The structure of resistance
A team of scientists from the University Paris Descartes has solved the structure of two proteins that allow bacteria to gain resistance to multiple types of antibiotics, according to a report in EMBO reports this month.   view more (2008-02-25)

The dance of crystal structures
The word "crystal" is a technical term; iron and steel, for example, are crystals whereas glass is not. In fact, "crystal" means materials of a crystalline structure.   view more (2004-11-10)

New model predicts damage to cheese
Researchers at a Dutch university have developed a model that predicts how cheese will change when a force is applied to it. This makes it possible to predict how cheese will be damaged during the packaging or transportation processes. Anna Rzepiela from Wageningen University simulated the... view more (2003-04-11)

Electronic tongue as oil tester
In the early days of mass motoring, in the 1950s, a car became due for inspection and oil change roughly every 3,000 kilometers. Since then, improvements to car engines and oils have lengthened this interval to around 30,000 kilometers, and it is likely to increase still further: to three times... view more (2003-05-22)

Data security: A problem in search of a mathematical theory
The need for security in electronic communications is crucial in today's world. The foundation for providing this security rests on mathematics.   view more (2006-02-08)

UCSD study reveals the regulatory mechanism of key enzyme
Research conducted at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine has shed new light on the structure and function of one of the key proteins in all mammalian cells, protein kinase A (PKA), an enzyme which plays an essential role in memory formation, communication between... view more (2007-09-21)

Review Finds Potential Flaws in Voting Systems
Flaws that leave electronic voting machines vulnerable to security attacks were discovered by University of California researchers as part of an unprecedented "Top-to-Bottom Review" of the systems commissioned by California Secretary of State Debra Bowen.   view more (2007-07-31)

Yale scientists visualize the machinery of mRNA splicing
Recent research at Yale provided a glimpse of the ancient mechanism that helped diversify our genomes; it illuminated a relationship between gene processing in humans and the most primitive organisms by creating the first crystal structure of a crucial self-splicing region of RNA.   view more (2008-04-07)

DNA constraints control structure of attached macromolecules
A new method for manipulating macromolecules has been developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The technique uses double-stranded DNA to direct the behavior of other molecules.   view more (2005-06-29)

Kaiser Permanente study shows electronic medical records and outreach improve osteoporosis care
Electronic medical records and outreach programs of e-mail messages, letters and phone calls to patients and their primary care providers after a bone fracture can dramatically improve the diagnosis and management of the patients' osteoporosis.   view more (2007-10-23)

Indelible watermarks
As the Internet extends its reach and grows in complexity, there is a greater need for digital watermarks in image, audio and video data. Using a similar technique to banknote watermarking, invisible or inaudible information is inserted into digital content to thwart unauthorized use and ensure... view more (2001-08-21)
