Hughes of the Air Force Research Laboratory in Rome, N.Y. is leading a team investigating long-distance, mobile optical links imperative for secure quantum communications capabilities in theater. http://www.physorg.com/news175870527.html Technology Tue, 27 Oct 2009 14:20:01 EST news175870527 Researchers at Harvard University have found that humans aren't the only ones who can groove to a beat -- some other species can dance, too. This capability was previously believed to be specific to humans. The research team found that only species that can mimic sound seem to be able to keep a beat, implying an evolutionary link between the two capacities. http://www.physorg.com/news160315376.html Biology Thu, 30 Apr 2009 13:04:38 EST news160315376 (PhysOrg.com) -- Handsets, laptops, cars and even clothes: they are all part of the ‘network of things`, an incarnation of the future internet, and European researchers are working hard to create that future now. http://www.physorg.com/news155834634.html Technology Mon, 09 Mar 2009 16:24:36 EST news155834634 About one in 3,500 people are affected with retinitis pigmentosa (RP), a disease of the retina's visual cells that eventually leads to blindness. Now, a University of Missouri researcher has identified a genetic link between cats and humans for two different forms of RP. This discovery will help scientists develop gene-based therapies that will benefit both cats and humans. http://www.physorg.com/news155395035.html Medicine & Health Wed, 04 Mar 2009 13:17:57 EST news155395035 Lack of sleep, excessive television/computer screen time, stress, gambling, alcohol and tobacco use and other health-related issues are taking a toll on college students' academic performance, according to a study released by the University of Minnesota Boynton Health Service. http://www.physorg.com/news143809940.html Medicine & Health Tue, 21 Oct 2008 12:12:20 EST news143809940 (PhysOrg.com) -- Scientists at the world-leading Department of Genetics at the University of Leicester - where the revolutionary technique of genetic fingerprinting was invented by Professor Sir Alec Jeffreys- are developing techniques which may one day allow police to work out someone's surname from the DNA alone. http://www.physorg.com/news142654395.html Biology Wed, 08 Oct 2008 03:13:15 EST news142654395
