Forget all about it: Traumatic memories can be erased
It is well known that fear memories are permanent. However, a recent paper in Science, evaluated by three Faculty Members for F1000, reports an extraordinary finding that supports the use of a drug to control recollections of traumatic incidents. view more (2009-11-10)
Testing your reflexes until you've had enough
Can't squeeze in another mouthful? Feeling full is all a question of reflexes, according to Leeds biomedical researcher Dr David Lewis. He hopes to open the way for new therapies to treat obesity, by looking at how, why and when our brain tells our stomach it's had enough. The basic reflexes controlling eating are centred in the hindbrain - the... view more... (2002-05-20)
Scientists advance safety of nanotechnology
Scientists have identified for the first time a mechanism by which nanoparticles cause lung damage and have demonstrated that it can be combated by blocking the process involved, taking a step toward addressing the growing concerns over the safety of nanotechnology. view more (2009-06-11)
Using Nanoparticles, In Vivo Gene Therapy Activates Brain Stem Cells
Using customized nanoparticles that they developed, University at Buffalo scientists have for the first time delivered genes into the brains of living mice with an efficiency that is similar to, or better than, viral vectors and with no observable toxic effect, according to a paper published this week in Proceedings of the National Academy of... view more...

Strategies for preventing gastrointestinal complications in severely burned patients
Gastrointestinal dysfunction is a common complication of severe burns. Injury to GI function, especially to GI barrier function, is an important initiator as well as a stimulator for occurrence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome, sepsis and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome following severe burns. view more (2008-09-18)
Tumor cell activity may provide clues for treating breast cancer in young women
When women under 50 develop breast cancer the disease tends to be more aggressive and less responsive to treatment than when it occurs in older women. view more (2007-06-04)
Stem cell therapies for heart disease -- 1 step closer
New research from the University of Bristol brings stem cell therapies for heart disease one step closer. The findings reveal that our bodies' ability to respond to an internal 'mayday' signal may hold the key to success for long-awaited regenerative medicine. view more (2008-10-31)
Fine-tuning treatments for depression
