser sensor for the fast detection of a large number of chemicals, ranging from infinitesimal traces of gases to liquids, by broad tuning of the emission wavelength. view more (2007-12-04)
Brain Implant Being Studied at Jefferson Could Predict and Stop Epilepsy Seizures Before They Even Begin
An implanted stimulator being studied at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital may be able to predict and prevent seizures before they start in people with uncontrolled epilepsy. view more (2007-07-27)
Researchers create first nanofluidic transistor, the basis of future chemical processors
University of California, Berkeley, researchers have invented a variation on the standard electronic transistor, creating the first "nanofluidic" transistor that allows them to control the movement of ions through sub-microscopic, water-filled channels. view more (2005-06-30)
'Artificial Golgi' may provide new insight into key cell structure
Scientists in New York and North Carolina are reporting assembly of the first functioning prototype of an artificial Golgi organelle. view more (2009-07-29)
