A single water molecule acting as gate keeper
How do the bonds cells form with their environments rupture? What enables some cells to migrate? It is known since quite a while that cells can have complex mechanical interactions with their environments. Not only the biochemical but also the physical properties of their environment can thus have... view more (2004-11-12)

Research leading to tools for managing bovine respiratory disease complex
Bovine respiratory disease complex has multiple causes. It's sometimes hard to classify and predict. It also costs the beef industry more than any other disease -- an estimated $690 million in 2006, according to one report.   view more (2008-02-28)

Help for bleeding hearts: new research links a third protein to blood-clotting disorders

Does life exist on other planets?
Recent research argues that an atmosphere rich in oxygen is the most likely source of energy for complex life to exist anywhere in the Universe, thereby limiting the number of places life may exist.   view more (2005-06-20)

Aiding decision making for baby Charlotte and baby Luke (p 1462)
An editorial in this week's issue of THE LANCET discusses the complex issues surrounding decisions to withhold medical treatment for profoundly ill patients, recently highlighted by the UK cases of 11-month-old Charlotte Wyatt and 9-month-old Luke Winston-Jones.   view more (2004-10-20)

Simple explanation for complex pattern of feather development
Biologists testing a mathematical model of the mechanism birds use to control the growth of complex feathers found that plumed feather structures involve the coordination of at least two genes that activate and that inhibit barb growth.   view more (2005-08-16)

Different but equal: Settling the dosage compensation debate
Independent research papers from Dr. Peter Becker (Munich, Germany) and Dr. Mitzi Kuroda (Boston, MA) in the October 1 issue of Genes & Development delineate the mechanism of X-chromosome dosage compensation in Drosophila.   view more (2005-10-03)

Novel enzyme inhibitor paves way for new cancer drug
Combining natural organic atoms with metal complexes, scientists at The Wistar Institute have developed a new type of enzyme inhibitor capable of blocking a biochemical pathway that plays a key role in cancer development.   view more (2008-05-16)

Scientists Create the First Synthetic Nanoscale Fractal Molecule
From snowflakes to the leaves on a tree, objects in nature are made of irregular molecules called fractals. Scientists now have created and captured an image of the largest man-made fractal molecule at the nanoscale.   view more (2006-05-12)

eSPACE turns the table on traditional sales techniques
Greater customer satisfaction and increased sales could result from a research initiative to improve interaction between buyers and sellers. Drawing on its studies of existing sales practice and current research into information design and display technology the eSPACE (electronic SPACE) team has... view more (2003-05-29)

Astrophysicists find fractal image of Sun's 'Storm Season' imprinted on Solar Wind
Plasma astrophysicists at the University of Warwick have found that key information about the Sun's 'storm season' is being broadcast across the solar system in a fractal snapshot imprinted in the solar wind.   view more (2007-05-29)

The Human Brain: Detective of auditory and visual change
The human brain is capable of detecting the slightest visual and auditory changes. Whether it is the flash of a student's hand into the air or the faintest miscue of a flutist, the brain instantaneously and effortlessly perceives changes in our environment.   view more (2008-01-21)

Unusual meteorite unlocks treasure trove of solar system secrets
An unusual meteorite that fell on a frozen lake in Canada five years ago has led a Florida State University geochemist to a breakthrough in understanding the origin of the chemical elements that make up our solar system.   view more (2005-09-28)

Synchrotron Sheds Light On Bacteria's Solar Cell
Researchers based at the University of Glasgow, using X-ray data collected at the Synchrotron Radiation Source (SRS) at CCLRC Daresbury Laboratory, have made a major advance in our understanding of the process by which sunlight is converted to food energy, without which life on earth could not... view more (2003-12-12)

A molecular basis for selective therapeutic intervention in Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer's disease, a complex neurological disorder, has as one of its hallmarks the presence of senile plaques in the brains of affected individuals.   view more (2005-10-07)

New mathematical method allows scientists to better predict the effects of global warming
Scientists may soon have a better idea of the potential effects of global warming thanks to the work of Tony O’Hagan, Professor of Statistics at the University of Sheffield. Scientists already know that global warming will have consequences for the earth but are unsure how mild or severe... view more (2002-09-12)

Polluted prey causes wild birds to change their tune
Considerable attention has been paid to the effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals in aquatic environments, but rather less attention has been given to routes of contamination on land.   view more (2008-02-27)

Novel hydrogel systems for dentin regeneration
Dental caries, or tooth decay, continues to be the most prevalent infectious disease in the world, presenting significant public health challenges and socio-economic consequences.   view more (2008-07-07)

University Jaume I researchers at work on EU project to improve video game realism
A group of researchers from the Department of Computer Languages and Systems at the Universitat Jaume I is taking part in a project to improve realism in video games. The goal is to design software that makes the task of game programmers easier so that they can create more credible environments... view more (2004-12-13)

Geologists Find New Origins of Appalachian Mountains
Geologists have developed a new theory to explain how and when the Appalachian Mountain range was created. Their research redraws the map of the planet from 420 million years ago.   view more (2006-11-17)

How Safe Are Your Foundations?
Catastrophic failure of the foundations of a large structure such as an oil drilling or exploration platform are costly in terms of wasted time, inconvenience, environmental damage or monetary value, but add to this the potential cost of the loss of human life and the confidence of the public in... view more (2004-05-13)

UU Research Pushing Back the Frontiers of Space
Cutting edge research at the University of Ulster into how to make complex computers and communications systems manage themselves could power the next generation of US space probes, it was revealed today.   view more (2004-12-01)

Place of death shifting for children with complex chronic conditions
It is becoming more common for children with complex chronic conditions to die in their home than in a hospital, although black and Hispanic children with these conditions are less likely to die in their home.   view more (2007-06-27)

No disease in the desert
Camels are known for their amazing ability to survive in arid conditions, but new research shows that their immune response may also be helping them to stay strong. Their innate abilities could soon alter the way that human diseases are fought. Biologists are always on the lookout for new methods... view more (2001-12-04)
