New Molecular Self-Assembly
Technique May Mimic How Cells
Assemble Themselves
Feb. 21, 2003
*************************
Researchers have created tree-like
molecules that assemble themselves
into precisely structured building
blocks of a quarter-million atoms.
Such building blocks may be
precursors to designing
nanostructures for molecular
electronics or photonics materials,
which "steer" light in the same way...

University Of Michigan Launches
Ambitious Exploration Of Inner Space
Feb. 24, 2003
*************************
University of Michigan researchers
will attempt to capture
never-before-seen views of the
chemical activity inside living
cells in real time and 3-D. The team
will be using synthetic nanoprobes
small enough to fit inside a cell
without interrupting its normal
functions to measure the activity...

Disposable satellite transmitters,
inexpensive medical testing
equipment and sensors for
automatically tracking inventory or
traffic patterns will become
possible over the next 10 years
through developments in
nanotechnology, speakers at the
Nanotech 2003 conference said
Monday. News tip:...

Gene therapy breakthrough
Feb. 24, 2003
*************************
Scientists have developed a more
effective way to carry out gene
therapy without the risks of current
methods. The technique uses
microbubbles measuring about three
microns, normally injected
intravenously to boost ultrasound
signals. Applying ultrasound causes
the microbubbles to pop, which can...

Scientists identify blood stem cell
Feb. 24, 2003
*************************
Scientists at the Biochip
Technology Center at Argonne
National Laboratory have discovered
monocyte adult stem cells
originating in the blood, a finding
that could lead to an easily
accessible source of cells to treat
diseases. The advantage of the
monocyte stem cells over bone marrow
