Brain drain or scientific diaspora?
The report of a collegial expertise review of the scientific diasporas has just been published by the publications division of the Institut de recherche pour le développement. Commissioned from the IRD by the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs and coordinated by Rémi Barré (CNAM), Jean-Baptiste Meyer (IRD), Valeria Hernandez... view more... (2003-12-09)
Features of early Martian environment and presence of water drive search for life forms
olar energy and winds, collisions with asteroids and comets, and changing magnetic fields have all altered the environment of Mars, a planet that may have been able to support life during its history. view more (2009-04-17)
Penn Researchers Unlock Molecular Origin of Blood Stem Cells
A research team led by Nancy Speck, PhD, Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, has identified the location and developmental timeline in which a majority of bone marrow stem cells form in the mouse embryo. view more (2009-01-12)
Genes in rheumatoid arthritis
A paper published this week in the open access journal PLoS Medicine provides strong evidence that one specific part of the genome is associated with rheumatoid arthritis. view more (2007-09-18)
ESA scientist discovers a way to shortlist stars that might have planets
Markus Landgraf of the European Space Agency and colleagues (*) have found the first direct evidence that a bright disc of dust surrounds our Solar System, starting beyond the orbit of Saturn. Remarkably, their discovery gives astronomers a way to determine which other stars in the Galaxy are most likely to harbour planets and allows mission... view more... (2002-02-15)
Mathematical model for the vibrato
As her PhD defended at the Public University of Navarre, telecommunications engineer Ixone Arroabarren has analysed the vibrato, one of the most important tools of classical singers. The study applies both to the teaching of singing in music as well as to the medical treatment of voice pathologies. It has put forward a mathematical model for the... view more... (2004-08-18)
Creation of a magnetic field in a turbulent fluid
Understanding the origin and behavior of the magnetic fields of planets and stars is the goal of research being carried out by many teams from all over the world. view more (2007-03-12)
Cancer in Sweden--three national studies show the importance of where people grow up
Scientists at the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden, have compared the incidence of cancer in first- and second-generation immigrants in Sweden. The results clearly indicate that life-style factors during childhood and adolescence have a decisive impact on the risk of contracting cancer later in life. The findings are presented in three scientific... view more... (2002-04-24)
Advanced life support in ambulances doesn't benefit trauma patients
New research from the Ontario Prehospital Advanced Life Support (OPALS) project shows there is no benefit - and perhaps harm - to providing advanced life support to patients with trauma injuries prior to transport to hospital. view more (2008-04-22)
Tropical storms endure over wet land, fizzle over dry
If it has already rained, it's going to continue to pour, according to a Purdue University study of how ocean-origin storms behave when they come ashore. view more (2009-08-27)
Comet dust brought back to Earth: paving the way for Rosetta
Scientists around the world eagerly await the arrival of sample particles from Comet Wild 2, which are being brought back to Earth by the US Stardust spacecraft on 15 January this year. view more (2006-01-13)
University of Kent researchers tackle blood diseases
Researchers at the University of Kent have received grants totalling more than £160,000 to help the development of an NHS antenatal and neonatal screening programme set up to help combat two inherited medical conditions, sickle cell disease and thalassaemia, which carry a reduced life expectancy and require lifelong treatment. An estimated... view more... (2002-06-17)
Origins of Life
The origin of life lies in unique ocean reefs, and scientists from the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science have developed an approach to help investigate them better. view more (2006-11-20)
Brown-led study rearranges some branches on animal tree of life
A study led by Brown University biologist Casey Dunn uses new genomics tools to answer old questions about animal evolution. The study is the most comprehensive animal phylogenomic research project to date, involving 40 million base pairs of new DNA data taken from 29 animal species. view more (2008-03-06)
Wild gorillas carriers of a SIV virus close to the AIDS virus
In 2005, 40.3 million people in the world, including 25.8 million in Sub-Saharan Africa, were living with HIV. The question of the origin of HIV-1, responsible for the AIDS pandemic, has been stimulating the scientific community for many years. view more (2006-11-14)
Pandemic flu can infect cells deep in the lungs, says new research
Pandemic swine flu can infect cells deeper in the lungs than seasonal flu can, according to a new study published today in Nature Biotechnology. view more (2009-09-10)
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 being very short for such an important... view more...

Selecting life: Scientists find new way to search for origin of life
Over the last half century, researchers have found that mineral surfaces may have played critical roles organizing, or activating, molecules that would become essential ingredients to all life-such as amino acids (the building blocks of proteins) and nucleic acids (the essence of DNA). But which of the countless possible combinations of... view more... (2006-11-10)
Archaeology experts to speak at BA Festival of Science
Three eminent archaeologists from the University of Reading's top-rated Archaeology Department will be among some 400 of the UK's leading scientists appearing at his year's BA Festival of Science.
