Powerful new method allows scientists to probe gene activation
Researchers have developed a powerful new method to investigate the discrete steps necessary to turn on individual genes and examine how the process goes wrong in cancer and other diseases. The finding allows scientists to investigate the unfolding of DNA, a process required for gene activation. How does Santa do it
An advanced knowledge of electromagnetic waves, the space-time continuum, nanotechnology, genetic engineering, and computer science easily explains Santa’s abilities to deliver presents to millions of homes and children in just one night, according to professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering, Larry Silverberg, at North Carolina State University.Silverberg explains that Santa has a personal wireless connection [...] Breast-feeding Overcomes A Genetic Tendency Toward Ear Infections, Sci
Breast-feeding protects children otherwise made susceptible to ear infections by abnormalities in specific human genes, researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston have discovered. New E-waste Recycling Technology
With megatons of obsolete personal computers, old cell phones and other waste electrical and electronic equipment piling up every year, scientists in China report development of a much-needed new recycling and recovery technology for one of the most troublesome components of e-waste -- printed circuit boards (PCBs). Tool To Assess Vulnerability And Efficiency Regarding Infrastructure S
Natural disasters, accidents and the failure of aging equipment can have serious consequences for transportation networks, electrical power supply chains and telecommunications networks. Researchers have developed a computer-based tool that identifies the most important components of these critical infrastructure networks. U. Of Colorado Researcher Identifies Tracks Of Swimming Dinosaur In Wy
The tracks of a previously unknown, two-legged swimming dinosaur have been identified along the shoreline of an ancient inland sea that covered Wyoming 165 million years ago, according to a University of Colorado at Boulder graduate student. Researchers Compare Chicken, Human Genomes: Analysis Of First Avian Ge
An international research consortium has found that chickens and humans share more than half of their genes, but that their DNA sequences diverge in ways that may explain some of the important differences between birds and mammals.
