| New breast cancer imaging technique could cut down on false positives Posted: 27 Sep 2013 06:27 AM PDT A new breast cancer screening technique is being developed that has the potential to reduce false positives, and, possibly, minimize the need for invasive biopsies. Scientists have created an MRI device that could improve both the process and accuracy of breast cancer screening by scanning for sodium levels in the breast.  |
| Repurposed antidepressants may treat small-cell lung cancer Posted: 27 Sep 2013 06:22 AM PDT A bioinformatics approach to repurposing drugs resulted in identification of a class of antidepressants as a potential new treatment for small-cell lung cancer.  |
| The spliceosome: More than meets the eye Posted: 26 Sep 2013 05:50 PM PDT In a recent paper, a team of researchers explain how the molecular machine known as the spliceosome begins the process of rearranging gene sequences in RNA splicing.  |
| Ballet dancers' brains adapt to stop them getting in a spin Posted: 26 Sep 2013 05:47 PM PDT Scientists have discovered differences in the brain structure of ballet dancers that may help them avoid feeling dizzy when they perform pirouettes.  |
| Setting blurred images in motion improves perception Posted: 26 Sep 2013 11:29 AM PDT Blurred images that are unidentifiable as still pictures become understandable once the images are set in motion. That's because of a phenomenon called "optic flow," which may be especially relevant as a source of visual information in people with low vision.  |
