NYU physicists find way to explore microscopic systems through holographic video
Physicists at New York University have developed a technique to record three-dimensional movies of microscopic systems, such as biological molecules, through holographic video. view more (2009-07-21)
Playing, and even watching, sports improves brain function
Being an athlete or merely a fan improves language skills when it comes to discussing their sport because parts of the brain usually involved in playing sports are instead used to understand sport language, new research at the University of Chicago shows. view more (2008-09-02)
Free will takes flight: how our brains respond to an approaching menace
Wellcome Trust scientists have identified for the first time how our brain's response changes the closer a threat gets. Using a "Pac Man"-like computer game where a volunteer is pursued by an artificial predator, the researchers showed that the fear response moves from the strategic areas of the brain towards more reactive responses as... view more...

ROV discovers Antarctic seafloor fauna
Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV) remain an efficient technology to uncover the secrets of Antarctic seafloor fauna. As a precursor to the International Polar Year 2007/2008, the current Polarstern expedition conducted by the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine research releases short seafloor video clips taken by ROV only a few hours... view more...

Just the expectation of a mirthful laughter experience boosts endorphins 27 percent, HGH 87 percent
There's no doubt that laughter feels good, but is there real neurophysiology behind it and what can you do about it? view more (2006-04-03)
Cornell researchers test carbon fiber to make tiny, cheap video displays
Engineers who develop microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) like to make their tiny machines out of silicon because it is cheap, plentiful and can be worked on with the tools already developed for making microelectronic circuits. There is just one problem: Silicon breaks too easily. view more (2006-08-23)
Forest ecologist sees climate consequences
Many people worry about the link between rising bark-beetle infestations and an increase in western wildfires. But Dr. Susan Prichard, a Research Scientist at the University of Washington, adds another concern: what happens after the fires go out? view more (2009-09-15)
Parents stricter with older kids to set example: game theory study
Parents are more likely to punish their teen's risky behavior when there are younger kids in the family, driven by a desire to set a strict example for these siblings, says new game theory research from the University of Maryland, Duke University and The Johns Hopkins University. view more (2008-04-18)
University of Leicester carries out the first national survey of drug use in football
The University of Leicester Centre for Research into Sport and Society has recently, with the cooperation of the Professional Footballers Association (PFA), completed the first ever survey of drug use in English football. Using the PFA database questionnaires were sent to all 2863 player members of whom 708, almost 25%, have so far replied. The... view more... (2003-05-22)

Caltech researchers train computers to analyze fruit-fly behavior
Scientists at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have trained computers to automatically analyze aggression and courtship in fruit flies, opening the way for researchers to perform large-scale, high-throughput screens for genes that control these innate behaviors. view more (2009-04-09)
YouTube videos yield clues to brain injury symptom
Brain injury researchers at the University of Kentucky have spent hundreds of hours watching YouTube videos of people getting smacked, punched and knocked in the head during sporting events and recreational activities. But those researchers weren't goofing off on the Internet; they were doing hard science. view more (2009-09-03)

The roots of civilization trace back to ... roots
About five to seven million years ago, when the lineage of humans and chimpanzees split, edible root plants similar to rutabagas and turnips may have been one of the reasons. view more (2005-09-19)
Thieving whale caught on video gives rare clues about hunting strategy, sound production
For decades scientists have been intrigued by the variety of sounds emitted by sperm whales, partly due to a popular theory that suggests that the sounds might contain information about the animals' size. view more (2009-05-22)
DNA computing targets West Nile Virus, other deadly diseases

Friendly young people in particular drink under pressure
Men, extrovert people and those with positive expectations regarding alcohol use drink more than others, says Dutch psychologist Sander Bot. The amount a young person drinks is largely determined by how much others in the group drink. view more (2007-07-13)
NRC team uses new Quantum Technology to control molecules
A research team at the National Research Council Canada (Ottawa) has developed a new quantum technology which uses laser pulses to control quantum processes. view more (2006-10-13)
First MPEG-21 application online
The research group Multimedia Lab of the Ghent University (Belgium) succeeded in putting the first MPEG-21 application online. MPEG-21 technology is the most recently developed technology for multimedia applications. After the MPEG-1, -2, -4, and MPEG-7 standards, MPEG-21 is currently considered to be one of the most promising new standard in the... view more... (2002-02-25)
