Toward better solar cells: Chemists gain control of light-harvesting paths
University of Florida chemists have pioneered a method to tease out promising molecular structures for capturing energy, a step that could speed the development of more efficient, cheaper solar cells. view more (2009-10-09)
Philips patents TU Eindhoven's energy return system
An increasing number of private individuals supply their excess energy, from external energy sources (windmills and solar cells), to the electricity grid and only take energy from the grid when necessary. view more (2008-01-25)
Precise measurement of phenomenon advances solar cell understanding
Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have shed light on a basic process that could improve future solar cells. view more (2008-11-19)
Rapid movements of living biomolecules visualised
Dutch researcher Chris Molenaar has made the rapid movements of proteins, DNA and RNA molecules visible in living cells. With this technique researchers can study the dynamics of biomolecules in their natural environment. Molenaar developed a method which makes it possible to follow the movements of RNA molecules in living cells. The researcher... view more... (2003-06-24)
Cool! Nanoparticle research points to energy savings
Adding just the right dash of nanoparticles to standard mixes of lubricants and refrigerants could yield the equivalent of an energy-saving chill pill for factories, hospitals, ships, and others with large cooling systems, suggest the latest results from National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) research that is pursuing promising... view more...

Towards the mechanism of cell respiration
Researchers at the Institute of Biotechnology of the University of Helsinki have for the first time identified an internal electron transfer reaction that initiates the proton pump mechanism of the respiratory enzyme. view more (2006-04-06)
A breakthrough in heat transfer technology
A revolutionary breakthrough in heat transfer technology that could improve process productivity and reduce energy consumption and waste, is being developed by Ashe Morris Ltd thanks to a £100,000 investment from NESTA (the National Endowment for Science, Technology & the Arts), the largest source of early stage funding in the UK. view more (2003-07-21)
Protein enables discovery of quantum effect in photosynthesis
When it comes to studying energy transfer in photosynthesis, it's good to think "outside the bun." view more (2007-05-03)
Nanoscience Study Shows That Quantum Dots "Talk"
Scientists who hope to use quantum dots as the building blocks for the next generation of computers have found a way to make these artificial atoms communicate. view more (2006-02-22)
Radicals Shake Up Molecules in a Tug o' War
Until now, it was commonly thought that colliding molecules get the shakes as the result of energy transfer solely from the smashing of the molecules, but some new research adds a second means by which colliding molecules become vibrationally excited--it is being called the "Tug o' War Mechanism." view more (2008-07-07)
Mouse stem cell line advance suggests potential for IVF-incompetent eggs
Researchers have found that mouse oocytes that fail to become fertilized during in vitro fertilization are nevertheless often capable of succeeding as "cytoplasmic donors" during a subsequent cloning step using so-called nuclear transfer. view more (2007-02-20)
Orientation of antenna protein in photosynthetic bacteria described
Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have figured out the orientation of a protein in the antenna complex to its neighboring membrane in a photosynthetic bacterium, a key find in the process of energy transfer in photosynthesis. view more (2009-04-03)
High Speed Wireless Data Transfer from VTT, Technical Research Centre of Finland
VTT (Technical Research Centre of Finland) has developed a fast and flexible radio modem, enabling wireless indoor network. The performance of the modem is approximately 20-200 times better compared to similar commercial (WLAN, Bluetooth) technologies. If compared to GSM and UMTS technologies, the new modem is 5000 times faster than the former and... view more... (2002-09-02)
Statistics are insufficient for study of proteins' signal system
Ten years ago great attention was attracted by the discovery that it was possible to demonstrate signal transfer in proteins using statistical methods. In an article in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science (PNAS) Uppsala researchers are now presenting results of experiments that contradict the theory. view more (2008-03-27)
Systems properties of insulin signaling revealed
A team of Swedish researchers has characterized novel systems properties of insulin signaling in human fat cells. Their mathematical modeling, described in an article published June 20th in the open-access journal PLoS Computational Biology, provides further insight into energy level maintenance (via the hormone insulin) within our bodies. view more (2008-06-20)
New accredited Knowledge Transfer qualification launched
The continuing professional development arm of AURIL, AURIL-CPD, has launched a new accredited course - the Professional Award for Knowledge Transfer Practitioners. view more (2005-04-27)
From Darwin to Adelaide, the length of Australia, 3010 kilometres, without fuel!
On 19 October 30 cars will be jostling for position at the start of the 7th World Solar Challenge in Darwin, Australia. After winning in 2001 with Nuna I, the Nuon Solar Team, from the Netherlands, will be bidding to retain their title. The strong team of twelve from Delft University of Technology and Erasmus University Rotterdam are determined... view more... (2003-10-17)
How breastfeeding affects HIV transmission
Mother to child transmission of HIV accounts for a large proportion of HIV infections in children, with many infected as a result of breastfeeding, which requires transfer of the virus across mucosal barriers. view more (2005-10-21)
Taming Tiny, Unruly Waves for Nano Optics
Nanoscale devices present a unique challenge to any optical technology - there's just not enough room for light to travel in a straight line. view more (2007-10-09)
Magnetic nanoparticles navigate therapeutic genes through the body
Health professionals send genes and healthy cells on their way through the bloodstream so that they can, for example, repair tissue damage to arteries. view more (2009-03-05)
