Awards for young life sciences researchers
Three junior scientists have earned the Hugo Geiger Prize for their thesis papers this year: Frank Meinecke dealt with the separation of neural signals. Jochen Schwenk identified proteins in a fungus whereas Michaela Harz worked on a new biochemical sensor. view more (2004-11-09)
UGA researchers propose model for disorders caused by improper transmission of chromosomes
Parents of healthy newborns often remark on the miracle of life. The joining of egg and sperm to create such delightful creatures can seem dazzlingly beautiful if the chromosome information from each parent has been translated properly into the embryo and newborn. view more (2009-08-17)
University of Minnesota researchers discover breakthrough method for chemical separations
A team of researchers, led by chemical engineering and materials science professor Michael Tsapatsis in the University of Minnesota's Institute of Technology, have developed a more energy-efficient method of chemical separations that could revolutionize processes in the petrochemical and biofuels industries. view more (2009-08-04)
Decline of house sparrows due to lack of overwinter food
The decline of the house sparrow in rural areas of Britain over the past two decades has possible occurred because of reduced food supplies, leading to localised extinctions, according to a report by Oxford zoologists published tomorrow [29 August 2002] in Nature. view more (2002-08-28)
War-time evacuation puts children at risk
Young children who are evacuated from their home during a war can experience long term effects on their psychological well-being that are related to this temporary separation. view more (2004-08-24)
Brain power goes green
Our brains, it turns out, are eco-friendly. A study published in Science and reviewed by F1000 Biology members Venkatesh Murthy and Jakob Sorensen reveals that our brains have the amazing ability to be energy efficient. view more (2009-10-15)
Study finds particles, molecules prefer not to mix
In the world of small things, shape, order and orientation are surprisingly important, according to findings from a new study by chemists at Washington University in St. Louis. view more (2009-05-05)
Chromosome glue repairs damaged DNA
When a strand of DNA breaks in the body's cells, it normally does not take long until it has been repaired. Now researchers at the Swedish medical university Karolinska Institutet have discovered a new mechanism that helps to explain how the cell performs these repairs. The results are presented in Science. view more (2007-07-16)
Rapid heating prepares energy-saving zeolite for greater role in industrial separations
Thin-film zeolite membranes with tiny, molecule-sized pores are one step closer to replacing the energy-intensive processes now used in industrial separations, a group of academic researchers is reporting. view more (2009-08-04)
Safe Heating of Explosive Gases
The Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH (IMM) has developed the micro structured gas heater MSGH for combustible or explosive media. A clear separation of the space containing the medium from the heating elements allows safe heating and overheating of process gases, gas mixtures or gas/vapour mixtures. The MSGH has 50 cubic centimetres of... view more... (2004-06-23)
World Wide Web Consortium Publishes XForms 1.0 as a W3C Candidate Recommendation
W3C`s Next-generation Forms Technology Ready for Implementors After Nearly 10 Years, It`s Time to Upgrade Forms on the Web When HTML Forms were introduced to the Web in 1993, they provided a means to gather information and perform transactions. The structure of forms served the needs of many users at that time, as well as the devices used to... view more... (2002-11-12)
