Thyroid cancer discovery points to new treatments, prevention
The actions of a mutated protein in cells linked to thyroid cancer have been uncovered by researchers at Queen's University. view more (2006-11-16)
New study shows how genetic repair mechanism helps seal DNA breaks
As the genetic material, DNA is surprisingly reactive and under continuous assault from environmental toxins and reactive cellular metabolites, so a means of repairing DNA damage is essential to maintaining the integrity of our genetic blueprint for future generations. view more (2006-10-23)
Advances in understanding of the complexity of living cells: Molecular motors, tubes and adhesives, when a physicist meets a biologist"¦
One of the Institut Curie's great originalities, the interface between physics and cell biology, is a fertile terrain for discoveries. Dialogue between researchers of different backgrounds drives creativity, as witnessed by the rise in the number of Institut Curie publications on research work that melds physics and biology. In collaboration with... view more... (2004-12-14)
UT scientists discover link between protein and lung disease
In a development that could lead to a novel approach to the treatment of a devastating lung disease, biochemists at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston report they are the first to link the osteopontin (OPN) protein to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). view more (2009-09-16)
Is Biology Fieldwork In Schools Following The Dodo?
Biology fieldwork could be heading for extinction according to a report to be published on Friday 18 October by the Field Studies Council and the British Ecological Society. This loss of opportunity would rob young people of the rich personal benefits of out of school experiences as well as the educational value of such trips. Professor John Grace... view more...

New insights into neural tube defects
Environmental and genetic factors lead to neural tube defects in 1 in every 1,000 births and cause 1 in 20 of every spontaneous abortion. One cause of these defects is the failure of cells within the neural tube to migrate to the middle of the developing neural tube. view more (2006-01-12)
Darwin's greatest challenge tackled: the mystery of eye evolution
When Darwin's skeptics attack his theory of evolution, they often focus on the eye. Darwin himself confessed that it was "absurd" to propose that the human eye evolved through spontaneous mutation and natural selection. Scientists at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) have now tackled Darwin's major challenge in an... view more... (2004-10-26)
Researchers identify new function for protein missing in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Researchers at the University of Minnesota and National Institutes of Health have identified a new function for the protein missing in people with the most common and ultimately lethal form of childhood muscular dystrophy. view more (2009-08-04)
Marine bacterium suspected to play role in global carbon and nitrogen cycles
Scientists are now revisiting, and perhaps revising, their thinking about how Archaea, an ancient kingdom of single-celled microorganisms, are involved in maintaining the global balance of nitrogen and carbon. view more (2005-09-23)
Harvard scientists solve mystery about why HIV patients are more susceptible to TB infection
A team of Harvard scientists has taken an important first step toward the development of new treatments to help people with HIV battle Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) infection. view more (2009-07-01)
Model for Angelman syndrome developed by University of Texas at Austin biologists
A model for studying the genetics of Angelman syndrome, a neurological disorder that causes mental retardation and other symptoms in one out of 15,000 births, has been developed by biologists at The University of Texas at Austin. view more (2008-08-15)
Molecular probe 'paints' cancer cells in living animals, Stanford researchers find
Researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine have developed a molecular probe that sets aglow tumor cells within living animals. Their goal is to use the probe to improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and other diseases. view more (2007-09-10)
Family-Friendly, Flexible And Far-Reaching
EMBO fellowships extend eligibility criteria to promote equal opportunities The European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) today announced pioneering new eligibility criteria for its long-term and short-term fellowships. The new criteria cater for applicants with childcare commitments and scientists returning to work after a career break for... view more... (2004-07-22)

Jefferson researchers uncover new evidence of prolactin's possible role in breast cancer
Scientists at the Kimmel Cancer Center at Jefferson in Philadelphia have discovered new molecular evidence of the role of the hormone prolactin in breast cancer. view more (2007-10-01)
Worker ants of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your fertility
The highly specialized worker castes in ants represent the pinnacle of social organization in the insect world. As in any society, however, ant colonies are filled with internal strife and conflict. So what binds them together? More than 150 years ago, Charles Darwin had an idea and now he's been proven right. view more (2008-11-20)
