A Jekyll and Hyde of cytokines: IL-25 both promotes and limits inflammatory diseases
The same signal responsible for promoting the type of immune responses that cause asthma and allergy can also limit the type of inflammation associated with debilitating diseases like inflammatory bowel disease, arthritis and multiple sclerosis. view more (2006-04-10)
University of Pennsylvania Chemists Reinvent the Science and Industry of Making Plastics
Chemists at the University of Pennsylvania have created a new process for free radical polymerization, the chemical reaction responsible for creating an enormous array of everyday plastic products, from Styrofoam cups to PVC tubing to car parts. view more (2006-10-13)
Bumblebee house warming — it takes a village
Researchers have known that a key to the insects' success in adapting to cooler climates is their ability to maintain fairly stable body temperatures when flying to flowers. view more (2007-01-19)

In a shock finding, astronomers using CSIRO's Parkes telescope have detected a huge burst of radio energy from the distant universe that could open up a new field in astrophysics. view more (2007-09-28)
A new magnetic phenomenon may improve RAM memories and the storage capacity of hard drives
The application of 'displaced vortex states'-small magnetic circular movements of just a few thousandths of a millimetre-may accelerate the arrival of a new type of magnetic memory (MRAM) that does not disappear when a computer is switched off. view more (2006-03-03)
Carnegie Mellon's Sandstorm robot makes unprecedented 200-mile autonomous run
Carnegie Mellon University's autonomous robotic HUMMER Sandstorm drove an unprecedented 200 miles in seven hours without human guidance last week in preparation for the 2005 DARPA Grand Challenge, a 175-mile driverless desert race with a $2 million winner-take-all prize. view more (2005-07-13)
