Trees with tales to tell
2/16/2012 Researchers find clues about changing climate in redwoods’ old rings In a small room tucked away in an obscure corner of Southern Oregon University’s Science Building, Kenneth Olejar positions himself on a pillow atop a gigantic, 6-foot-wide slab of … Continue reading
So what have the Romans ever done for us?
2/16/2012 Ireland’s links with the Roman empire are being investigated in a new archaeological project in which science plays a large part FIRST CENTURY AD. The Roman General Agricola reportedly says he can take and hold Ireland with a single … Continue reading

1/25/2012 The 2012 Louis-Jeantet Prize for Medicine is awarded to the German specialist in systems biology Matthias Mann, Director of the Department of Proteomics and Signal Transduction at the Max-Planck-Institute of Biochemistry in Martinsried, and to the British biologist Fiona … Continue reading
Technical note: Interpreting stable carbon isotopes in human tooth enamel: An examination of tissue spacings from South Africa
1/25/2012 Abstract Stable isotope analysis of skeletal tissues is widely used in archeology and paleoanthropology to reconstruct diet. In material that is poorly preserved or very old, the tissue of choice is frequently tooth enamel, since this is less susceptible … Continue reading
Isotope effects in high-Tc cuprate superconductors as support for the bipolaron theory of superconductivity
1/24/2012 Abstract We provide a unified parameter-free explanation of the observed oxygen-isotope effects on the critical temperature, the magnetic-field penetration depth and on the normal-state pseudogap for underdoped cuprate superconductors within the framework of the multi-(bi)polaron theory with strong Coulomb … Continue reading

We … Continue reading
Measurement of Hepatic Protein Fractional Synthetic Rate with Stable Isotope Labeling Technique in Thapsigargin Stressed HepG2 Cells
1/24/2012 Abstract Severe burn-induced liver damage and dysfunction is associated with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. ER stress has been shown to regulate global protein synthesis. In the current study, we induced ER stress in vitro and estimated the effect of … Continue reading
The chemistry of exploding stars
1/20/2012 Fundamental chemical processes in predecessors of our solar system are now a bit better understood: An international team led by Peter Hoppe, researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry in Mainz, has now examined dust inclusions of the … Continue reading
