Using Life's Building Blocks to Control Nanoparticle Assembly
Using DNA, the molecule that carries life's genetic instructions, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory are studying how to control both the speed of nanoparticle assembly and the structure of its resulting nanoclusters. view more (2007-08-23)
Proofreading and error-correction in nanomaterials inspired by nature
Mimicking nature, a procedure developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign can find and correct defects in self-assembled nanomaterials. view more (2005-10-19)
Nanoparticle Assembly Enters the Fast Lane
The speed of nanoparticle assembly can be accelerated with the assistance of the molecule that carries life's genetic instructions, DNA, a team of researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory recently found. view more (2006-10-12)
Bio-inspired assembly of nanoparticle building blocks
Chemists at Rice University have discovered how to assemble gold and silver nanoparticle building blocks into larger structures based on a novel method that harkens back to one of nature's oldest known chemical innovations - the self-assembly of lipid membranes that surround every living cell. view more (2006-11-28)
All done with mirrors: NIST microscope tracks nanoparticles in 3-D
A clever new microscope design allows nanotechnology researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to track the motions of nanoparticles in solution as they dart around in three dimensions. view more (2008-03-11)
Researchers make nanosheets that mimic protein formation
University of Michigan researchers have discovered a way to make nanocrystals in a fluid assemble into free-floating sheets the same way some protein structures form in living organisms. view more (2006-10-13)
Berkeley Researchers Find New Route to Nano Self-Assembly
If the promise of nanotechnology is to be fulfilled, nanoparticles will have to be able to make something of themselves. An important advance towards this goal has been achieved by researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) who have found a simple and yet powerfully robust way to induce... view more...

Targeted nanoparticles incorporating siRNA offer promise for cancer treatment
The use of targeted nanoparticles offers promising techniques for cancer treatment. Researchers in the laboratory of Mark E. Davis at the California Institute of Technology have been using small interfering RNA (siRNA), sometimes known as silencing RNA, to "silence" specific genes that are implicated in certain malignancies. view more (2007-05-21)
Cutaneous application of nanoparticles offers hope for treatment of erectile dysfunction
Cutaneous application of nanoparticles may offer a new means of delivering drugs to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), according to findings presented at the 104th Annual Scientific Meeting of the American Urological Association (AUA). view more (2009-04-27)
Researchers Show Impact On Parties Of Shifting To A New Welsh Voting System
Wales could move easily to a new voting system for the Welsh Assembly, without significantly shifting the balance of power between the political parties, according to a new model being presented today by academics at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth. The Richard Commission, which reported on the future of Welsh devolution in March 2004,... view more... (2004-06-22)
EDCTP appoints Interim Executive Director
On 10 December 2004 the governing body of the EDCTP (European & Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership), the EEIG-Assembly, appointed Prof. Bernt Lindtj'¸rn as Interim Executive Director of EDCTP. He will assume this position on December 20 for a period of up to six months until a new Executive Director has been appointed. Prof.... view more... (2004-12-21)
California gets tough on pain in medical training
A hearing of the Assembly Health Committee later this year will find out whether California's medical schools, hospitals, and nursing homes are complying with new legislation and getting tough on pain. Assembly Bill 791, which came into effect last January, compels State medical schools to include pain management and end of life care in the... view more... (2001-03-08)
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)
