NIST method improves reliability of GPS clocks
Widely used by the military, first responders, surveyors and even consumers, GPS is a navigation and positioning system consisting of ground-based monitors and a constellation of satellites that rely on atomic clocks. view more (2005-10-10)
X-ray holograms expose secret magnetism
Collaborative research between scientists in the UK and USA has led to a major breakthrough in the understanding of antiferromagnets, published in this week's Nature. view more (2007-05-03)
Simple device which uses electrical field could boost gas efficiency
With the high cost of gasoline and diesel fuel impacting costs for automobiles, trucks, buses and the overall economy, a Temple University physics professor has developed a simple device which could dramatically improve fuel efficiency as much as 20 percent. view more (2008-09-26)

Nanoparticle-based battlefield pain treatment moves step closer
University of Michigan scientists have developed a combination drug that promises a safer, more precise way for medics and fellow soldiers in battle situations to give a fallen soldier both morphine and a drug that limits morphine's dangerous side effects. view more (2009-09-25)
Engineering researchers: Supercomputer fastest of its type in world
A supercomputer named Novo-G described by its lead designer as likely the most powerful computer of its kind in the world became operational this week at the University of Florida. view more (2009-07-24)
Spin-polarized electrons on demand
Many hopes are pinned on spintronics. In the future it could replace electronics, which in the race to produce increasingly rapid computer components, must at sometime reach its limits. Different from electronics, where whole electrons are moved (the digital "one" means "an electron is present on the component", zero means... view more... (2009-01-22)
New research shows that the seasons may be involved in onset of menopause
Research by Hungarian fertility experts published today (Thursday 10 June) in Europe's leading reproductive medicine journal Human Reproduction[1], has revealed that the onset of the menopause[2] may not be dictated only by the fact that a woman's lifetime supply of eggs are running low, but also by changes in the seasons. Analysis of reliable... view more... (2004-06-08)
Melatonin Most Effective For Sleep When Taken For Off-Hour Sleeping
Researchers from the Divisions of Sleep Medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School have found in a double-blind placebo-controlled clinical study, that melatonin, taken orally during non-typical sleep times, significantly improves an individual's ability to sleep. view more (2006-05-01)
New method for dating art prints and early books borrows know-how from genetic science
A new and relatively simple method for discovering the date when centuries-old art prints and books were produced has been developed at Penn State. view more (2006-06-21)
What is the life cycle of salmonella enteritidis like in the internal organs?
The Incidence of Salmonella enteritidis infection is common in hospitals for children and the elderly, and amongst immuno-suppressed individuals. view more (2008-03-18)
B2MIN9: Beagle 2 Teams Continue Efforts To Communicate With The Lander
Scientists are still waiting to hear from the Beagle 2 lander on Mars. Two attempts to communicate with Beagle 2 during the last 24 hours - first with the 250 ft (76 m) Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank Observatory in Cheshire, UK, and then this morning with the Mars Odyssey orbiter - ended without receiving a signal. Despite this outcome, two... view more... (2003-12-27)
New telomere discovery could help explain why cancer cells never stop dividing
A group working at the Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research (ISREC) in collaboration with the University of Pavia has discovered that telomeres, the repeated DNA-protein complexes at the end of chromosomes that progressively shorten every time a cell divides, also contain RNA. view more (2007-10-05)
Noise-Immune Stethoscope Helps Medics Hear Vital Signs in Loud Environments
A new type of stethoscope enables doctors to hear the sounds of the body in extremely loud situations, such as during the transportation of wounded soldiers in Blackhawk helicopters. view more (2006-11-29)
Emotional eaters susceptible to weight regain
Just in time for the start of the holiday eating season - a new study finds that dieters who have the tendency to eat in response to external factors, such as at festive celebrations, have fewer problems with their weight loss than those who eat in response to emotions (internal factors). view more (2007-11-09)

Many medical residents appear to lack biostatistics knowledge needed to interpret clinical research
Internal medicine residents had low scores in a test of biostatistics knowledge, and about three-fourths of the residents surveyed indicated they have low confidence in understanding the statistics they encounter in medical literature. view more (2007-09-05)
ACHEMASIA 2004: Mixing in Production: Interdigital Micro Structures Can Do It
The Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH (IMM) has developed the new SuperFocus Microstructure Mixer „SFIMM-V2" for industrial applications. With water-like liquids, the new high-throughput mixer achieves a mixing capacity of 350 litres per hour at a pressure loss of 10 bar. Mixing two dissolved reactants is completed in only four... view more... (2004-05-13)
