23.11.2009Gene therapy against HIV/AIDS success inspires
The technique developed by scientists at the California Institute of Technology was called "opacity suppression by optical reversal of the wavefront" (turbidity suppression by optical phase conjugation, TSOPC).
15.02.2008Rusnano-2015: rainbow nanoprospects
Rusnano Group has reached its design capacity and intends to repay debts to the state by 2015. However, according to the expert of IC Finam Alexey Kurasov, by 2015 the Russian nanoindustry will amount to about 1.5% of the world, i.e. there will be no breakthrough.
21.09.2009Stem cells: waste – to income!

27.08.2009Two more multiple sclerosis genes
After the discovery of the location of the genes responsible for the development of multiple (multiple) sclerosis, scientists plan to create accurate genetic maps and identify the molecular mechanisms of gene action.
16.06.2009Diagnosis by photo, treatment by phone... and no quackery!
The quality of medical examinations conducted at a distance with the help of modern means of communication is not much inferior to real visits of doctors.
18.05.2009Cancer diagnosis and treatment: "4-in-1" nanoparticles
The researchers connected fluorescent dye, RNA fragments and peptide fragments to iron oxide nanoparticles. The task of peptides is to identify tumor cells, RNA fragments suppress the work of a number of genes characteristic of cancer cells, killing them. Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles play the role of contrast for MRI, and fluorescent dye allows you to observe cancer cells using microscopy.
14.05.2009"The formula of diseases"
In the future, the authors believe, the schemes they have created will be used in everyday medical practice: for example, during an examination, a doctor will be able to obtain information about all the patient's diseases, related diseases and – in the future – a set of genes responsible for their development.
