A research team led by Prof. Claude Perreault, Université de Montréal, is announcing a major discovery in Genomics. This will generate a fundamental impact on…
Once a patient undergoes surgery for the removal of their bladder and lymph nodes — the standard treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer — researchers…
So far, it has been assumed that specific geological bodies are formed at the strike of lightning only if the lightning hits sedimentary rock or a cliff….
The first Metazoa animals possessed a modular structure, consisting of several identical individuals combined into a colony. The colony appeared due to…
Research by scientists at UCL (University College London) has clearly demonstrated for the first time the structure and function of a gene crucial to the…
Building structures as tiny as a few nanometers is a major problem with today's technology. This is an important hurdle, because really tiny things can be…
A protein that causes coral to glow is helping researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine to light up brain cells that are critical for the…
The age-old mystery was unlocked thanks to some novel bacteria plucked from the North Norfolk coast.Prof Andrew Johnston and his team at UEA isolated this…

A team of scientists that had already shown that emperor penguins who are free ranging in their colony spend about 50 percent of their time in dense huddles…
A nucleic acid, 2-5AN6B inhibited HIV replication in white blood cells from a group of 18 HIV infected patients by up to 80 percent, regardless of the…
Dawei Hong, an assistant professor of computer science, Joseph Martin, a professor of biology, and William Saidel, an associate professor of biology, are…
Ohio State University chemists and their colleagues in Germany used a special technique to watch strands of DNA in the laboratory sustain damage in real time. They observed the most common chemical reaction among a family of reactions on the DNA molecule that are linked to sunburn, and discovered that this key reaction happens with astounding speed — in less than one picosecond, or one millionth of one millionth of a second….
The finding adds a new layer of complexity to the quest to understand the causes of childhood brain cancers, according to senior author David H. Gutmann, M.D.,…
