Discovery

ScienceDaily reported that genevision will answer the needs of uncanny ability to view the activity of any chosen gene in real time through a specially modified camera. A new study in BMC Biotechnology correlates real-time gene expression with movement and behavior for the first time. It is expected that this technology will enable correlate behavior [...]

It was reported in Nanotech-now that a new type of laser has just been discovered. The new finding was found by the researchers from Princetown University. They discovered a new mechanism for making common electronic materials emit laser beams. They claimed that the new electronic laser beams will work more efficiently. It also works at higher [...]

In 2006, WHO reported evidence of limited human-to-human spread of H5N1 virus. In this situation, 8 people in one family were affected, with 7 deaths. This is the main reason, why Indonesia became the country with most cases of human H5N1 flu. Recently, NewScientist reported, in the latest World Health Organization meeting, there was a [...]

Researchers from a CNRS / Université Paris Diderot, led by Professor Hugues, found that retinoic acid and arsenic oxide induce the differentiation of malignant cells in acute promyelocytic leukemias. Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by an excess of immature and malignant cells. Leukemia known to be a cancer of the blood or bone marrow [...]

In the University of California, Berkeley, Jack Gallant and colleagues showed that they could tell which of a set of images someone was looking at from a brain scan. They mentioned that we’ll be able to record images we’ve seen by analyzing the brain signals, so that we can reconstruct the images in a record. To do [...]

Beside primates, dogs recently have been found to have a jealous feeling. What a funny fact, right? NewScientist reported, when a dog treated unfair compared to another dogs in the same environment, he’ll show his envy clearly. Well, how will he act, then? Friederike Range and her colleagues at the University of Vienna, Austria, asked [...]

The radiation of cell phone has been found to affect animals memory. In the research held by the Division of Neurosurgery–Lund University, in Sweden–it was found that rats, the used object were exposed to mobile phone radiation for two hours a week for more than a year. The research led by Henrietta Nittby. She said [...]

Due to human needs to minimize the damage effect of hurricanes or typhoons, the scientists at the University of Akron in Ohio are now developing a new technology. The researchers led by Arkadii Leonov, came with the idea of converting the destructive power of the storm into heat energy from warm oceans into damaging [...]
