| Strange behavior: New study exposes living cells to synthetic protein Posted: 27 Dec 2012 11:30 AM PST Scientists have fabricated an artificial protein in the laboratory and examined the surprising ways living cells respond to it.  |
| Liquid crystal research may lead to creation of new materials that can be actively controlled Posted: 27 Dec 2012 08:08 AM PST Contributing geometric and topological analyses of micro-materials, mathematicians aided experimental physicists by successfully explaining the observed "beautiful and complex patterns revealed" in three-dimensional liquid crystal experiments. The work is expected to lead to creation of new materials that can be actively controlled.  |
| Evidence contradicts idea that starvation caused saber-tooth cat extinction Posted: 26 Dec 2012 07:28 PM PST The latest study of the microscopic wear patterns on the teeth of the American lions and saber-toothed cats that roamed North America in the late Pleistocene found that they were living well off the fat of the land in the period just before they went extinct.  |
