Sussex scientist becomes Fellow of the Royal Society
A University of Sussex chemistry professor has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS), the premier honour for British and Commonwealth scientists. The Royal Society – the UK’s national academy for science – announced yesterday that Professor Tony Stace, from Lewes, is one of 42 new Fellows. view more (2002-05-14)
Recycling of electronic circuit boards
GAIKER, research center from the Basque Country is a participant in a project at a multinational level which is financed by the European Union Competitive and Sustainable Growth Project. The project is to develop innovative technology which will have two aspects or stages: firstly the separation and recovery of components capable of being reused... view more... (2003-01-21)
Researchers Devise Process to Make Designer Plastics for Hairspray, Anti-Obesity Drugs and Inkjet Printer Ink
Research chemists at the University of Warwick have devised and patented a new process called Living and Controlled Radical Polymerisation which can cheaply and easily grow designer polymers (plastics). They have already used the process to produce a wide range of designer polymer designs that are now being tested by major companies for use in... view more... (2002-02-27)
Journal of Alzheimer's Disease is devoted to metal ions and neurodegenerative diseases
The recent issue of the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease (Volume 8, Issue 2) published by IOS Press is devoted to "Metal Ions and Neurodegenerative Diseases" and presents a collection of important papers dedicated to uncovering the role of various metals in human neurophysiology and neurodegenerative disorders. view more (2006-01-13)
Risk of Parkinson's disease increases with pesticide exposure and head trauma

INFM research to improve the service of cell phone systems
New superconductor devices for cell phone systems improve the efficiency of receiving cellular phone calls. This is the important result derived from the research project “Superconductor filters for telecommunication”, carried out at the INFM, the National Institute for Physics of Matter, Italy. The project is co-ordinated by Professor... view more... (2001-09-13)
The Mathematics of Cloaking
The theorists who first created the mathematics that describe the behavior of the recently announced "invisibility cloak" have revealed a new analysis that may extend the current cloak's powers, enabling it to hide even actively radiating objects like a flashlight or cell phone. view more (2006-12-27)
The IUD is the most popular long-acting contraceptive amongst Europeans
A European study has defined the profile for the usage of long-acting contraceptive methods. The work, presented with the National Congress of Gynaecology award, shows, amongst other things, that 10% of women use these methods, the majority over 30 years old. view more (2009-10-29)

Nanowire generates power by harvesting energy from the environment
As the sizes of sensor networks and mobile devices shrink toward the microscale, and even nanoscale, there is a growing need for suitable power sources. Because even the tiniest battery is too big to be used in nanoscale devices, scientists are exploring nanosize systems that can salvage energy from the environment. view more (2007-09-28)
One nano-step closer to weighing a single atom
By studying gold nanoparticles with highly uniform sizes and shapes, scientists now understand how they lose energy, a key step towards producing nanoscale detectors for weighing any single atom. view more (2009-07-28)
Katrina floodwaters not as toxic to humans as previously thought, study says

Novel Chemistry for Ethylene and Tin
New work by chemists at UC Davis shows that ethylene, a gas that is important both as a hormone that controls fruit ripening and as a raw material in industrial chemistry, can bind reversibly to tin atoms. view more (2009-09-30)
How to shrink the mobile phones even more?
Even a conventional mobile phone user demands more functions and better performance of his mobile phone in the smallest possible space. The mobile phone should also be easy to use, reliable and inexpensive. In order to meet these demands, more data and functions than before must be packed into the circuit boards of mobile phones in the future. The... view more... (2002-04-25)
Making hospitals safer from infection
"One small water line feeding one hospital faucet alone can house millions of bacteria," said international Legionella expert Janet Stout, Ph.D., urging public health and infection control officers to be proactive against Legionella and other waterborne microbes that contribute to soaring hospital infection rates. view more (2007-12-21)
