Read moreAt a snail's pace - this is how proteins should move inside living cells where viscosity of environment exceeds the viscosity of water even by million times. However, proteins move not much slower than in water! While looking for a solution to this puzzle, scientists from the Institute of Physical Chemistry of the PolishAcademy of Sciences discovered a new principle of physics.

Read moreUntil now, it has been assumed that during photoemission the electron start moving out of the atom immediately after the impact of the photon. This point in time can be detected and has so far been considered as coincident with the arrival time of the light pulse, i.e. with 'time zero' in the interaction of light with matter. Using their ultra-short time measurement technology, physicists have now tested this assumption.

Read moreResearchers from the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University, Harvard Medical School and Children's Hospital Boston have created a device that mimics a living, breathing human lung on a microchip. The device, about the size of a rubber eraser, acts much like a lung in a human body and is made using human lung and blood vessel cells.

Read moreEUREKA project E! 3371 Gene Transfer Agents has made great advances in the development of novel non-viral carriers able to introduce genetic material into the target cells. These new agents, derivatives of cationic amphiphilic 1,4-dihydropyridine (1,4-DHP), avoid the problems of the recipient's immune system reacting against a viral carrier.

Read moreIn trying to copy the photosynthesis in the laboratory a team of scientists of the Universities of Jena and Erlangen-Nuernberg and of the Institute of Photonic Technology (IPHT) in Jena (Germany) made a huge step forward. The physicists and chemists were able to prove in their tests, that the first step already affects the efficiency of hydrogen generation.
