(Nanowerk News) The silver used by Beth Gwinn’s research group at UC Santa Barbara has value far beyond its worth as a commodity, even though it’s used in very small amounts. The group works with the ...

For some tumor entities, however, classical cytogenetics has been less successful because of the complexity of karyotypes or difficulty of culturing tumor cells in vitro. Chromosomal comparative ...

Using customized DNA arrays to assess the activity of 4,500 different genes in a leukemic form of lymphoma known as Sezary syndrome, researchers at The Wistar Institute have identified 385 genes that ...

In today's issue of Science, researchers at the Whitehead Institute and Corning Inc. describe a new microarray technique that can decipher the function of master switches in a cell by identifying the ...

Microarrays present researchers with something of a catch-22: In order to find something, you have to know what you're looking for. If you're looking for new functional elements, your microarray needs ...

Since the advent of DNA testing, law enforcement agencies have been able to prosecute crimes — and exonerate the wrongly convicted — with greater certainty than ever before. Though not perfect, ...
