Our willingness to listen to music is biological trait and related to the neurobiological pathways affecting social affiliation and communication, suggests a recent Finnish study.
Music is listened to in all known cultures. Similarities between human and animal song have been detected: both contain a message, an intention that reflects innate emotional state that is interpreted [...]

Scientists Sequence Gut Microbes of Premature Infant

18 January, 2011 (16:01) | Filters Picture | By: anthea

Scientists have for the first time sequenced and reconstructed the genomes of most of the microbes in the gut of a premature newborn and documented how the microbe populations changed over time.
Further studies involving more infants could eventually help researchers understand the causes of various intestinal problems that afflict preemies, in particular Disposable Vacuum Filtration the [...]

Stem Cells from Amniotic Fluid

25 November, 2010 (17:14) | Filters Picture | By: anthea

Reprogrammed amniotic fluid cells can generate all types of body cells. High hopes rest on stem cells: one day, they may be used to treat many diseases. To date, embryos are the main source of these cells, but this raises ethical problems. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin have now [...]

Fermi Detects Gamma-Rays from Exploding Nova

25 August, 2010 (16:14) | Filters Picture | By: anthea

Using the Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope satellite, astronomers have detected gamma rays from a nova for the first time, a finding that surprises both observers and theorists. The discovery dispels the long-held idea that nova Disposable Vacuum Filtration explosions are not powerful enough to produce such high-energy radiation.

These findings are [...]

Just like people in a bar or other noisy location, North American right whales increase the volume of their calls as environmental noise increases; and just like humans, at a certain point, it may become too costly to continue to shout, according to new products promotion marine and acoustic scientists.
“The impacts of increases in ocean noise [...]

Depressed Mice Could Aid Research

30 June, 2010 (17:33) | Filters Picture | By: anthea

New research shows that a unique strain of laboratory mice characterized at Penn State University has behavioral, hormonal, and neurochemical characteristics that are similar to those of human patients with drug-resistant forms of depression. The mice — which have a cartridge filter defect in a gene — are expected to be useful as a new model [...]

Scientists have taken another important step toward understanding just how sticking needles into the body can ease pain.
The research focuses on adenosine, a natural compound known for its role in  sample vials regulating sleep, for its effects on the heart, and for its anti-inflammatory properties. But adenosine also acts as a natural painkiller, becoming active in the [...]
