Researchers map links between size of hippocampus and progression to Alzheimer's dementia
UCLA researchers sought to test the theory that the hippocampus - the area of the brain that processes memory - is smaller in patients with mild cognitive impairment who develop into Alzheimer's dementia, and that it is larger in patients with mild cognitive impairment who experience cognitive... view more (2006-05-09)

Pancreatic cancer vaccine halts progression of disease in some patients
A dendritic cell-based therapeutic vaccine for pancreatic cancer developed by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine has successfully stalled the disease from progressing in a handful of patients three years post-vaccination.   view more (2007-04-18)

FDG-PET Imaging Clearly Predicts Lung Cancer Patients' Response to Chemotherapy

Microbe has huge role in ocean life, carbon cycle
Researchers at Oregon State University and Diversa Corporation have discovered that the smallest free-living cell known also has the smallest genome, or genetic structure, of any independent cell-and yet it dominates life in the oceans, thrives where most other cells would die, and plays a huge... view more (2005-08-19)

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)

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,... view more (2007-08-28)
