New clues about mitochondrial 'growth spurts'
Mitochondria are restless, continually merging and splitting. But contrary to conventional wisdom, the size of these organelles depends on more than fusion and fission, as Berman et al. show. Mitochondrial growth and degradation are also part of the equation. view more (2009-03-02)
UK Fusion Research awarded £48M grant from EPSRC
UKAEA Culham Division has just received the largest grant ever awarded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). The grant of £48M will fund the UK fusion research programme for a period of four years, commencing 1 April 2004. UKAEA Culham is one of the world's leading centres for fusion research, where scientists... view more... (2004-02-16)
Fusion to play part in UK energy strategy
Fusion is one of the research areas picked out for energy investment from the UK government by the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee in its Report on Energy Research published yesterday. The report "Towards a non-carbon fuel economy: research, development and demonstration" looks at the state of development of different... view more... (2003-04-04)
Researchers identify mechanism that helps bacteria avoid destruction in cells
Infectious diseases currently cause about one-third of all human deaths worldwide, more than all forms of cancer combined. Advances in cell biology and microbial genetics have greatly enhanced understanding of the cause and mechanisms of infectious diseases. view more (2009-10-12)
Green light for fusion energy with PetaWatt lasers
The production of fusion energy with a PetaWatt laser is a step closer now that a team of scientists from Japan and the UK has demonstrated that the physics works. Using the GEKKO XII laser system at the Osaka University in Japan, the team has successfully conducted experiments at laser powers equivalent to those required for a full-scale ignition... view more...

'Fusion' protein found by Johns Hopkins researchers
Working with fruit flies, scientists at Johns Hopkins have discovered a protein required for two neighboring cells to fuse and become one "super cell." view more (2007-04-11)
GUMC discovery highlights new direction for drug discovery
In a discovery that rebuffs conventional scientific thinking, researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center (GUMC) have discovered a novel way to block the activity of the fusion protein responsible for Ewing's sarcoma, a rare cancer found in children and young adults. view more (2009-07-06)
Europe collaborates on JET Enhancements
Teams of scientists and engineers from across Europe have been working to equip the world`s largest fusion experiment JET with enhanced power and diagnostic capabilities for use in its 2002 experimental programme starting in March. A first set of enhancement projects launched in the last 2 years under the European Fusion Development Agreement... view more... (2001-12-18)
Scientists identify molecular structure of key viral protein
Scientists at Northwestern University have determined the molecular structure of a viral protein, the parainfluenza virus 5 fusion (F) protein. view more (2006-01-05)
Study identifies molecular process underlying leukemia
New research from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has identified a molecular process in cells that is crucial to the development of two common leukemias. view more (2006-08-22)
German fusion device becomes European research tool
The ASDEX Upgrade research device, operated by Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmaphysik (IPP) in Garching, near Munich, as Germany's largest fusion device, is being opened to use by fusion laboratories from all over Europe. The appointment of Dr. Duarte Borba from Portugal's Instituto Superior Technico in Lisbon as one of five task force heads at... view more... (2002-12-02)
Research casts doubt on controversial scientific theory
Scientists at the University of Sheffield have cast doubt on the validity of the controversial theory of biological cold fusion, the principle sometimes used to lend credence to the practice of selling silicon tablets to strengthen bones, on the assumption that the body will turn the silicon into calcium. view more (2003-05-07)
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)
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)
Astrophysicists find fractal image of Sun's 'Storm Season' imprinted on Solar Wind
Plasma astrophysicists at the University of Warwick have found that key information about the Sun's 'storm season' is being broadcast across the solar system in a fractal snapshot imprinted in the solar wind. view more (2007-05-29)
Received Truth Turned On End In Cancer Research
It has long been the accepted view of cancer researchers that there is a difference between the mechanism behind the development of leukemias, on the one hand, and solid tumors like breast cancer, prostate cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, etc, on the other. A research team at the Section for Clinical Genetics at Lund University in Sweden is now... view more... (2004-04-06)
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)
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)
Report of the ITER Council, Vienna, Austria, 18 -19 July 2001
Upon the successful completion of the ITER Engineering Design Activities the ITER Council, the governing body of this venture, with representatives of the European Union, Japan, and the Russian Federation, assembled for its last meeting on July 18 and 19 at the Vienna IAEA headquarters. ITER is an international fusion energy research and... view more... (2001-07-23)
US committee recommends participation in the ITER project
The Fusion Energy Sciences Advisory Committee (FESAC) recommends in a recent report the return of the USA as a full partner to the international ITER cooperation, with an annual financial contribution to the project of 100 million US dollars. The ITER experimental fusion reactor is being jointly prepared by the fusion programmes of Europe, Japan,... view more... (2002-09-24)
