Scientists Identify Neurons That Control Feeding Behavior in Drosophila
June 14, 2013 — Scientists have developed a novel transgenic system which allows them to remotely activate individual brain cells in the model organism Drosophila using ambient temperature. This powerful new tool ... > full story -
Secrets of Biological Soil Crusts Uncovered
June 14, 2013 — Biologists have performed a molecular level analysis of desert biological soil crusts -- living ground cover formed by microbial communities -- to reveal how long-dormant cyanobacteria become ... > full story -
New Findings Regarding DNA Damage Checkpoint Mechanism in Oxidative Stress
June 14, 2013 — Researchers have uncovered a previously unknown surveillance mechanism, known as a DNA damage checkpoint, used by cells to monitor oxidatively damaged DNA. DNA repair takes place approximately 10,000 ... > full story -

Testing Method Promising for Spinal Cord Injuries, Multiple Sclerosis
June 14, 2013 — A medical test previously developed to measure a toxin found in tobacco smokers has been adapted to measure the same toxin in people suffering from spinal cord injuries and multiple sclerosis, ... > full story -
Metabolic Molecule Drives Growth of Aggressive Brain Cancer
June 14, 2013 — A new study has identified an abnormal metabolic pathway that drives cancer-cell growth in a particular subtype of glioblastoma, the most common and lethal form of brain cancer. The finding could ... > full story -
Menopause May Be an Unintended Outcome of Men's Preference for Younger Mates
June 14, 2013 — After decades of laboring under other theories that never seemed to add up, biologists have concluded that menopause is actually an unintended outcome of natural selection generated by men's ... > full story -
Geneticists Solve Mystery of EEC Syndrome's Variable Severity in Children
June 14, 2013 — By identifying a protein that acts as a genetic modifier, scientists have solved the mystery of why some infants are born with a grave syndrome consisting of cleft palate and major deformities of the ... > full story -
Using Math to Kill Cancer Cells
June 14, 2013 — Scientists have outlined how advanced mathematical modelling can be used in the fight against cancer. The technique predicts how different treatments and genetic modifications might allow ... > full story -
A Turbocharger for Nerve Cells: Key Mechanism Boosts the Signaling Function of Neurons in Brain
June 14, 2013 — Locating a car that's blowing its horn in heavy traffic, channel-hopping between football and a thriller on TV without losing the plot, and not forgetting the start of a sentence by the time we have ... > full story -
Discovery of How a Gene That Regulates Factors Involved in Bacteria Pathogenicity Acts
June 14, 2013 — A discovery has been made of the way in which the glgS gene (now renamed as the “surface composition regulator”, scoR) acts in bacteria and how the mechanisms involved in bacterial ... > full story
