DNA sequencing to detect genetic mutations can aid in the diagnosis and selection of treatment for cancer. Current methods of testing DNA samples, Sanger sequencing and pyrosequencing, occasionally produce complex results that can be difficult or impossible to interpret. Scientists at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine have developed ...

(Simon Fraser University) Simon Fraser University researcher James Wakeling is adding to the arsenal of increasingly sophisticated medical imaging tools with a new signal-processing method for viewing muscle activation details never seen before. His novel method using ultrasound imaging, 3D motion-capture technology and proprietary data-processing software can scan and capture ...

Researchers are constantly finding new ways to figure out what makes us human beings tick, and one of the newer methods makes you want to spit—literally. Saliva is full of analytes and biomarkers that create a biological journal of exposure to chemicals and disease, and genetic variability. However, the collection ...

(PhysOrg.com) -- Charles Darwin was the first to speculate that plants contain hormones. His pioneering research led to the identification of the very first and key plant growth hormone — auxin — in 1937.

(Medical Xpress) -- Researchers with the National Children’s Study at South Dakota State University, in collaboration with Dr. H. Eugene Hoyme, chief academic officer at Sanford Health and president and senior scientist for Sanford Research/University of South Dakota, are working to develop a standardized assessment tool that would be used ...

(International Osteoporosis Foundation) The widely used WHO Fracture Risk Assessment Tool has now been released as version 3.5. The tool now includes new models for Ecuador, Norway, Russia, Slovakia and Sri Lanka. The model for Sri Lanka is the first surrogate model, built by combining national mortality data with ...
