Journal of Alzheimer's Disease is devoted to metal ions and neurodegenerative diseases
The recent issue of the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease (Volume 8, Issue 2) published by IOS Press is devoted to "Metal Ions and Neurodegenerative Diseases" and presents a collection of important papers dedicated to uncovering the role of various metals in human neurophysiology and neurodegenerative disorders. view more (2006-01-13)
Tiny bubbles a storehouse of knowledge
Fluid inclusions - tiny bubbles of fluid or vapor trapped inside rock as it forms - are clues to the location of ores and even petroleum; and they are time capsules that contain insights on the power of volcanoes and hints of life in the universe. view more (2005-10-13)
Yale study: Not enough metals in earth to meet global demand
Researchers studying supplies of copper, zinc and other metals have determined that these finite resources, even if recycled, may not meet the needs of the global population forever, according to a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. view more (2006-01-26)
Nanowires can detect molecular signs of cancer, scientists find
Harvard University researchers have found that molecular markers indicating the presence of cancer in the body are readily detected in blood scanned by special arrays of silicon nanowires - even when these cancer markers constitute only one hundred-billionth of the protein present in a drop of blood. view more (2005-09-26)
Water and Nanoelectronics Will Mix to Create Ultra-Dense Memory Storage Devices, Researchers Say
Excessive moisture can typically wreak havoc on electronic devices, but now researchers have demonstrated that a little water can help create ultra-dense storage systems for computers and electronics. view more (2006-04-28)
Remarkable new clothing may someday power your iPod
Nanotechnology researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology are developing a shirt that harvests energy from the wearer's physical motion and converts it into electricity for powering small electronic devices worn by soldiers in the field, hikers and other users. view more (2008-02-14)
New microchip design could be the key to expanding mobile phone memory
Mobile phones could one day have the memory capacity of a desktop computer thanks to a microchip that mimics the functioning of the brain, scientists report today (9 September) in the journal Science. view more (2005-09-09)
Clues to African archaeology found in lead isotopes
Microscopic specs of lead are offering clues about the enormous cultural changes that swept across northern Africa a thousand years ago. view more (2006-03-27)

Copper circuits help brain function — could tweaking the circuits make us smarter?
The flow of copper in the brain has a previously unrecognized role in cell death, learning and memory. view more (2006-09-26)
Growing glowing nanowires to light up the nanoworld
The nano world is getting brighter. Nanowires made of semiconductor materials are being used to make prototype lasers and light-emitting diodes with emission apertures roughly 100 nm in diameter-about 50 times narrower than conventional counterparts. view more (2006-05-26)
Nanowire arrays can detect signals along individual neurons
Opening a whole new interface between nanotechnology and neuroscience, scientists at Harvard University have used slender silicon nanowires to detect, stimulate, and inhibit nerve signals along the axons and dendrites of live mammalian neurons. view more (2006-08-25)
Superconducting nanowires show ability to measure magnetic fields
By using DNA molecules as scaffolds, scientists have created superconducting nanodevices that demonstrate a new type of quantum interference and could be used to measure magnetic fields and map regions of superconductivity. view more (2005-06-16)
The secret to long life
What controls lifespan? An intriguing new twist is emerging from the work of Professor Heinz Osiewacz (Frankfurt) using a short-lived fungus. He has discovered that when there is a mutation in the gene, Grisea, that controls copper uptake into cells, the fungus can live 60% longer than their normal wild-types. Why is this? Professor Osiewacz... view more... (2001-04-04)
A giant step toward tiny functional nanowires
Carving a telephone pole is easy if you have the right tools, say a power saw and some large chisels. And with some much tinier tools you could even carve a design into a paper clip if you wanted to. But shrink your sights down to the nanoscale, to a nanowire that is 1,000 times smaller than the diameter of a paper clip, and you find there are no... view more... (2005-07-01)
4,000 Year Old Archer With Golden Earrings
The richest Early Bronze Age burial in Britain has been found by astonished archaeologists. The grave of a mature man was found near Amesbury, Wiltshire and contains far more objects than any other burial of this date, about 2,300 BC. He has been identified as an archer on the basis of stone arrow heads and stone wristguards that protected the arm... view more... (2002-05-15)
Archaeologists to establish true value of Roman silver coins
An archaeologist at the University of Liverpool is examining more than 1,000 Roman silver coins from museums around the world in order to establish their true economic value. view more (2006-03-03)
