Unearthing fossils, millions-of-years old, no longer surprise us. Technology makes even the study of such prehistoric fossils easier than what was even a decade back. But, the happening world does not seem to satisfy the scientists with the available.
Till now, chemotherapy was taken as the last hope for patients with cancer. Well, the good new is soon to buzz all afflicted with cancer. According to this news, therapy called radioimmunotherapy is far more effective against cancer cells....
Imagine a rodent or a mouse, weighing half of normal mice with 90 percent less body fat, but can eat 60 percent more than the ordinary mice! Sounds like a children-fiction character? No, it is a 'real' mouse straight from the laboratory, created by...
Researchers at Harvard University have discovered new colourful way of brain mapping. The 'brainbow technique' allow researchers to activate fluorescent proteins in neurons creating a 'brainbow' that will make mapping of the brain and the nervous...
We are quite familiar with the process of making water in the laboratory, which is taught, to all high school students. The oxygen and hydrogen gas are ignited with a spark and with loud pop water is formed. Scientists at the University of Illinois...
Scientists may now be able to make cancer-fighting drugs that can target tumors far more effectively by using ultra-violet light to activate them. Professor Colin Self and Dr Stephen Thompson from Newcastle University have developed a procedure,...
Researchers say cats get more than 200 diseases that resemble human illnesses. They hope the research in cats will help cure human illnesses. An Abyssinian cat from Missouri, named Cinnamon has just given scientists hope and made scientific...
Creating engineered tissues in lab is a difficult task. The problem seemed to have a solution in a recent discovery by researchers of the Cornell University. They have engineered micro-channels within a water-based gel that can act as a vascular system...
Have scientists ultimately discovered the process by which life could be formed in the laboratory?! Although, this might not be ascertained at present, a German nano-technologist have designed molecules and programmed them with organizational...
