The team, led by Chi-Sang Poon, a research scientist at the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology (HST), suggests that this innate ability to…
It is well established that the images the observer sees are divided in half as they are sent to the two hemispheres of the brain. When a person looks at the…
This new mechanism involves molecules known to play a role in numerous mechanisms of cell functioning, but not hitherto in conduction of excitation.To…
Based on computer vision and motion control, the automated microrobotic system is capable of immobilizing a large number of zebrafish embryos into a regular…

The researchers of the IRIBHM have prooved, by the use of these genetically-modified mice, that those abnormalities of B lymphocytes development and function…
Humans have many more copies of this gene than any of their ape relatives, the study found, and they use the copies to flood their mouths with amylase, an…
The probe's main ingredient is a molecule that labels active proteases – protein-destroying enzymes – that run amok in cancerous cells. The molecule is…
