Molecular biology fills gaps in knowledge of bat evolution
One in five mammals living on Earth is a bat, yet their evolutionary history is largely unknown because of a limited fossil record and conflicting or incomplete theories about their origins and divergence. Now, a research team including University of California, Riverside Biology Professor Mark Springer, has published a paper in the Jan. 28 issue of the journal Science that uses molecular...Inexpensive, mass-produced genes core of synthetic biology advances at UH
;progress in this area is made in the UK, too. It'll open tons ofresearch avenue, speeding the slow (and tedious) process of genecloning, or gene modification (mutations, deletions, etc).

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today released an automated literature search tool for the multidisciplinary study of biological systems. The tool is available as a free plug-in to Cytoscape 2.1, an open-source bioinformatics platform that enables researchers to form a visual map of complex biological networks, increasing their understanding of molecular pathways and the biological causes of...Supercomputer Dedicated To Bioengineering, Computational Biology Installed
The University of California, San Diego, with support from the National Institutes of Health and the Whitaker Foundation, has installed a supercomputer dedicated to solving a wide range of challenging biological problems. The 210-node Dell PowerEdge Linux cluster capable of 2.6 trillion mathematical operations per second, the second most powerful computer cluster on campus, will be used to analyz...Institute for Systems Biology Symposium Addresses Need for Better Computational Tools
The Institute for Systems Biology announced today at its 2005 international symposium on Computational Challenges in Systems Biology that ISB's Human Proteome Folding Project launched on IBM's World Community Grid in November 2004 has already predicted 50,000 protein structures. "This project showcases the enormous power of collaborations," stated Dr. Richard Bonneau, senior scientist at t...Cleland’s Reagent, Molecular Biology Grade from Calbiochem

Drug addiction can be better handled following discovery of a novel chemical compound that blocks memory-related drug cravings. The finding has all the potential to be the basis of new therapies to aid drug-addiction recovery efforts // according to neurobiologists. Because exposure to people, places and objects previously associated with a drug habit can trigger overwhelming memory-b...Studying the psycho neurobiology of aging
New Orleans – The manner with which an individual responds to stress may be more relevant to aging rather than the chronological age, say leading researchers in the fields of neurobiology and psychoneuroendocrinology. // Healthy aging is all about handling stress well and having a very healthy lifestyle. From a review of studies on how stress hormones affect the brain, psychologist Bru...Wear and Tear of Stress: The Psychoneurobiology of Aging
Age may be more related to reactions to stress and the absence of disease rather than to a person’s chronological age, say leading researchers in the fields of neurobiology// and psychoneuroendocrinology. And healthy aging is a good bet if stress can be moderated along with adopting an active, healthy lifestyle. This finding will be presented at the 114th Annual Convention of the American Psychol...Gene Involved In Common Birth Defect Also Regulates Skin Biology
Following up on an earlier discovery that a gene called IRF6 is involved in the common birth defect cleft lip and palate, researchers at the University of Iowa Roy J. and// Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine and their colleagues have identified the function of the gene. Their latest findings, published online Oct. 15 in Nature Genetics, reveal an unexpected role for IRF6 in the growth and deve...Biology, Not Only Parents, Turns Sweet Kids into Delinquents
Not all parents are at fault if their kids take up a life of crime, for a new study has found linked delinquency in children to biology . Rutgers University psychologist, Daniel Hart, and colleagues Nancy Eisenberg and Carlos Valiente of Arizona State University have found that in kids, a highly reactive autonomic nervous system, which regulates our cardiovascular, digestive and res...NanoChip Molecular Biology Workstation
Description:The system that makes it all possibleOpen. Automated. Accurate. The NanoChip Molecular Biology Workstation is an automated multi-purpose instrument that facilitates detection of known sequences, such as in the analysis of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and Short Tandem Repeats (STRs) using the NanoChip Electronic Microarray. The unique, open-architecture design permits research...Certified Molecular Biology Agarose
Description:This new general-purpose agarose, like the entire line of Bio-Rad agaroses, is genetic quality tested (GQT) grade. This ensures that DNA recovered from a preparative gel can be manipulated without compromising quality. Certified molecular biology agarose is a linear polymer with a very high molecular weight, resulting in a gel structure unlike those of traditional agaroses. In addition to the ver...AGAROSE I (Molecular Biology Grade)
