New oral angiogenesis inhibitor offers potential nontoxic therapy for a wide range of cancers
The first oral, broad-spectrum angiogenesis inhibitor, specially formulated through nanotechnology, shows promising anticancer results in mice, report researchers from Children's Hospital Boston. view more (2008-07-02)
Graffiti-free historic buildings
Many a historic landmark is defaced with graffiti, but the spray paint can only be removed - if at all - using caustic solutions which risk damaging the underlying surface. A new breathable coating provides efficient, all-round protection against attacks by taggers. view more (2009-09-11)
Structuring polymers by laser
Microstructured polymer components are often used to direct light in optical devices. As an alternative to mechanical processes, laser light can also be used to produce the microscopic relief structures, and even to remove them without contact. With a flash of blue-green light, the show begins. Like a line of silent ballet dancers, long-chain... view more... (2004-05-14)

A turf-cutting ceremony will take place on Wednesday 12 June at 12 noon on the site of the new £5.5million teaching centre at the University... view more... (2002-06-06)
Where Broken DNA is Repaired
Ionizing radiation, toxic chemicals, and other agents continually damage the body's DNA, threatening life and health: unrepaired DNA can lead to mutations, which in turn can lead to diseases like cancer. view more (2007-08-03)
MS that Runs in Families Appears More Severe than Non-Familial MS
Magnetic resonance images (MRI) of a large group of patients with multiple sclerosis has provided the first evidence that those with a history of MS in their families show more severe brain damage than patients who have no close relatives with the disease. view more (2007-10-12)

New Models of Weather Pattern
For a mathematician, Joseph Biello spends a lot of time thinking about the weather. But the UC Davis assistant professor isn't looking out the office window. He is using mathematical theory to build a model of the Madden-Julian Oscillation, a tropical weather pattern that influences drought and rainfall in the western U.S. view more (2005-12-12)
Hallucinations in schizophrenia linked to brain area that processes voices
For the first time, researchers using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have found both structural and functional abnormalities in specific brain regions of schizophrenic patients who experience chronic auditory hallucinations, according to a study published in the August issue of Radiology. view more (2007-07-31)
AFRICAN HIV-1 EPIDEMIC NOT CAUSED BY MORE INFECTIOUS VIRAL SUBTYPE (p 1149)
The explosive HIV-1 epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa is unlikely to be the result of a viral subtype with increased infectivity, according to the results of a study published in this week’s issue of THE LANCET. The HIV-1 epidemic in eastern and southern sub-Saharan Africa is mainly caused by HIV-1 subtypes A, C, and D, whereas those in the USA... view more... (2001-04-11)

Mailman School of Public Health researchers report blood DNA can be early predictor of liver cancer
Researchers at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health have discovered a means for early detection of liver cancer. Using DNA isolated from serum samples as a baseline biomarker, the scientists examined changes in certain tumor suppressor genes that have been associated with the development of liver carcinomas. view more (2007-04-16)
