Student Identifies Enormous New Dinosaur
The remains of one of the largest meat-eating dinosaurs ever found have recently been recognized as representing a new species by a student working at the University of Bristol. Certain Diseases, Birth Defects May Be Linked To Failure Of Protein Re
A group of signaling proteins known as Wnt -- which help build the human body's skin, bone, muscle and other tissues -- depend on a complex delivery and recycling system to ensure their transport to tissue-building cell sites. Failure of this system may be a mechanism of cancer, heart disease or birth defects related to Wnt proteins, according to new research. Early cooling in cardiac arrest may improve survival
In a new study, patients were more likely to survive without brain damage after a cardiac arrest if emergency medical technicians lowered their body temperature early during resuscitation. Cooling is recommended for comatose patients after cardiac arrest, and this study demonstrates the potential benefits of beginning cooling even sooner during the arrest in the pre-hospital setting. Researchers Push Transmission Rate Of Copper Cables
You may not be able to get blood out of a turnip, but according to Penn State engineers, you can increase the data transmission of Category-7 copper cables used to connect computers to each other and the Internet. Asleep In The Deep: Model Helps Assess Ocean-injection Strategy For Co
In searching for ways to counteract the greenhouse effect, some scientists have proposed capturing the culprit--carbon dioxide--as it is emitted from power plants, then liquefying the gas and injecting it into the ocean. But there are pitfalls in that plan. Heparin Can Cause Skin Lesions
Heparin, a commonly used anticoagulant, can cause skin lesions, reports a new study. Skin lesions caused by heparin may indicate the presence of a life-threatening decrease in the number of platelets, a condition called "heparin-induced thrombocytopenia" or, in most cases, a self-limiting, allergic skin reaction. [Ironic] An Italian pensioner committed suicide after his wife fell in

Vibrantly colored creatures from the depths of the South Pacific Ocean harbor toxins that potentially can act as powerful anti-cancer drugs, according to research findings from University of Wisconsin-Madison biochemists and their Italian colleagues. Geoscientists Follow Arsenic From Chicken Feed To Streambeds
Organic arsenic is fed to poultry to prevent bacterial infections and improve weight gain. A little bit of arsenic is taken up by the tissue and the majority of it is excreted. Virginia Tech geoscientists are determining what happens to such feed additives when they are part of the manure applied to agricultural fields.
