[04/08/2010] The Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) and the Institute of Electrotechnology (ETP) at the Leibniz Universität Hannover have developed a process to inductively harden and weld multi-piece construction elements of heat-treatable steels in one step. Short Welding - read more
New Theory of Protein Transport
( Source: COMPAMED.de )
[30/07/2010] Polymer strands wriggle their way through nanometer-sized pores in a membrane to get from here to there and do their jobs. New theoretical research by Rice University scientists quantifies precisely how long the journey takes. New Theory of Protein Transport - read more
BC5 Shows Superhard, Superconducting Potential

World's Thinnest Material
( Source: COMPAMED.de )
[17/06/2010] Graphene oxide, a single - atomic-layered material made by reacting graphite powders with strong oxidizing agents - has attracted a lot of interest from scientists. They focused on its ability to easily convert to grapheme - a hotly studied material that scientists believe could be used to produce low-cost carbon-based transparent and flexible electronics.

Computational Model Reveals Brain Activity
( Source: COMPAMED.de )
[16/06/2010] A new mathematical model was recently developed to describe how the human brain visually identifies objects. The model accurately predicts human performance on certain visual-perception tasks, which suggests that it’s a good indication of what actually happens in the brain.

First Tests In Living Animals
( Source: COMPAMED.de )
[15/06/2010] Scientists are reporting the first evidence that a plastic antibody — an artificial version of the proteins produced by the body's immune system to recognize and fight infections and foreign substances — works in the bloodstream of a living animal.
