Pain perception is conserved an evolutionarily warning mechanism that alerts us to dangers in the environment and to potential tissue damage.

Until now, however, production of these artificial structures has been limited to water-based environments, because DNA naturally functions inside the watery environment of living cells.

Researchers at the Georgia Institute of technology have shown now that they can assemble DNA NANOSTRUCTURES in a solvent containing no water.

The research identified surprising similarities between the SIRV2 virus and the spores bacteria form to survive in inhospitable environments. ome of these spores are responsible for very,

The idea behind the research was to include environment of the tumour too, not just the tumour itself,

The exquisite sensitivity of RAPID is based on the avalanche effect. Every photon arriving into the detector is converted into many more than one electron,

The avalanche effect is obtained without having to cool the detector to extremely low temperatures avoiding the use of a complex cooling system,

the warmer the atmosphere becomes, exacerbating global climate change. Solving the problem is not so simple, especially with regards to aviation the source of two-percent of the annual greenhouse gas emissions from human activity.

While biofuels have proven to be an effective, renewable, low-carbon alternative to gasoline and diesel, jet fuels pose unique challenges.

Biofuels synthesized from the sugars in plant biomass help mitigate climate change. However jet fuels have stringent requirements that must be met. et fuels must be oxygen-free,

but offer only modest greenhouse gas reduction benefits. Ours is the first process to generate true drop in aviation biofuels.

Lubricant base oils can produce even more greenhouse gas emissions on a per-mass basis than petroleum-derived fuels

and agricultural waste that are fermented by genetically engineered microbes. lthough there are some additional technical challenges associated with using sugars derived entirely from biomass feedstocks like Miscanthus

In their PNAS paper the authors acknowledge that the commercial implementation of their proposed process would include financial implications that extend beyond greenhouse gas emission reductions

#Research Simplifies Recycling of Rare-earth Magnets Despite their ubiquity in consumer electronics, rare-earth metals are,

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have pioneered now a process that could enable the efficient recycling two of these metals, neodymium and dysprosium.

and can perform computations based on changes in the environment or movement, and potentially even respond to human vital signs.

and he thinks there may be more DOE funding for it in the near future. he idea in this technology is to transmit the data using the lighting systems that are used already for the illumination of indoor environments,

Visible light communications has the potential to significantly increase the speed of Internet connection in multiuser indoor environments due to the broad bandwidth of the visible light,

although it can be attributed to a combination of genetics and the environment. A team of researchers from the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO) have discovered now that telomeres

One is that the exposure to environmental hazards, such as radiation, smoking or pollution, greatly increases the risk.

e have seen that acute telomere damage is sufficient to trigger pulmonary fibrosis, even in the absence of environmental damage.

The researchers therefore developed an animal model that combines premature shortening of the telomeres due to telomerase deficiency, with low doses of environmental damage.

The project results have important implications for desalination and energy conversion using salinity gradients. They can shed new light on the fundamental processes occurring in the nanoscale biological pores that funnel essential ingredients into cells. e also developed some key data processing methods
