Engineers create mathematical method to design better robots, structures
Mechanical and civil engineers have created a new mathematical method to design better structures, machines and versatile computer-controlled robots called "robot manipulators." view more (2006-01-12)
Scientists a step closer to producing fuel from bacteria
Scientists at the University of Sheffield have shown how bacteria could be used as a future fuel. The research, published in the journal Bioinformatics, could have significant implications for the environment and the way we produce sustainable fuels in the future. view more (2008-08-07)
The structure of a key enzyme for infectious diseases solved at ESRF
A European team of scientists from the University of Dundee (UK), the Technical University of Munich (Germany) and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, ESRF, (France) have determined the structure of a key target enzyme for novel drug development to treat infectious diseases including malaria, tuberculosis and sexually transmitted... view more...

Theory stretches the limits of composite materials
In an advance that could lead to composite materials with virtually limitless performance capabilities, a University of Wisconsin-Madison scientist has dispelled a 50-year-old theoretical notion that composite materials must be made only of "stable" individual materials to be stable overall. view more (2007-02-01)
Using 'minutiae' to match fingerprints can be accurate
A study by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows that computerized systems that match fingerprints using interoperable minutiae templates-mathematical representations of a fingerprint image-can be highly accurate as an alternative to the full fingerprint image. view more (2006-03-21)
UW scientists unlock major number theory puzzle
Mathematicians have finally laid to rest the legendary mystery surrounding an elusive group of numerical expressions known as the "mock theta functions." view more (2007-02-28)
Geometry shapes sound of music
Through the ages, the sound of music in myriad incarnations has captivated human beings and made them sing along, and as scholars have suspected for centuries, the mysterious force that shapes the melodies that catch the ear and lead the voice is none other than math. view more (2008-04-21)
Researchers master one of the largest, most complicated mathematical structures
Ever since 1887, when Norwegian mathematician Sophus Lie discovered the mathematical group called E8, researchers have been trying to understand the extraordinarily complex object described by a numerical matrix of more than 400,000 rows and columns. view more (2007-03-21)
The math of deadly waves
When Walter Craig saw the images of the devastating 2004 Boxing Day Indian Ocean tsunami he felt compelled to act. So he grabbed a pencil and envelope and started calculating. view more (2006-02-21)
Turning huge data volumes into images
The first thing that a CAT scan of the human heart produces is simply data. Together with graphics hardware, the image processing software then constructs a picture that can be displayed on the computer. It's only natural that medical personnel, and even materials researchers, desire the most detailed images possible. But this always means... view more... (2003-02-20)
Virginia Tech's System X supercomputer provides super tool for simulation of cell division
Virginia Tech researchers in computer science and biology have used the university's supercomputer, System X, to create models and algorithms that make it possible to simulate the cell cycle — the processes leading to cell division. view more (2007-01-31)
Cows as unravellers
Long-term conservation of biodiversity may depend not only on the maintenance of its component parts but also on their interactions. Human-aided species introductions stand out as a major anthropogenic modification of ecological systems, and there is increasing concern that such introductions can modify interactions among species in the invaded... view more...

Family structure size could affect breast cancer risk prediction accuracy for BRCA gene testing
Researchers have found that the probability of the breast cancer gene mutation BRCA among women with a history of breast cancer is greater when the number of older, female relatives in the family is smaller. view more (2007-06-20)
Speaking Welsh may help with Maths
If you want your children to do well in Maths, it might help if they can speak Welsh. In Welsh, like Japanese, Korean and Chinese languages, numbers are named in a way which directly reflects their numerical properties, this helps children who speak Welsh understand numbers better than their English counterparts. 'These... view more... (2001-08-31)
Genetically engineered bacteria compute the route
US researchers have created 'bacterial computers' with the potential to solve complicated mathematics problems. view more (2009-07-24)
Powerful genome ID method extended to humans
A mathematical discovery has extended the reach of a novel genome mapping method to humans, potentially giving cancer biology a faster and more cost-effective tool than traditional DNA sequencing. view more (2006-10-10)
Scientists step closer to realising invisible technology
A unique computer model designed by a mathematician at the University of Liverpool has shown that it is possible to make objects, such as aeroplanes and submarines, appear invisible at close range. view more (2007-05-04)
Crystal structure enables tailoring of pharmaceuticals against asthma
Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have managed to elucidate the crystal structure of a human membrane protein - LTC4 synthase - which has a major influence on the development of asthma. view more (2007-07-17)
Towards a truly clever Artificial Intelligence
A pioneering new way of creating computer programs could be used in the future to design and build robots with minds that function like that of a human being, according to a leading researcher at The University of Reading. view more (2005-02-04)
Study provides new data about the laws governing embryo development in organisms
Research aimed at understanding the mechanisms underlying embryo development has taken a step forward thanks to collaborative work between biologists specialized in the study of the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) and scientists specialized in the design of mathematical models that simulate the functioning of biological systems. view more (2007-07-11)
