| Moon-walk mineral discovered in Western Australia Posted: 15 Jan 2012 07:36 PM PST The last mineral thought to have been unique to the Moon has been discovered in the remote Pilbara region of Western Australia.  |
| Researchers use sugar to halt esophageal cancer in its tracks Posted: 15 Jan 2012 12:09 PM PST Scientists have identified changes in the patterns of sugar molecules that line pre-cancerous cells in the esophagus, a condition called Barrett's dysplasia, making it much easier to detect and remove these cells before they develop into esophageal cancer. These findings have important implications for patients and may help to monitor their condition and prevent the development of cancer.  |
| Scientists introduces automated imaging to greatly speed whole-brain mapping efforts Posted: 15 Jan 2012 11:00 AM PST New technology transforms the way detailed anatomical images can be made of whole brains and will greatly facilitate systematic comparison of neuroanatomy in mouse models of human brain disorders, e.g., autism and schizophrenia.  |
| Researchers use sugar to halt esophageal cancer in its tracks Posted: 15 Jan 2012 10:59 AM PST Scientists have identified changes in the patterns of sugar molecules that line pre-cancerous cells in the esophagus, a condition called Barrett's dysplasia, making it much easier to detect and remove these cells before they develop into esophageal cancer. These findings have important implications for patients and may help to monitor their condition and prevent the development of cancer.  |
| In tackling lead pollution, fungi may be our friends Posted: 12 Jan 2012 10:43 AM PST Fungi may be unexpected allies in our efforts to keep hazardous lead under control. That's based on the unexpected discovery that fungi can transform lead into its most stable mineral form. The findings suggest that this interaction between fungi and lead may be occurring in nature anywhere the two are found together. It also suggests that the introduction or encouragement of fungi may be a useful treatment strategy for lead-polluted sites.  |
