Using nanotechnology, UCLA researchers discover cancer cells 'feel' much softer than normal cells
A multidisciplinary team of UCLA scientists were able to differentiate metastatic cancer cells from normal cells in patient samples using leading-edge nanotechnology that measures the softness of the cells. view more (2007-12-03)
Researching neglected fields of science
Independent scientist Brian J Ford will undertake interdisciplinary scientific research in neglected fields thanks to a £75,000 Fellowship from NESTA (the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts), the organisation that invests in UK creativity and innovation. Brian, from Eastrea in Cambridgeshire, has an international... view more... (2004-05-10)

New, more direct pathways from outside the cell-to-cell nuclei discovered
A team of Brooklyn College researchers has shattered a long-held belief that no direct pathway exists between material outside of a cell and the cell nucleus. (The cell is the smallest metabolically functional unit of life.) view more (2007-08-13)

Millennium Technology Prize received over 70 nominations
More than 70 innovators from around the world, who have developed technology which improves people's quality of life, have been nominated for the first-ever Millennium Technology Prize. The Prize will be awarded next summer in Finland. The nomination period for the one million euro prize closed at the end of December 2003. The Finnish Technology... view more... (2004-01-05)
Lule'å University of Technology first online in Swedish high-speed net
Lule'å University of Technology is the first university in Sweden to connect to the new nationwide high-speed net Gigasunet. Gigasunet is the successor to today's Swedish University Net (SUNET), with a capacity of 10 gigabits per second between nodes at 22 locations in Sweden. All Swedish universities and colleges will be connected at 2.5... view more... (2002-02-27)

Research Will Push Forward Fight Against Leukaemia
A project which aims to make laboratory-grown leukaemia cells change form and then be used to prime a patient's own immune system to kill off malignant cells has begun in Edinburgh. If successful, the study could give clinicians a way of destroying residual leukaemic cells which are undetectable by microscope. The findings could be helpful in the... view more... (2002-10-25)
The giant protein titin helps build muscles
Under the microscope, muscle looks like millions of tiny pistons, stacked end-to-end into long rows. These structures, called sarcomeres, permit the contraction and relaxation of muscle that allow our bodies to move. view more (2006-01-12)
Clemson scientists shed light on molecules in living cells
Clemson University chemists have developed a method to dramatically improve the longevity of fluorescent nanoparticles that may someday help researchers track the motion of a single molecule as it travels through a living cell. view more (2007-08-21)
A new window into the deformation of nanoscale materials
Materials on the nanoscale don't always have the same properties they would in bulk; for one thing, nanomaterials are often a lot harder. Unlike most bulk materials, a crystal that is small enough can be perfect, free of defects, capable of achieving strength near its ideal theoretical limit. view more (2006-08-14)
One membrane, many frequencies
Modern hearing aids, though quite sophisticated, still do not faithfully reproduce sound as hearing people perceive it. New findings at the Weizmann Institute of Science shed light on a crucial mechanism for discerning different sound frequencies and thus may have implications for the design of better hearing aids. view more (2007-03-28)
Argonne's Hard X-ray Nanoprobe provides new capability to study nanoscale materials
The Center for Nanoscale Materials' (CNM) newly operational Hard X-ray Nanoprobe at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory is one of the world's most powerful x-ray microscopes. view more (2008-06-25)
The structure of a giant virus
The mimivirus is the largest virus known to scientists, about half of a micrometre (0.0005 millimeter) in diameter. It is more than 10 times larger than the virus that causes the common cold and - unlike other viruses - is large enough to be seen with a light microscope. view more (2009-04-28)
Researchers improve ability to write and store information on electronic devices
ew research led by the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory physicist Matthias Bode provides a more thorough understanding of new mechanisms, which makes it possible to switch a magnetic nanoparticle without any magnetic field and may enable computers to more accurately write and store information. view more (2007-09-14)
Bright white beetle dazzles scientists
An obscure species of beetle could teach us how to produce brilliant white ultra-thin materials, according to a research team led by the University of Exeter. view more (2007-01-19)
Researchers bend light through waveguides in colloidal crystals
Researchers at the University of Illinois are the first to achieve optical waveguiding of near-infrared light through features embedded in self-assembled, three-dimensional photonic crystals. view more (2008-01-08)
