Humankind’s ability to understand, and often drive, species extinction may be harnessed in the battle against cancer, according to a new study.

SMG prof: no gender discrimination in math-related sciences, problems elsewhere.

With the aid of X-ray crystallography, researchers at the University of Michigan have revealed the structures of two closely related enzymes that play essential roles in the body's ability to metabolize excess lipids, including cholesterol.

Lonza will host the 1st Global Endotoxin Testing Summit, which will take place from June 1-3rd 2015 in Annapolis, MD and Pickering Beach, DE.  The summit, hosted by one of the world’s leading suppliers of endotoxin detection products, will cover topics such as low endotoxin recovery, the use of alternative test methods that do not rely on horseshoe crab blood, and new options for process optimization.

New approach could enable low-cost silicon devices in fibers that could be made into fabrics

Getting rejected hurts depressed people for longer, U-M/Stony Brook/UIC study finds – due to the lack of a natural pain and stress-reducing chemical.

As a cheap and easy source of protein for humans, it might be hard to beat the mighty mealworm.

University of Utah engineers create filter for wireless communications using inkjet printer.

Delivering the capability to image nanostructures and chemical reactions down to nanometer resolution requires a new class of x-ray microscope that can perform precision microscopy experiments using ultra-bright x-rays from the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. This groundbreaking instrument, designed to deliver a suite of unprecedented x-ray imaging capabilities for the Hard X-ray Nanoprobe (HXN) beamline, brings researchers one step closer to the ultimate goal of nanometer resolution at NSLS-II, a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science User Facility.

AAAS discussion targets changing financial environment for biomedical research.

Berkeley Lab researchers link rising CO2 levels from fossil fuels to an upward trend in radiative forcing at two locations.

Emulsifiers, which are added to most processed foods to aid texture and extend shelf life, can alter the gut microbiota composition and localization to induce intestinal inflammation that promotes the development of inflammatory bowel disease and metabolic syndrome, new research shows.
