| Old drugs find new target for treating brain tumor Posted: 18 Nov 2011 12:14 PM PST Scientists say they have identified a novel gene mutation that causes at least one form of glioblastoma, the most common type of malignant brain tumor.  |
| Posted: 18 Nov 2011 10:30 AM PST Scientists have succeeded in creating light from vacuum – observing an effect first predicted over 40 years ago. In an innovative experiment, the scientists have managed to capture some of the photons that are constantly appearing and disappearing in the vacuum.  |
| More accurate tropical cyclone prediction model developed Posted: 18 Nov 2011 10:30 AM PST While the prediction of hurricane tracks have steadily improved over the last few decades, improvements in the predictions of storm intensity and structure have proven much more difficult.  |
| Protection from severe malaria explained Posted: 18 Nov 2011 10:30 AM PST Why do people with a hereditary mutation of the red blood pigment hemoglobin (as is the case with sickle-cell anemia prevalent in Africa) not contract severe malaria? Scientists have now solved this mystery.  |
