Posted: 03 Jan 2014 05:52 AM PST DNA carries out its activities "diluted" in the cell nucleus. In this state, it synthesizes proteins and, even though it looks like a messy tangle of thread, in actual fact its structure is governed by precise rules that are important for it to carry out its functions. Biologists have studied DNA by observing it experimentally with a variety of techniques, which have only recently been supplemented by research in silico, that is to say, the study of DNA by means of computer simulations. |
Doctors experienced with using EHRs say they add value for patients Posted: 02 Jan 2014 12:23 PM PST A majority of surveyed physicians said they were alerted to a potential medication error or critical lab value by an electronic health record, finds a new study. |
New MRI technique illuminates wrist in motion Posted: 02 Jan 2014 10:36 AM PST Radiologists, medical physicists and orthopaedic surgeons have found a way to create "movies" of the wrist in motion using a series of brief magnetic resonance imaging scans. |
Smartphone as mentor: How tech could change behavior Posted: 23 Dec 2013 10:04 AM PST Funneling a steady stream of diversions straight to your pocket, smartphones are often cast as the ultimate distractors. But an engineering professor sees potential for them to be something quite the opposite. |
Analogue of tsunami for telecommunication Posted: 22 Dec 2013 01:19 PM PST Scientists have made a breakthrough invention in a new type of compact optical device generating stable ultrashort laser pulses. |

Genetically identical bacteria can behave in radically different ways Posted: 02 Jan 2014 11:20 AM PST When a bacterial cell divides into two daughter cells there can be an uneven distribution of certain survival mechanisms. The resulting cells can behave differently from each other, depending on which parts they received in the split. This is another way that cells within a population can diversify and enhance the odds that some members of a population of bacteria can avoid threats, such as antibiotics. |
Animal cells can communicate by reaching out, touching, study shows Posted: 02 Jan 2014 11:20 AM PST In a finding that directly contradicts the standard biological model of animal cell communication, scientists have discovered that typical cells in animals have the ability to transmit and receive biological signals by making physical contact with each other, even at long distance. |
International team completes systematic, genomic study of cervical cancer Posted: 26 Dec 2013 08:53 AM PST Researchers from the Boston area, Mexico, and Norway have completed a comprehensive genomic analysis of cervical cancer in two patient populations. The study identified recurrent genetic mutations not previously found in cervical cancer, including at least one for which targeted treatments have been approved for other forms of cancer. The findings also shed light on the role human papillomavirus plays in the development of cervical cancer. |
