As anyone who as ever picked up a guitar or a tennis racket knows, precise timing is often an essential part of performing complex tasks. Now, by studying the…
Proteins are an interesting class of drugs because they demonstrate high biological activity and are highly specific in their effects. It has become possible…
The satellite transmitters emit a signal once an hour during the daytime. These signals provide the scientists with a picture of how the birds use the…
It was previously thought that microglia originated at the same time as macrophages, which are other immune cells that are thought to develop at birth. This…
This is shown in a new study done by researchers at the Hertie Institute of Clinical Brain Research (HIH, University Hospital Tübingen, University of Tübingen)…
But the real fiend is not the hairless, fanged animal purported to attack and drink the blood of livestock; it's a tiny, eight-legged creature that turns a…
Fortunately, scientists at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory and Institute of Molecular Biophysics at Florida State University and researchers at…
Dr. Shi directs the Neuroimmunology Laboratory and Flow Cytometry Core Facility at Barrow. One of his research interests is natural killer (NK) cells, a type…
A $2 million grant from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences at the National Institutes of Health and the U.S. Environmental Protection…
Antigene therapy is a promising new treatment strategy that uses a DNA-based drug to pinpoint light energy to a target gene shutting down its activity. A…
While bees are typically impressive navigators, able to wend their way home through complex landscapes after visits to flowers far removed from their nests,…
The findings suggest technologies and techniques can be developed to quickly and noninvasively test for transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, progressive…
