| Bacterial infection makes farmers out of amoebae Posted: 24 Aug 2015 12:25 PM PDT A bacterial infection turns non-farming social amoebae into farmers, evolutionary biologists report. |
| How zebrafish rebuild the skeleton of amputated fins Posted: 24 Aug 2015 08:46 AM PDT Researchers have uncovered the mechanisms that allow bone-forming cells to regenerate a correctly shaped new fin skeleton. |
| MouthLab: Patients' vital signs are just a breath away Posted: 24 Aug 2015 08:45 AM PDT Engineers and physicians have developed a hand-held, battery-powered device that quickly picks up vital signs from a patient's lips and fingertip. |
| Research may solve ancient lunar fire fountain mystery Posted: 24 Aug 2015 08:42 AM PDT Scientists have found traces of carbon in volcanic glass collected from the Apollo missions to the Moon. The finding may not only explain the driving force behind ancient 'fire fountain' eruptions on the Moon but also suggest that some volatile elements on the Moon and Earth have a common origin. |
| Synthesis of a new nanomaterial: Self-assembly may work within the body Posted: 24 Aug 2015 08:05 AM PDT Scientists have discovered, for the first time, a new nanocomposite formed by the self-assembly of copper and a biological component that occurs under physiological conditions, which are similar those found in the human body and could be used in targeted drug delivery for fighting diseases such as cancer. |
| Ants take drugs: Ants choose to ingest hydrogen peroxide after being infected with fungus Posted: 24 Aug 2015 03:49 AM PDT We humans have been using self-medication to cure the illnesses since the dawn of our species. There is some evidence that also other animals can exhibit this type of behavior, but the evidence has been hard to come by. |
