Rethinking the genetic theory of inheritance
Scientists at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) have detected evidence that DNA may not be the only carrier of heritable information; a secondary molecular mechanism called epigenetics may also account for some inherited traits and diseases. view more (2009-01-20)
Scientific excellence through European collaboration: EUR 1 million EU Descartes Prize rewards two projects in the field of medicine and astrophysics
The EU Descartes Prize was awarded today to two research projects in the fields of medicine and astrophysics. One project greatly advanced our understanding of Multiple Sclerosis and is offering leads for new drugs. The other project has discovered the origins of Gamma Ray Bursts and is providing insights into star and planet formation. The EUR1... view more... (2002-12-05)
Mouse model underestimates the critical role of Tyk2 in human immune system
A new study identifies a human Tyk2 deficiency and definitively links this molecule with multiple cytokine signals that are critical for the human immune responses. view more (2006-11-10)
Researchers develop guidelines to establish identity of genes responsible for common, complex diseases
Scientists from Imperial College London, the Medical Research Council, Case Western Reserve University, USA and the Hammersmith Hospital have developed guidelines which scientists can use as a benchmark for proof of identification of the multiple genes responsible for common, complex diseases. Predisposition to common conditions such as asthma,... view more... (2002-12-18)
Improved immune diagnostics
With many forms of illness, such as allergies, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis or multiple sclerosis, the success of therapy can be shown by the absence or presence of certain cells and the proteins they produce. Today, this can be ascertained in a number of different ways. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Toxicology and Aerosol Research... view more... (2000-01-27)
Patients stay with phone psychotherapy longer than office visits
The problem with psychotherapy has long been that nearly half the patients quit going after a few sessions. Therapy can't work if patients stop coming to the therapist's office. view more (2008-09-22)
Higher risk for cervical cancer seen among women infected with multiple HPV types
The risk for developing the tissue abnormalities, or lesions, that typically precede cervical cancer is much higher for women infected with multiple genotypes of the human papillomavirus (HPV) than previously reported. view more (2006-07-11)
Broadcasters & Theatres' Music Costs Could Double To Recoup CD Sales Drop
Research by Dr Andrew Burke of Warwick Business School at the University of Warwick has concluded that the broadcasters and theatres could see the licenses which they pay to the music industry increase by up to 287%. Similarly, cinemas, nightclubs and retail outlets could encounter price increases for music licences in excess of 1000%. The... view more... (2004-02-02)
Prevention is the best option: fighting autoimmune diseases
Centenary scientist Associate Professor Barbara Fazekas de St. Groth, a leader in inflammatory bowel disease research, has demonstrated for the first time the important role of T cells in the prevention of autoimmune diseases in humans. view more (2006-07-07)
Obesity found to be a risk factor for multiple myeloma
An obese person is more likely than a lean person to develop multiple myeloma, according to researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and Harvard School of Public Health. view more (2007-07-20)
Harvard researchers publish MRI images of genes in action in the living brain
Biologists have just confirmed what poets have known for centuries: eyes really are windows of the soul-or at least of the brain. view more (2008-03-31)
Canada's universal health care system should fund in-vitro fertilization
Canada should extend universal health coverage to fund in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection. view more (2009-08-31)
Unexpected finding opens up new way to stop autoimmune diseases and transplant rejection
After several years of battling recurring infections, the last thing a patient and her doctors ever expected was that the cause of her problems might actually help millions live longer, more active lives. view more (2009-01-23)
How actin networks are actin'
Dynamic networks of growing actin filaments are critical for many cellular processes, including cell migration, intracellular transport, and the recovery of proteins from the cell surface. view more (2008-01-03)
New study shows how genes control blood proteins important to health
A new study shows how genes control levels of many blood proteins implicated in disease. The findings are the result of an international collaboration between scientists at the University of Exeter, the National Institute on Aging, and the Tuscany and Florence Health Agencies. view more (2008-05-09)
New study suggests potential for a broadly-protective HIV vaccine
New research conducted at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USU) suggests that it may be possible to develop a vaccine that protects against the myriad strains of the HIV virus. view more (2007-05-30)

Scientists have discovered a novel method to reduce cat allergic reactions by topping up the immune cells responsible for controlling them. view more (2005-04-06)
Statins have unexpected effect on pool of powerful brain cells
Cholesterol-lowering drugs known as statins have a profound effect on an elite group of cells important to brain health as we age, scientists at the University of Rochester Medical Center have found. The new findings shed light on a long-debated potential role for statins in the area of dementia. view more (2008-07-07)
MS patients not receiving medications to slow disease progression, research shows
