Young teens really are shortsighted, but don't blame impulsivity
According to popular stereotype, young teenagers are shortsighted, leaving them prone to poor judgment and risky decision-making when it comes to issues like taking drugs and having sex. view more (2009-02-06)
Pendulums, predators and prey: The ecology of coupled oscillations
Connect one pendulum to another with a spring, and in time the motions of the two swinging levers will become coordinated. view more (2006-12-04)
Endorasoft goes beyond the limits of SMS and SIM cards of mobile phones

Conflict over rearing young shapes breeding systems
An article in the October 2006 issue of BioScience, the monthly journal of the American Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS), describes evidence that conflict between male and female shorebirds over which member of a breeding pair will raise their young has had a profound influence on the evolution of breeding systems in these birds. view more (2006-10-03)
Stem cell identity in culture may strongly depend on the cellular microenvironment
Identification, isolation and large scale culture of stem cells for potential medical applications is a major challenge in cell biology. view more (2007-04-25)
Study predicts an uncertain future for forests
The composition of some of our nation's forests may be quite different 200 to 400 years from today according to a recent study at the University of Illinois. view more (2009-09-16)
An innovative solution to the problem of traffic congestion
A revolutionary steering mechanism for the public transport systems of the future that is safer and cheaper to install than current methods will be developed thanks to an investment of £70,000 from NESTA (the National Endowment for Science, Technology & the Arts), the organisation that supports UK innovation and creativity.... view more...

UCSD discovery allows scientists for the first time to experimentally annotate genomes
Over the last 20 years, the sequencing of the human genome, along with related organisms, has represented one of the largest scientific endeavors in the history of mankind. view more (2009-11-10)
A clearer view on biology
The European Molecular Biology Laboratory [EMBL] has developed a new computational tool that makes images obtained with cutting-edge microscopes even sharper. view more (2007-03-06)
Soap, DNA and semiconductors
How can studying soap lead to better methods for transporting drugs around the body? Where’s the link between semiconductors and DNA and how can statistical physics reveal how ecosystems evolve? Find out at the Institute of Physics Condensed Matter and Materials Physics (CMMP) Conference being held at the University of Bristol between 18 and... view more... (2000-12-13)
Towards Intelligent Assistants
DFG Priority Programme, Design and Design Methodology of Embedded Systems, submits final report Be it telephones, navigation systems, video games, or printers - it is the electronics that increasingly decide the success of a product. Electronic devices should be able to communicate with one another and be small and inexpensive. Intelligent... view more... (2004-06-08)
College science success linked to math and same-subject preparation
Researchers at Harvard University and the University of Virginia have found that high school coursework in one of the sciences generally does not predict better college performance in other scientific disciplines. view more (2007-07-27)
Interoperable electronic tolling for Europe's roads
Imagine driving from Sweden to Spain and never having to stop to pay a toll. That scenario could soon become a reality thanks in part to the work of PISTA, which has validated a new European standard for interoperable electronic fee collection (EFC) systems. view more (2004-11-02)
Forsyth scientists discover early key to regeneration
Science may be one step closer to understanding how a limb can be grown or a spinal cord can be repaired. Scientists at The Forsyth Institute have discovered that some cells have to die for regeneration to occur. view more (2006-12-13)
Plant genes identified that can form basis for crops better adapted to environmental conditions
Roots are crucial for the development of strong, healthy crops. But until recently, exactly which genes are involved in the development of roots was still a mystery. view more (2005-10-26)
Mars Explorers Wanted - No Experience Necessary
The University of Kent's Electronics Department is offering school pupils an opportunity to learn about robotics and the design of intelligent systems in a three-day residential summer school to be held from 2-4 August. Walking with Robots will bring together 80 young people on the Canterbury campus to meet and learn from leaders of the robotics... view more... (2003-05-13)
Automatic Transport Systems Need Different Approach
The way in which automatic transport systems are currently designed, is out of date. That is one of the conclusions of PhD student Corné Versteegt, who will defend his thesis on 15 December at TU Delft. This is important information for the transport sector, which will become more automated in the future. view more (2004-12-15)
Magnetorheological fluids set to revolutionise dynamic vehicle suspension systems
Magnetorheological (MR) fluids are smart materials whose flow/viscosity properties can be modified by applying an electric field. view more (2005-11-30)
CAUTION IS NEEDED IN COMMERCIAL PARTNERSHIPS IN CARE MANAGEMENT
Thomas Bodenheimer, Clinical Professor at the Department of Family and Community Medicine, University of California at San Francisco, School of Medicine argues that commercial disease management programmes may take needed money away from actual caregiving in order to enhance companies? profits. Both the American and British papers conclude that... view more... (2000-02-22)
EU supports companies in saving electricity
Companies could lower their electricity costs for Motor Driven Systems by up to 30 per cent. Many of the measures necessary to do so are profitable in less than three years. This has been shown by studies of the Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research ISI, Karlsruhe. The EU Commission now wishes to support interested companies in... view more...
