Skin cancer diagnosis technique could also help prevent blindness
A new technique to aid early detection of skin cancer could also help fight serious eye diseases such as those caused by diabetes. The technique has been developed at the University of Birmingham with funding from the Swindon-based Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council. It involves using an innovative form of image analysis to tell... view more... (2002-11-26)
Secrets of insect flight revealed
Researchers are one step closer to creating a micro-aircraft that flies with the manoeuvrability and energy efficiency of an insect after decoding the aerodynamic secrets of insect flight. view more (2009-09-18)
Gypsy Moth Management Made More Efficient, Cost-Effective
A computer model that provides land managers with a more efficient and cost-effective approach for controlling gypsy moths and other invasive pests has been created by biologists at Penn State University and the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. Gypsy moths, which were introduced to North America in the late 1860s, are responsible for... view more... (2008-04-03)
The PRIMA project aims to ease information retrieval: The computer serves its user better by tracking
What if your computer knew ahead of time what topic you want more information about? The Proactive Information Retrieval by Adaptive Models of Users (PRIMA) project develops methods by which the computer tracks the user's eye gaze and other activities, and learns to use those to identify what the user is interested in. view more (2005-04-14)
The impact of its environment on a quantum computer
Scientists have discovered how the performance of a quantum computer can be affected by its surrounding environment. The study, published in the latest issue of the journal Science, will help engineers to better understand how to integrate quantum components into a standard office computer - moving us one step closer to a future of quantum... view more...

Idle Computers Offer Hope to Solve Cancer's Mysteries Through Grid Computing Project
A biomedical engineering professor at The University of Texas at Austin is using a concept called "grid computing" to allow the average person to donate idle computer time in a global effort to fight cancer. view more (2008-06-24)
Computers as safe as medical experts for prescribing blood thinning drugs
The largest ever study into the administration of blood thinning drugs, principally Warfarin, has concluded that dosages calculated by computer are at least as safe and reliable as those provided by expert medical professionals. view more (2008-06-19)
New unidirectional molecular rotor may lead to tiny sensors, pumps, switches
A University of Colorado at Boulder team has developed the first computer-generated model of a tiny, waterwheel-like molecular rotor that has been harnessed to rotate in one direction at different speeds in response to changes in the strength of an electrical field applied from the outside. view more (2005-10-07)
Sleaford groups consulted on water use futures
Representatives of civic groups and local council members have been invited to a meeting on Monday 1st November to discuss how they see land and water uses in the Slea catchment changing in the future. The meeting is being organised by Sleaford Development Group at the Solo Club, Seaford and will brief those attending about a study investigating... view more... (2004-10-29)

U of M researchers develop new online tool in fight against spread of HIV
A new Web-based software program is the latest tool University of Minnesota researchers are using to help fight the spread of HIV. A multidisciplinary team of researchers led by Joseph Konstan, a professor in computer science and engineering, and B. R. Simon Rosser, a professor in the School of Public Health, are embarking on a clinical trial this... view more... (2007-12-19)
World`s Largest Model of DNA at the Tomorrow`s World Roadshow
The largest model of DNA in the world will be constructed at the Tomorrow`s World Roadshow at Earls Court London on 10 -13 of July. The current Guinness World Record'¤ breaking model will grow even further and is expected to break its own record. The finished model is expected to contain 300 base pairs and stand about 40 feet high. On the day 50... view more... (2002-07-05)
NASA Study Finds Clock Ticking Slower On Ozone Hole Recovery
The Antarctic ozone hole's recovery is running late. According to a new NASA study, the full return of the protective ozone over the South Pole will take nearly 20 years longer than scientists previously expected. view more (2006-06-30)
Computer-based screening may encourage discussions about domestic violence
Computer screening may increase the odds that a woman at risk for domestic violence will talk to a health care professional in the emergency department about the topic but does not guarantee that domestic violence would be addressed. view more (2006-05-23)
UAB Computer Forensics Links Fake Online Postcards to Most Prevalent U.S. Computer Virus
Fake Internet postcards circulating through e-mail inboxes worldwide are carrying links to the virus known as Zeus Bot, said Gary Warner, director of computer forensics at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). Zeus Bot has been named America's most pervasive computer Botnet virus by Network World magazine, reportedly infecting 3.6 million... view more... (2009-07-27)
Carbon nanotubes outperform copper nanowires as interconnects
Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have created a road map that brings academia and the semiconductor industry one step closer to realizing carbon nanotube interconnects, and alleviating the current bottleneck of information flow that is limiting the potential of computer chips in everything from personal computers to portable music... view more...

The colour of your hair may leave you open to stereotypes and prejudice
Hair colour has been associated with stereotypes of females in western society and it appears that the stereotype of 'dumb blonde' is still alive and well. There is also some evidence that men rather than women have constructed the dumb blonde stereotype. view more (1999-03-26)
Field tests unite weather and climate models
Researchers from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) and several other government and academic institutions have created four new supercomputer simulations that for the first time combine their mathematical computer models of the atmosphere, ocean, land surface and sea ice. view more (2005-07-20)
