Physics provides new insights on cataract formation
Using the tools and techniques of soft condensed matter physics, a research team in Switzerland has demonstrated that a finely tuned balance of attractions between proteins keeps the lens of the eye transparent, and that even a small change in this balance can cause proteins to aggregate and de-mix. view more (2007-11-12)
Molds for Molecules
Molecular imprints in polymers as reaction vessels for pharmaceuticals research Materials with the tiniest of cavities, which can take up other molecules as "guests", play a meaningful role in science and technology. A particularly interesting process for the synthesis of materials with precisely fitted cavities is known as molecular imprinting.... view more... (2002-11-28)
Science Matters in Northern Ireland
SBS today welcomed the opening of the new Centre for Molecular Biosciences at the University of Ulster, but highlighted the general lack of government investment in science in Northern Ireland. In a talk to scientists in Northern Ireland, Dr Peter Cotgreave, Director of SBS, pointed out that overall government investment in the science base is... view more... (2002-02-01)
Less expensive anti-clotting medication appears as safe and effective as more expensive treatment
Subcutaneous (beneath the skin) injection of the original and less expensive form of the anticoagulant medication heparin is as effective and safe as subcutaneous administration of the newer and more expensive low-molecular-weight heparin for treatment of venous thromboembolism (blood clots in the deep veins of the legs or in the lungs). view more (2006-08-23)
New technique can be breakthrough for early cancer diagnosis
Early detection of disease is often critical to how successful treatment can be. Therefore, the development of new methods of diagnosis is a hot research field, where every small step is of great importance. In an article in the latest issue of Molecular & Cellular Proteomics, Uppsala University researchers describe a technique that the... view more... (2007-09-12)
Help For SMEs In Assessing Environmental Impact
Small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) can now assess the environmental impact of their products thanks to a pan-European project made possible by EU funding. The project - Electronic Life Cycle Assessment (eLCA) - received grants totalling more than EUR2.1 million from the Information Society Technology (IST) Programme of the European Union's... view more...

Mapping the Siberian forests
Three years ago, two containers with equipment for a mobile receiving station set off for Mongolia to begin one of the biggest remote-sensing campaigns ever undertaken in Europe: to image an area of global ecological importance, the central-Siberian forest, using three Earth Observation radar satellites. The new map of the Siberian forest is being... view more... (2000-10-27)
ELSO delivers the results of its petition to national Ministers for Research and Science
The political leaders of Europe - who make up the European Council of Ministers - have repeatedly endorsed the goal of making Europe a world-leading knowledge economy. First, at the Council meeting at Lisbon in 2000, they backed the European Commission's proposal to create a European Research Area, with the goal of making Europe "the most... view more...

The inside dope
Often, things can be improved by a little 'contamination.' Steel, for example is iron with a bit of carbon mixed in. To produce materials for modern electronics, small amounts of impurities are introduced into silicon - a process called doping. view more (2007-07-27)
Molecular studies in cancer of the colon
According to Dr. Jesús García-Foncillas, Director of the Department of Oncology at the University Hospital (University of Navarra), molecular studies in cancer of the colon will contribute to the establishment of more efficient and less toxic treatments. view more (2005-10-24)
Argonne scientists develop techniques for creating molecular movies
They may never win an Oscar, but scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have developed techniques for creating accurate movies of biological and chemical molecules, a feat only theorized up until now. view more (2008-04-16)
£17.5m Research Boost for University of Ulster
The University of Ulster today revealed details of an unprecedented £17.5m investment for research which will fund two exciting new world class facilities at its Coleraine and Magee College campuses. The two projects which have received funding under the DFHETE’s SPUR (Support Programme for University Research) are: The Centre for... view more... (2000-12-18)
Karlstad University and Ericsson in new global collaboration
At the same time as the Third World is expected to be the next huge market for western IT giants, it is also becoming more and more evident that information technology can help ameliorate the situation for the poorest of the poor. If it is adapted to their needs. Efficient communication has long been seen as a fundamental source of change and... view more... (2003-02-28)

New System Provides 'Real-Time' Tracking For Parcels
A new system that provides real-time, intelligent, end-to-end tracking and tracing for goods being transported around the world has been developed with the help of 2.5 million euros from the EUs Framework Programme. view more (2005-02-24)
Genetically engineered blood protein can be used to split water into oxygen and hydrogen
Scientists have combined two molecules that occur naturally in blood to engineer a molecular complex that uses solar energy to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. view more (2006-12-01)
34 million euros-worth of peace and quiet
How can noise levels be reduced? It's a question being investigated by researchers all over the world. Noise is now generally recognized as a serious form of environmental pollution. According to a study by the Bavarian state ministry of the environment and the EU White Paper on "European transport policy for 2010", over 100 million... view more... (2003-12-01)
