Developmental delay could stem from nicotinic receptor deletion
The loss of a gene through deletion of genetic material on chromosome 15 is associated with significant abnormalities in learning and behavior, said a consortium of researchers led by Baylor College of Medicine (www.bcm.edu) in a report that appears online today in the journal Nature Genetics. view more (2009-11-09)
Scientists Create the First Synthetic Nanoscale Fractal Molecule
From snowflakes to the leaves on a tree, objects in nature are made of irregular molecules called fractals. Scientists now have created and captured an image of the largest man-made fractal molecule at the nanoscale. view more (2006-05-12)
Tomorrow's green nanofactories
Viruses are notorious villains. They cause serious human diseases like AIDS, polio, and influenza, and can lead to system crashes and data loss in computers. view more (2007-07-10)
Mayo Clinic researchers discover a genetic cause for atrial fibrillation
Mayo Clinic investigators have discovered a gene mutation causing chaotic electrical activation of the heart muscle and atrial fibrillation (AF), a common heart-rhythm disturbance affecting millions of Americans. Atrial fibrillation can lead to heart failure and stroke. view more (2006-07-20)
Topical Papers in Biochemical Journal - Selective determination of mitochandrial chelatable iron in viable cells with a new fluorescent sensor
This paper by Petrat and colleagues marks an important advance in our understanding of the regulation of iron in the human body. Real-time changes in the concentration of the ionized form of iron (Fe2+) can now be monitored within the mitochondria of living cells for the first time, thanks to the technique described in this article. For some... view more... (2002-02-08)
MIT creates new material for fuel cells
MIT engineers have improved the power output of one type of fuel cell by more than 50 percent through technology that could help these environmentally friendly energy storage devices find a much broader market, particularly in portable electronics. view more (2008-05-16)
MIT: Preventing forest fires with tree power
MIT researchers and colleagues are working to find out whether energy from trees can power a network of sensors to prevent spreading forest fires. view more (2008-09-22)
Epilepsy genes may cancel each other
Inheriting two genetic mutations that can individually cause epilepsy might actually be "seizure-protective," said Baylor College of Medicine researchers in a report that appears online today in the journal Nature Neuroscience. view more (2007-11-05)
Treatment blocks pain without disrupting other functions
A combination of two drugs can selectively block pain-sensing neurons in rats without impairing movement or other sensations such as touch, according to a new study by National Institutes of Health (NIH)-supported investigators. view more (2007-10-04)
The Mechanisms of Atmospheric Nucleation
Aerosol particles are ubiquitous in Earth's atmosphere, influencing the quality of life through their climatic and health effects and by affecting visibility. In recent years, the formation and growth of nanometer-scale particles have been observed in situ in many different atmospheric environments, including urban plumes, clean arctic air, the... view more...

How sperm crack the whip
Researchers have identified a key component of the mechanism spermatozoa use to abruptly convert their tail motion from a steady swimming undulation to the whip-cracking snap that thrusts them into an egg. view more (2006-02-09)
Forsyth scientists trigger cancer-like response from embryonic stem cells
Scientists from The Forsyth Institute, working with collaborators at Tufts and Tuebingen Universities, have discovered a new control over embryonic stem cells' behavior. view more (2008-10-14)
Catalysis discovery takes aim at NOx emissions
A discovery in molecular chemistry may help remove a barrier to widespread use of diesel and other fuel-efficient "lean burn" vehicle engines. Researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have recorded the first observations of how certain catalyst materials used in emission control devices are... view more...

Study: Nanotech processing 'greener' than oil refining
Using a method for assessing the premiums that companies pay for insurance, a team of scientists and insurance experts have concluded that the manufacturing processes for five, near-market nanomaterials - including quantum dots, carbon nanotubes and buckyballs - present fewer risks to the environment than some common industrial processes like oil... view more...

Microbes at work cleaning up the environment
It may sound counterintuitive to use a microbial protein to improve water quality. view more (2007-06-18)
Study provides insight on a common heart rhythm disorder
University of Iowa researchers and colleagues in France have identified a gene variant that causes a potentially fatal human heart rhythm disorder called sinus node disease. view more (2008-10-08)
Mini-batteries for mobile phones
CIDETEC is working on a project the aim of which is to carry out a direct assessment of the technology of fuel cells for "mini" applications which have between 1 and 10 watt power requirements - such as for mobile phone or PDA chargers or for remote signalling, etc. to this end, a series of technologies are being developed in order to... view more...

Orange juice is better than lemonade at keeping kidney stones away
A daily glass of orange juice can help prevent the recurrence of kidney stones better than other citrus fruit juices such as lemonade, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have discovered. view more (2006-09-01)
U of T led research team uncovers evolutionary origins of prion disease gene
A University of Toronto-led team has uncovered the evolutionary ancestry of the prion gene, which may reveal new understandings of how the prion protein causes diseases such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), also known as "mad cow disease." view more (2009-09-29)
MIT physicists create new form of matter
MIT scientists have brought a supercool end to a heated race among physicists: They have become the first to create a new type of matter, a gas of atoms that shows high-temperature superfluidity. view more (2005-06-22)
