More patients with drug-coated cardiac stents survive, avoid costly follow-up procedures
The more than ten million Americans who've received drug-eluting stents to open their blocked coronary arteries have a bright future, according to new research from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine.   view more (2008-05-23)

Global warming predictions are overestimated, suggests study on black carbon
A detailed analysis of black carbon -- the residue of burned organic matter -- in computer climate models suggests that those models may be overestimating global warming predictions.   view more (2008-11-20)

BBSRC regrets destruction of GM crop
The crops were destroyed at the orders of the farm's trustees but BBSRC maintains that there is absolutely no scientific justification for this destruction as there was no risk of cross-pollination with:
  • organic oilseed rape, as it is not grown in the UK>
  • any of the other... view more (1999-06-07)

    Saharan dust storms sustain life in Atlantic Ocean
    Research at the University of Liverpool has found how Saharan dust storms help sustain life over extensive regions of the North Atlantic Ocean.   view more (2008-07-21)

    Gold in the realm of dwarves
    "Man has been fascinated by gold since ancient times," says a bland introduction to related scientific studies. The fact that there is still room for surprises was shown by a recent publication: Nanoparticles of the precious metal behave differently from those of its close relatives.   view more (2004-10-25)

    New evidence for organic compounds in deep space
    The mysterious spectral bands in the infrared of interstellar gas clouds in deep space originate from organic compounds. Research by the Nijmegen physicist Hans Piest confirms this. He has provided new experimental evidence for this almost 30-year-old problem in astronomy. Each molecule has... view more (2002-04-18)

    Tolerance to inhalants may be caused by changes in gene expression
    Changes in the expression of genes may be the reason why people who abuse inhalants, such as spray paint or glue, quickly develop a tolerance, biologists at The University of Texas at Austin have discovered.   view more (2007-10-18)

    University of Pennsylvania Chemists Reinvent the Science and Industry of Making Plastics
    Chemists at the University of Pennsylvania have created a new process for free radical polymerization, the chemical reaction responsible for creating an enormous array of everyday plastic products, from Styrofoam cups to PVC tubing to car parts.   view more (2006-10-13)

    Researcher discovers hybrid speciation in the Sierra Nevada
    University of Nevada, Reno researcher Matthew Forister is among a group of scientists that have documented an unusual type of speciation in the Sierra Nevada, including a hybrid species of butterfly that can trace its lineage as far back as almost a half a million years ago.   view more (2007-01-29)

    Follow the nitrogen to extraterrestrial life
    The great search for extraterrestrial life has focused on water at the expense of a crucial element, say geobiologists at the University of Southern California.   view more (2006-05-05)

    Long-term anti-clotting therapy sweetens stenting outcomes in diabetic patients
    A study showing that diabetic patients who are treated with long-term anti-clotting therapy are less likely to have a heart attack or die more than a year after stenting has been named among the best research papers presented at the 30th Annual Scientific Sessions of the Society for Cardiovascular... view more (2007-05-18)

    Increased carbon dioxide in atmosphere linked to decreased soil organic matter
    A recent study at the University of Illinois created a bit of a mystery for soil scientist Michelle Wander - increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was expected to increase plant growth, increase plant biomass and ultimately beef up the organic matter in the soil -- but it didn't.   view more (2008-03-12)

    Through the eye of the needle
    Doctors performing minimally invasive surgery cannot directly observe their work. Magnetic resonance imaging gives them an internal view of the patient's body, but metal surgical instruments can cause interference. Fiber-reinforced plastics offer a viable alternative. Thanks to advances in medical... view more (2004-02-03)

    New Delft material concept for aircraft wings could save billions
    Building aircraft wings with a special aluminium fibre combination makes them nearly immune to metal fatigue.   view more (2007-09-27)

    Leading experts in organic solar cells say the field is being damaged by questionable reports
    In the latest issue of Elsevier's Materials Today the leading magazine for researchers in areas of advanced materials science, Dr. Gilles Dennler of Konarka Austria GmbH and twenty other experts warn that an unseemly race to report organic solar cells (OSCs) with world record efficiencies is... view more (2007-10-16)

    More recycling on the farm could reduce environmental problems
    Growing environmental problems resulting from farming argue for a shift toward practices that use lower inputs of pesticides and energy and more recycling of energy and materials.   view more (2007-05-01)

    Cell splits water via sunlight to produce hydrogen
    Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a unique photocatalytic cell that splits water to produce hydrogen and oxygen in water using sunlight and the power of a nanostructured catalyst.   view more (2007-05-03)

    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)

    More biogas, less sludge
    Germany has more than 10,000 sewage plants, using costly processes to treat household, industrial and restaurant waste water. The treated water is discharged back into river and lake systems. What remains is an organic / inorganic mixture of sludge. The issue is how to dispose of this residue. Up... view more (2002-11-14)

    NMSU/Wake Forest solar breakthrough will help spur viability of alternative energy
    Imagine being able to paint your roof with enough alternative energy to heat and cool your home. What if soldiers in the field could carry an energy source in a roll of plastic wrap in their backpacks?   view more (2005-10-10)

    When a good nanoparticle goes bad
    Researchers at Cornell University recently made a major breakthrough when they invented a method to test and demonstrate a long-held hypothesis that some very, very small metal particles work much better than others in various chemical processes such as converting chemical energy to electricity in... view more (2008-11-11)

    Bacterium takes a shine to metals
    Exposed metal surfaces are highly vulnerable to corrosion, but paint or other protective coatings can interfere with some uses, as well as add significant costs.   view more (2006-06-19)

    How Life Originated In Space
    Life originated on the Earth more than 3.5 billion years ago. However, the scientists are still disputing over the possible sources of the life origin. The matter is that life on our planet evolved from the molecular level to the level of bacteria organisms within 0.5 - 1 billion years, this period... view more (2002-04-12)

    Flexible electronics advance boosts performance, manufacturing
    Flexible electronics made with organic, or carbon-based, transistors could enable technologies such as low-cost sensors on product packaging and ''electronic paper'' displays as thin and floppy as a placemat.   view more (2006-12-14)
