The Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen) has uncovered possible genetic origins of breast cancer that spreads to the brain, according to a…
Researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) and Carnegie Mellon University have introduced a unique micro-robotic technique to assemble the components of…
The findings, which could lead to new treatments for a disease that kills more HIV/AIDS patients than tuberculosis, appear in mBio®, the online open-access…
The study is published today in Molecular Psychiatry and may help scientists understand biological mechanisms behind some forms of intellectual impairment. The…
Researchers at the University of Bristol and University College London found that lactate – essentially lactic acid – causes cells in the brain to release more…
The EuLaViBar language vitality barometer is a tool that can be used to determine the extent to which a language is threatened with extinction. Academics from…
In the past, this was possible only at much lower temperatures, typically in the microkelvin range. The coupling of nuclei and electrons creates a new state of…
Innovative Furane-Pyrene derivatives to be used for organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been synthesized at the University of Göttingen. They show an increased efficiency of the blue emission spectra and stability during doping and de-doping in polymer films.
In a collaboration scientists from the University of Göttingen and of the University of Bielefeld developed a procedure for the production of recombinant isolated active eukaryotic full lenght C-alpha Formylglycine-Generating Enzyme (FGE) in selected eukaryotic cells for biotechnological and therapeutic uses.
Production process of wood composites combining hot air and hot steam. This reduces the production time, production line and enables the use of any current binder.
The researchers found a range of effects — positive, neutral and negative — when they sprayed the herbicide dicamba on old fields — ones that are no longer…
However, for the manufacturer, this can present real challenges, as very often these manufacturing steps can be costly and energy-demanding. Heraeus Noblelight…
In research published today in the journal Nature, CSIRO and an international team of scientists revealed global maps showing how fast and in which direction…
Researchers have found that the melanopsin pigment in the eye is potentially more sensitive to light than its more famous counterpart, rhodopsin, the pigment…
Specifically, the team used statistical mechanics and mathematical modeling to shed light on something known as epigenetic memory — how an organism can create…
The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission or TRMM satellite is managed by both NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency called JAXA. TRMM can read the…
