Nature surrenders flowery secrets to international team
The poet Dylan Thomas wrote, "The force that drives the green fuse drives the flower." Now, a team of international scientists has unlocked some of the secrets of that force: it has described the rules that govern how plants arrange flowers into branching structures, known in technical terms as 'inflorescences.' view more (2007-05-25)
New Research Helps Explain the Rise in Hospital MRSA Infections
New research by scientists by the University of Warwick may explain why methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections are so difficult to control in hospitals. MRSA is a major cause of invasive and sometimes deadly disease in hospitalised patients. Currently, attempts to prevent spread of these infections include isolating infected... view more...

Now Website Data Can Be Harnessed To Help Make Better Sales Forecasts
Being able to predict customer trends has just become much easier thanks to new research sponsored by the ESRC into the use of website and other new media data. A project led by Dr Bruce Hardie of the London Business School has resulted in the development of simple systems - or mathematical models - which can enable companies to describe, diagnose... view more...

ISHLT membership explores expansion of computer modeling system for organ allocation
The International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) announces evaluation of a new mathematical modeling system for lung allocation in the United States and the ethical issues surrounding organ allocation facing patients awaiting transplants. view more (2007-04-26)
U of M researchers determine structure of protein that mutates DNA of the AIDS virus HIV-1
Understanding the structure of proteins involved in inhibiting HIV-1 infection could help in the battle against AIDS, and University of Minnesota researchers have taken a crucial step in that direction. view more (2008-02-21)
Brain shows humans break down events into smaller units
In order to comprehend the continuous stream of cacophonies and visual stimulation that battle for our attention, humans will breakdown activities into smaller, more digestible chunks, a phenomenon that psychologists describe as "event structure perception." view more (2007-05-02)
Protein structure determined in living cells
The function of a protein is determined both by its structure and by its interaction partners in the cell. Until now, proteins had to be isolated for analyzing them. view more (2009-03-05)
Argonne scientists peer into heart of compound that may detect chemical, biological weapons
A light-transmitting compound that could one day be used in high-efficiency fiber optics and in sensors to detect biological and chemical weapons at long distance almost went undiscovered by scientists because its structure was too difficult to examine. view more (2008-09-29)
Scientists learn structure of enzyme in unusual virus
Biologists have determined the three-dimensional structure of an unusual viral enzyme that is required in the assembly of new viruses. view more (2007-09-18)
Viral oncoprotein inactivation of p53
A group of scientists led by USC researcher Dr. Xiaojiang Chen lend structural insight into tumor suppressor inactivation by a viral oncoprotein. view more (2006-09-01)
New treatment model for HIV
Treatment of HIV patients must balance the need to suppress viral replication against the harmful side effects and significant cost to the patient of antiretroviral therapy. view more (2007-07-13)
Groundbreaking Discovery May Lead to Stronger Antibiotics
The last decade has seen a dramatic decline in the effectiveness of antibiotics, resulting in a mounting public health crisis across the world. A new breakthrough by University of Virginia researchers provides physicians and patients a potential new approach toward the creation of less resistant and more effective antibiotics. view more (2008-10-02)
Improved technique determines structure in membrane proteins
Understanding the form and function of certain proteins in the human body is becoming faster and easier, thanks to the work of researchers at the University of Illinois. view more (2008-08-18)
The structure of resistance
A team of scientists from the University Paris Descartes has solved the structure of two proteins that allow bacteria to gain resistance to multiple types of antibiotics, according to a report in EMBO reports this month. view more (2008-02-25)
The dance of crystal structures
The word "crystal" is a technical term; iron and steel, for example, are crystals whereas glass is not. In fact, "crystal" means materials of a crystalline structure. view more (2004-11-10)
New model predicts damage to cheese
Researchers at a Dutch university have developed a model that predicts how cheese will change when a force is applied to it. This makes it possible to predict how cheese will be damaged during the packaging or transportation processes. Anna Rzepiela from Wageningen University simulated the influence of shearing and tensional forces on the... view more... (2003-04-11)
Model for cancer cure
The outcome for some cancer patients can now be predicted much earlier by making the right choice of treatment based on a mathematical model rather than the current life-table method, which has been in use for over 20 years, according to research published today in the Institute of Physics Journal Physics in Medicine & Biology. The paper`s... view more... (2002-10-23)
UCSD study reveals the regulatory mechanism of key enzyme
Research conducted at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine has shed new light on the structure and function of one of the key proteins in all mammalian cells, protein kinase A (PKA), an enzyme which plays an essential role in memory formation, communication between nerve cells, and cardiac function. view more (2007-09-21)
Yale scientists visualize the machinery of mRNA splicing
Recent research at Yale provided a glimpse of the ancient mechanism that helped diversify our genomes; it illuminated a relationship between gene processing in humans and the most primitive organisms by creating the first crystal structure of a crucial self-splicing region of RNA. view more (2008-04-07)
New imaging technique reveals the atomic structure of nanocrystals
A new imaging technique developed by researchers at the University of Illinois overcomes the limit of diffraction and can reveal the atomic structure of a single nanocrystal with a resolution of less than one angstrom (less than one hundred-millionth of a centimeter). view more (2009-02-19)
