Future Therapeutic Strategies May Depend on Creative Scientific Approaches Today
SYRACUSE, New York, Oct. 31 -- Syracuse University issued the following news: Before any scientific question can be answered, it must be dreamed up. What happens to cause a healthy cell or tissue to change, for instance, isn't fully understood. While much is known about chemical exposures that can lead to genetic mutation, damaged DNA, inflammation and even cancer, what has rarely been asked is how physical stressors in the environment can cause a cell or tissue to respond and adapt. It's a pie  more

Georgia State Astronomers Make It Easier to Discover Life on Other Planets
ATLANTA, Georgia, Nov. 1 (TNSres) -- Georgia State University issued the following news: Two astronomers in Georgia State's Department of Physics & Astronomy have created a roadmap that could help scientists find life on other planets by studying the most common stars in the universe. Called M dwarf stars, these bodies make up roughly three-fourths of the stars in the universe, even though none can be seen with the naked eye. "I think nearly all types of stars could support life," said Wei-Ch  more
