Psychiatrists Can Now Predict An Individual Patient's Response To A Drug
The first in a new generation of gene microarrays, computer chips that chemically or electrically express DNA, can predict how a person's body will metabolize about 25 percent of drugs on the market, ... > more -
Biomedical Engineers' 'Body-on-a-Chip' Could Reduce Cost of Developing New Drugs
A new kind of microchip can host human cells to mimic the reaction of different tissues in the body. The chip could help reduce the need for animal testing, and lower the cost of developing new ... > more -
Environmental Engineers Link Contamination Levels to Tides
By washing decomposing plants into the ocean, high tides could contribute to the increased levels of Enterococci that are often responsible for beach closures. Scientists have now established a clear ... > more -
Paleontologists Teach Medical Students About Fossil Tumors
Using medical-physics tools such as CT scans, medical students can learn to recognize a tumor even in a 150-million-year-old dinosaur bone. Paleontologists say the role of disease during evolution ... > more -
Orthopedic Surgeons Help Athletes' ACLs Recover Better
A new procedure for torn ACLs could keep athletes back in the game longer. The knee has two bundles of fibers connecting the thighbone to the shinbone, and the new procedure, called double bundle, ... > more -
Musician Puts Love for Computer Science into Minimalist Synthesizer
