I was always thinking that women can control their hunger better than men. Well, I have many friends–boys–who can not do something before they eat something. While women, we can control our hunger, and stay doing something till finish before get meals. It is rare to see a woman eats 5 times a day, but it [...]

In the previous research held by Departments of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology and Genetics, Harvard Medical School, Boston, and Department of Cancer Biology, Dana–Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, the induced alignment of membrane proteins has been used for NMR structure determination. Yet recently, Arizona State University researchers reveal for the first time the three-dimensional character of [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

A physical therapy is one of the important phase in the recovery process of patients who undergo joint replacement surgery. Usually, this process will take patients away from their bedside health monitors; but a new device is making it possible to safely monitor patients back to health. ScienceDaily reported that nowadays, surgeons have provided recent [...]

Wow! Way to go to the maturity of technology here, when the engineers and computer scientist work together. They developed a software to coordinate the movement of thousands of cars in case of an emergency situation, by analyzing the traffic flow. Well, I do learn Dynamic Programming Model in my college, but modeling the cars [...]

By analyzing the electromagnetic signals produced by every key press on the keyboard, the security researchers at Swiss have made it possible to steal data from criminals. The Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne students tested 11 different keyboard models that connected to a computer via either a USB or a PS/2 socket. The researchers [...]

It was reported in ScienceDaily, the researchers from Ohio State University suggest that animals has been walking using legs 30 million years earlier than previously thought. From the footprints found (track of two parallel rows of small dots) they firstly thought that it was microbe or multi-cellular animals. Loren Babcock, the professor in the research said [...]

Creating a new process to improve the efficiency of computer or any other hardware is no simple matter. But now, a nanoscale based technology has been introduced to the world of science and computer industry. It promises a more efficient, smarter, even faster speed. Of course this is the part of nanotechnology that will enable people [...]
