New Speed Record for Magnetic Memories
Fast memory chips such as DRAMs and SRAMs (Dynamic and Static Random Access Memory) commonly used today have one decisive disadvantage: in case of power interruption, they lose their stored information. view more (2008-08-19)
'Killer' cells used to combat rare cancer
Scientists from the University of Edinburgh are using immune cells harvested from blood donors to help fight an unusual cancer which can affect transplant patients. And their findings, published recently in The Lancet show that the therapy has proved effective in a number of cases. The treatment proved successful last year in saving the life of a... view more...

On the (sound) track of anesthetics
Danish scientists challenge the accepted scientific views of how nerves function and of how anesthetics work. Their research suggests that action of nerves is based on sound pulses and that anesthetics inhibit their transmission. view more (2007-03-07)
Cluster helps to protect astronauts and satellites against 'killer electrons'
ESA's Cluster mission has revealed a new creation mechanism of 'killer electrons'-highly energetic electrons that are responsible for damaging satellites and posing a serious hazard to astronauts. view more (2005-12-23)
A novel X-ray source could be brightest in the world
The future of high-intensity x-ray science has never been brighter now that scientists at U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory have devised a new type of next generation light sources. view more (2008-06-23)
T cells activated to fight HIV basis for dendritic cell therapeutic vaccine
Having their immune system cells go through a laboratory version of boot camp may help patients win their battle against HIV. view more (2006-08-14)
Bright idea illuminates LED standards
The lack of common measurement methods among light-emitting diode (LED) and lighting manufacturers has affected the commercialization of solid-state lighting products. view more (2008-11-26)
Engineered killer T cell recognizes HIV-1's lethal molecular disguises
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and colleagues in the United Kingdom have engineered T cells able to recognize HIV-1 strains that have evaded the immune system. view more (2008-11-10)
University of Ulster Develops DNA Analysis Technique in Fight Against Bio-Terrorism
A University of Ulster researcher has pioneered new analytical techniques that could save thousands of lives in the event of a bioterrorist attack. Dr Colm Lowery, from the School of Biological and Environmental Sciences, has developed a revolutionary method of detecting the killer bugs that could wipe out entire populations if terrorists strike.... view more...

Quicker, Better Drugs To Tackle Diseases
Applications open for £3m fund for chemicals industry Groundbreaking treatments of killer diseases could be made available to patients more quickly after cures have been discovered, under projects to share up to £3m of new funding, the Government announced today. The chemicals and pharmaceutical industry are expected to benefit from... view more... (2001-07-31)
A potential treatment for gastric motility disorders
GES or pacing has been under investigation as a potential therapy for gastrointestinal motility disorders. Conventionally, GES is performed using a single pair of electrodes or single-channel GES. view more (2009-06-11)
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)
Chronic Infection Now Clearly Tied to Immune-System Protein
The reason deadly infections like human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C never go away is because these viruses disarm the body's defense system. view more (2009-05-15)
High-frequency cryocooler is tiny, cold and efficient
A new cryogenic refrigerator has been demonstrated at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) that operates at twice the usual frequency, achieving a long-sought combination of small size, rapid cooling, low temperatures and high efficiency. view more (2007-02-16)
Heat microinterchanger
Sener Engineering, TEKNIKER Technology Centre, both from the Basque Country, and the Carlos III University and the Eduardo Torroja CSIC (Higher Centre for Scientific Research) are putting the final touches to a prototype for a heat microinterchanger. Its function, as does any of its conventionally-sized counterparts, is the heat interchange of... view more... (2003-01-07)
What Can Be Found Out By Pulse
Simple and quick method of variation pulsometry allows to evaluate the state of the organism during mass examinations, and in some cases, the researchers believe, is able to replace electroencephalography monitoring. view more (2005-05-20)
Ultrafast lasers take 'snapshots' as atoms collide
Using laser pulses that last just 70 femtoseconds (quadrillionths of a second), physicists have observed in greater detail than ever before what happens when atoms collide. view more (2005-10-21)
International Dawn Chorus Day - Sunday 2nd May 2004
As nature lovers all over the world wake up to enjoy the enthusiastic sounds of birdsongs on International Dawn Chorus Day on 2 May, scientists at British Antarctic Survey's (BAS) Halley Research Station will listen to a very different Dawn Chorus. Each morning, as the Earth and its enveloping atmosphere turn towards the Sun, very low frequency... view more... (2004-04-29)
A Single-Photon Server with Just One Atom
Every time you switch on a light bulb, 10 to the power of 15 (a million times a billion) visible photons, the elementary particles of light, are illuminating the room in every second. If that is too many for you, light a candle. view more (2007-03-13)
New study finds how cells with damaged DNA alert the immune system
Research led by biologists at the University of California, Berkeley, has found that damage to a cell's DNA sets off a chain reaction that leads to the increased expression of a marker recognized by the body's immune system. view more (2005-07-05)
