First Laboratory Experiment to Accurately Model Stellar Jets Explains Mysterious 'Knots'
Some of the most breathtaking objects in the cosmos are the jets of matter streaming out of stars, but astrophysicists have long been at a loss to explain how these jets achieve their varied shapes. Now, laboratory research detailed in the current issue of Astrophysical Review Letters shows how magnetic forces shape these stellar jets. view more (2009-02-10)
NYU biologists identify gene that coordinates two cellular processes
A team of biologists at New York University's Center for Comparative Functional Genomics has uncovered a dual role for the gene mel-28. The gene plays a part in ensuring that chromosomes are divided properly during cell division and it is required for nuclear envelope function. view more (2006-09-06)
Limping rat provides sciatica insights
A newly developed animal model for the painful nerve condition known as sciatica should help researchers diagnose and treat it, according to Duke University bioengineers and surgeons. view more (2009-04-30)
Pollution, everyday allergens, may be sources of laryngitis
Everyday exposure to environmental tobacco smoke, allergens, and air pollution may be the root of chronic cases of laryngitis, says new research presented at the 2008 American Academy of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery Foundation (AAO-HNSF) Annual Meeting & OTO EXPO in Chicago, IL. view more (2008-09-22)
NASA uses satellite to unearth innovation in crop forecasting
Soil moisture is essential for seeds to germinate and for crops to grow. But record droughts and scorching temperatures in certain parts of the globe in recent years have caused soil to dry up, crippling crop production. view more (2009-05-27)
Cornell researchers clone aluminum-tolerance gene in sorghum, promising boost to crop yields in developing world
When soils are too acidic, aluminum that is locked up in clay minerals dissolves into the soil as toxic, electrically charged particles called ions, making it hard for most plants to grow. In fact, aluminum toxicity in acidic soils limits crop production in as much as half the world's arable land, mostly in developing countries in Africa, Asia and... view more... (2007-08-28)
Worms hold clue to link between cancer and ageing in humans
A type of protein linked to cancer prevention in humans may also play a role in ageing, according to findings published in the journal Science tomorrow. view more (2006-06-02)
Executable biology -- Computer science sheds light on animal development
By applying the techniques of computer engineering to a mechanistic diagram describing the development of the Nematode C. elegans, a group of researchers in Switzerland has been able to tease out what laboratory experiments have not - how and when the crucial cross-talk between cellular signaling pathways takes place in order to determine the... view more...

How new diseases from insects hit people like the plague
Scientists have traced the first steps in the way some new diseases emerge, and how harmless bacteria living in insects become dangerous disease-causing bugs which can affect humans, like the plague or anthrax. Researchers from the University of Bath are presenting their results today (Wednesday, 08 September 2004) at the Society for General... view more... (2004-08-23)
Mayo researchers discover HIV dependence on a human protein
Mayo Clinic virologists have discovered that a specific human protein is essential for HIV to integrate into the human genome. view more (2006-09-08)
Controlling parasite burdens in wild red grouse Lagopus lagopus scoticus through the indirect application of anthelmintic
In an article published today in issue 6 of the Journal of Applied Ecology, Dave Newborn of The Game Conservancy Trust explains the practical implications of a four-year heather moorland experiment that aimed to reduce the impact of parasitic worms on wild red grouse populations. view more (2002-11-26)
Urban Trees Enhance Water Infiltration
Global land use patterns and increasing pressures on water resources demand creative urban stormwater management. view more (2008-11-20)
Scientists isolate chemical in curry that may help immune system clear plaques found in Alzheimer's
Researchers isolated bisdemethoxycurcumin, the active ingredient of curcuminoids - a natural substance found in turmeric root - that may help boost the immune system in clearing amyloid beta, a peptide that forms the plaques found in Alzheimer's disease. view more (2007-07-17)
Endosome-mediated signaling in plants
In a paper that will be published online in advance of its July 1st publication date, Drs. Niko Geldner, Joanne Chory and colleagues (The Salk Institute and HHMI) demonstrate that endosomes can function as signaling platforms in plants, as well as in animals. view more (2007-06-19)
Managing Douglas-fir forests for diversity
Creating diverse forests for multiple uses is important to natural resource managers and landowners. view more (2009-05-11)
Backache beaten by good vibrations..?
University of Manchester researchers are recruiting people with backache caused by nerve root pain-commonly known as sciatica-in the first ever study to discover if therapeutic ultrasound can help their condition. view more (2006-11-03)
Looking deep in Earth, researchers see upwellings that could be root of volcanic islands
Deep within Earth, researchers are finding hints of exotic materials and behaviors unrivaled anywhere else on the planet. Now a team of researchers is making connections between the dynamic activities deep inside Earth and geologic features at its surface. view more (2005-06-01)
Researchers find that later-life diseases resulting from fetal and infant toxicity have common immune pattern
A Cornell researcher and his wife have conducted the first comprehensive review of later-life diseases that develop in people who were exposed to environmental toxins or drugs either in the womb or as infants. They have found that most of the diseases have two things in common: They involve an imbalanced immune system and exaggerated inflammatory... view more... (2007-05-03)
Research project into Borna Disease Virus
Research being conducted at the University of Northumbria at Newcastle aims to throw light on a virus which could be at the root of many psychological illnesses. view more (1999-07-20)
Professor hopes to help high elevation pines grow
Thread-like fungi that grow in soils at high elevations may play an important role in restoring whitebark and limber pine forests in Canada. view more (2009-07-20)
