Swell gel could bring relief to back pain sufferers
Scientists at The University of Manchester believe injections of tiny sponge-like particles could provide an alternative to major surgery in the treatment of chronic lower back pain. view more (2007-03-20)
'Double crystal fusion' could pave the way for portable device
Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have developed a tabletop accelerator that produces nuclear fusion at room temperature, providing confirmation of an earlier experiment conducted at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), while offering substantial improvements over the original design. view more (2006-02-14)
Sources of energy for the EFDA-JET nuclear fusion experimental reactor
JEMA, the company based in Lasarte in the Basque Country, has recently put into operation the two energy supply plants designed and manufactured for the European EFDA (the European Fusion Development Agreement)-JET nuclear fusion experimental reactor at Culham in the United Kingdom. This reactor is one of the plants on which ITER, the largest... view more... (2004-02-19)
In lab study, researchers find molecule that disrupts Ewing's sarcoma oncogene
Researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center have found a small molecule they say can block the action of the oncogene that causes Ewing's sarcoma, a rare cancer found in children and young adults. If further studies continue to prove beneficial, they say the novel agent could be the first targeted therapy to treat the disease, which can... view more... (2008-04-14)
Nuclear fusion-fission hybrid could contribute to carbon-free energy future
Physicists at The University of Texas at Austin have designed a new system that, when fully developed, would use fusion to eliminate most of the transuranic waste produced by nuclear power plants. view more (2009-01-28)
UW-Madison stellerator a step forward in plasma research
A project by University of Wisconsin-Madison researchers has come one step closer to making fusion energy possible. view more (2007-03-12)
Newly Discovered Gene Fusion May Lead to Improved Prostate Cancer Diagnosis
Researchers from NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center have discovered a new gene fusion that is highly expressed in a subset of prostate cancers. view more (2009-07-24)
New spaceship force field makes Mars trip possible
According to the international space agencies, "Space Weather" is the single greatest obstacle to deep space travel. Radiation from the sun and cosmic rays pose a deadly threat to astronauts in space. view more (2008-11-04)
New understanding of Ewing's sarcoma suggests novel treatment strategy
Using molecular and cell-based models, researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center have refined the picture of how a cancer-promoting protein associated with Ewing's sarcoma functions. view more (2006-06-01)
Structure of viral harpoon protein reveals how viruses enter cells
A team of Northwestern University researchers has solved the structure of a molecule that controls the ability of viruses of the paramyxovirus family, including the viruses that cause measles, mumps, and many human respiratory diseases, to fuse with and infect human cells. view more (2006-01-05)
Signs of ideal surfing conditions spotted in ocean of solar wind
Researchers at the University of Warwick have found what could be the signal of ideal wave "surfing" conditions for individual particles within the massive turbulent ocean of the solar wind. view more (2009-08-31)
The little beam that could
Scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory, in collaboration with researchers from the University of Nevada, Reno, Ludwig-Maximilian-University in Germany, and the Max-Planck-Institute for Quantum Optics in Germany, have developed a new method for using a laser beam to accelerate ions. view more (2006-02-01)
The future of personalized cancer treatment: An entirely new direction for RNAi delivery
In technology that promises to one day allow drug delivery to be tailored to an individual patient and a particular cancer tumor, researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine, have developed an efficient system for delivering siRNA into primary cells. view more (2009-05-18)
Weizmann Institute scientists discover a key player in embryonic muscle development
Muscle fibers are large cells that contain many nuclei. They begin, like all animal cells, as naive embryonic cells. These cells differentiate, producing intermediate cells called myoblasts that are now destined to become muscle. view more (2007-04-12)
When will India have fusion power plants?
What role could fusion power plants play in the future energy supply of India - one of the world's most highly populated and rapidly expanding countries? How might India's overall energy requirements develop till the year 2100, what technologies will cover them, and what influence will this have on the production of greenhouse gases? These... view more... (2002-03-05)
New sonofusion experiment produces results without external neutron source
A team of researchers from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Purdue University, and the Russian Academy of Sciences has used sound waves to induce nuclear fusion without the need for an external neutron source. view more (2006-01-30)
Carnegie Mellon scientists find key HIV protein makes cell membranes bend more easily
Carnegie Mellon University scientists have made an important discovery that aids the understanding of why HIV enters immune cells with ease. view more (2007-07-26)
Putting the heat on components
Europe's most modern facility for testing large, heat-resistant components used in fusion devices is now in operation at Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmapyhsik (IPP) in Garching near Munich. The special feature of GLADIS (Garching Large Divertor Sample Test Facility): The heat test facility is suitable for investigating not only small samples... view more... (2005-02-16)
World Record Plasma Discharge in Tore Supra
On July 30th 2002, the engineers and scientists of the Association Euratom-CEA in Cadarache (France) have achieved a three and a half minutes long plasma discharge on Tore Supra, sustained by 3MW of current drive power, thus requiring to exhaust more than 600 Megajoules of thermal energy during the experiment. It establishes a new world record in... view more... (2002-08-02)
