Experiments In Ultra-small Channels Unlock Secrets In Yeast Behavior
Using a biochemical version of a computer chip they invented, a team of researchers has solved a long-standing mystery related to the mating habits of yeast cells. Yale Researchers Identify Molecule For Detecting Parasitic Infection I
Researchers at Yale, in collaboration with NIH researchers, have identified a specific protein molecule that is used by the immune system for detection of parasitic infections, leading the way for development of future vaccines to combat these infections. Pregnancy for breast cancer survivors: Meta-analysis reveals it is saf
Women who have been treated for breast cancer can choose to become pregnant and have babies, without fears that pregnancy could put them at higher risk of dying from their cancer, according to a major new study. Student Architect Designs Disaster Relief In A Box
When it comes to disaster relief, University of Toronto master of architecture student Michael Donaldson is thinking inside the box. Donaldson's thesis project, completed on Jan. 8, lays out the concept for a deployable architectural system, including field hospitals, workshops and shelters, which uses common shipping containers as standard modular units. Haiti earthquake: Converting shipping containers into emergency housin
Resources to solve the housing crisis in Haiti may already be on hand. Some researchers have been experimenting with ways to convert shipping containers into emergency housing in the hurricane-prone Caribbean, where a surplus of the sturdy boxes often sits in port yards. Hershey Medical Center To Participate In Study Of Blood Substitute For
Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center was one of a few Level I trauma centers in the U.S. chosen to participate in a national clinical research study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PolyHeme, an oxygen-carrying blood substitute, in treating critically injured and bleeding patients. Report recommends steps to tackle hepatitis B and C
Stepped-up vaccination requirements, a boost in resources for prevention and treatment, and a public awareness campaign similar to the effort that dispelled the stigma of HIV/AIDS are needed to curb the health threats posed by hepatitis B and hepatitis C. How Fat Is Stored In Cells: Fundamental Discovery
In discovering the genes responsible for storing fat in cells, scientists have answered one of biology's most fundamental questions. Their findings could lead to new strategies for treating obesity and the diseases associated with it. [Funny] A referee has sent himself off in an English amateur league ma
Andy Wain had to abandon the Sunday league match between Peterborough North End and a Royal Mail side in the 63rd minute after throwing down his whistle and marching up to confront North End's keeper. Satellite Data Can Warn Of Famine, NASA Researchers Find
Scientists have developed a new method to anticipate food shortages brought on by drought. They created a model using data from satellite remote sensing of crop growth and food prices. Supply and demand largely dictate food prices, with greater supply leading to lower prices and less supply leading to higher prices. During a food crisis in semi-arid regions like Niger, food shortages are often brought on when lack of rainfall significantly reduces the amount of grain farmers are able to grow.
