New chip set to revolutionise science and medicine
An engineer at the University of Sheffield is leading a £4.5m project that could revolutionise the way scientists, medics and others see the world - by allowing the earlier detection of cancer, the instant analysis of medical screening tests, and permitting the emergency and security services to work effectively in murky surroundings. It... view more... (2004-05-18)
Communication satellites telling us where they are
Communication satellites will eventually be able to tell us where they are using new on board GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receivers that are being developed in a project funded by ESA. The project is nearing completion of its first phase. It focuses on designing receivers to pick up the additional L2C (L2 Civilian) and L5... view more... (2003-05-09)
Image Guided Treatment Helping Women with Tubo Ovarian Abscesses Avoid Unnecessary Surgery
Image guided drainage of tubo ovarian abscesses help women avoid surgery, according to a study performed at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, MA. Tubo ovarian abscesses (TOAs) are an infected collection of pus, involving a patient's fallopian tube(s) or ovaries.

Science and society in Europe - How to bridge the gaps?
The European Commission published today its latest Eurobarometer survey on "Europeans, science and technology". This comes just two days after the adoption of an action plan "Science and Society" which addresses some of the issues identified by the survey. Both the Eurobarometer results and the action plan were presented by EU Research... view more... (2001-12-06)

Singing in the rainforest: Public vs. private signaling by a tropical rainforest bird
According to the Chinese proverb, a bird sings because it has a song, not because it has an answer. A team of French and Brazilian researchers, however, may have the answer as to how the song of Brazilian white-browed warbler has become so well-adapted to the acoustic properties of the rainforest environment. view more (2008-02-13)
Cancer cell communication exposed

New "Gating" Device Improves Imaging of Heart and Lungs
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart and lungs is a valuable diagnostic tool in the medical industry, but the detailed images it produces are often marred by artefacts (unwanted signals) created by the motion of cardiac and respiratory cycles. A team of inventors at Oxford University has now developed a method of suppressing MRI artefacts... view more... (2003-09-05)
