| Posted: 12 Jun 2015 11:36 AM PDT Scientists have harnessed the circadian mechanism found in cyanobacteria to transplant the circadian wiring into a common species of bacteria that is naturally non-circadian. The novel work, which for the first time demonstrates the transplant of a circadian rhythm.  |
| First room-temperature magnetic skyrmion bubbles Posted: 12 Jun 2015 11:30 AM PDT Researchers have just announced a new method for creating magnetic skyrmion bubbles at room temperature. The bubbles, a physics phenomenon thought to be an option for more energy-efficient and compact electronics, can be created with simple equipment and common materials.  |
| Mini-breasts grown in petri dishes Posted: 12 Jun 2015 06:15 AM PDT About 70,000 Women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year in Germany alone. Despite significant progress in the treatment of common types of breast cancer, some aggressive subtypes are poorly understood and remain incurable. A new experimental model opens new avenues for mammary gland biology and basic breast cancer research. Researchers are now able to create three-dimensional organoid-structures that recapitulate normal breast development and function from single patient-derived cells.  |
| Fighting climate change, with cement Posted: 12 Jun 2015 06:11 AM PDT The cement industry is one of the largest sources worldwide of carbon emissions, accounting for around five per cent of global emissions. New technologies may help substantially lower these emissions.  |
| Six-month-old conjoined twin sisters separated in Haiti Posted: 09 Jun 2015 06:27 AM PDT On Friday, May 22, physicians and nurses separated a pair of six-month-old conjoined Haitian twins, the first such operation ever performed on Haitian soil.  |
