| New effective treatment for tinnitus? Posted: 28 May 2012 03:08 PM PDT Scientists have demonstrated the effectiveness of a new tinnitus treatment. Tinnitus is the perception of a noxious disabling internal sound without an external source. Roughly fifteen percent of the population suffers from this disorder in varying degrees along with the associated concentration problems, sleep disturbances, anxiety, depression and extreme fatigue.  |
| Edible stop signs? A few red chips in the stack cut snacking in half Posted: 28 May 2012 03:00 PM PDT Once you pop the top of a tube of potato chips, it can be hard to stop munching its contents. But researchers may have found a novel way to help: Add edible serving size markers that act as subconscious stop signs.  |
| Engineered microvessels provide a 3-D test bed for human diseases Posted: 28 May 2012 12:49 PM PDT Bioengineers have developed the first structure to grow small human blood vessels, creating a 3-D test bed that offers a better way to study disease, test drugs and perhaps someday grow human tissues for transplant.  |
| New stem cell technique promises abundance of key heart cells Posted: 28 May 2012 12:49 PM PDT Cardiomyocytes, the workhorse cells that make up the beating heart, can now be made cheaply and abundantly in the laboratory.  |
| People smile when they are frustrated, and the computer knows the difference Posted: 28 May 2012 12:27 PM PDT Do you smile when you're frustrated? Most people think they don't -- but they actually do, a new study has found. What's more, it turns out that computers programmed with the latest information from this research do a better job of differentiating smiles of delight and frustration than human observers do.  |
| Discovery promises unique medicine for treatment of chronic and diabetic wounds Posted: 28 May 2012 07:02 AM PDT A unique new medicine that can start and accelerate healing of diabetic and other chronic wounds is now being developed. After several years of successful experimental research, it is now ready for clinical testing.  |
