Biosensor Sniffs Out Explosives
May 8, 2007 Scientists have developed a new biosensor that sniffs out explosives and could one day be used to detect landmines and deadly agents, such as sarin gas, according to a paper in Nature Chemical ... > full story -
Master Regulatory Gene Of Epithelial Stem Cells Identified
May 3, 2007 The skin's ability to replace the tissue it sloughs off is controlled by a variety of genes. A new study, however, identifies a "master regulator" of this regeneration process not only for skin, but ... > full story -
Novel Antigen-Cloning Technique May Boost Efforts To Develop A Melanoma Vaccine
