Prompt Proofing Blog Post: Book Review on The Art of Hearing Heartbeats by Jan-Philipp Sendker

2012-08-24

This book - excellently translated from the original German - reads almost like poetry in prose, the language is so well utilized. And that is just one reason to give this one a read. Following a plot that takes us from modern day New York City to pre-WWII rural Burma, the narrative is complex yet enthralling, and although your mind will be frantically trying to put all the pieces together to come up with the overall picture, it's really best to sit back and exercise some patience while the book does it for you, as the resulting image will be infinitely better. It's ...

Novel technique to synthesize nanocrystals that harvest solar energy

2012-08-24

One reason that solar energy has not been widely adopted is because light absorbing materials are not durable. Materials that harvest solar radiation for energy often overheat or degrade over time; this reduces their viability to compete with other renewable energy sources like wind or hydroelectric generators. A new video protocol addresses these issues by presenting a synthesis of two inorganic nanocrystals, each of which is more durable than their organic counterparts. The article, published in Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE), focuses on the liquid phase synthesis ...

Learning 1 of cancer's tricks

2012-08-24

PASADENA, Calif.— Behaving something like ravenous monsters, tumors need plentiful supplies of cellular building blocks such as amino acids and nucleotides in order to keep growing at a rapid pace and survive under harsh conditions. How such tumors meet these burgeoning demands has not been fully understood. Now chemists at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have shown for the first time that a specific sugar, known as GlcNAc ("glick-nack"), plays a key role in keeping the cancerous monsters "fed." The finding suggests new potential targets for therapeutic ...

More clues about why chimps and humans are genetically different

2012-08-24

Ninety-six percent of a chimpanzee's genome is the same as a human's. It's the other 4 percent, and the vast differences, that pique the interest of Georgia Tech's Soojin Yi. For instance, why do humans have a high risk of cancer, even though chimps rarely develop the disease? In research published in September's American Journal of Human Genetics, Yi looked at brain samples of each species. She found that differences in certain DNA modifications, called methylation, may contribute to phenotypic changes. The results also hint that DNA methylation plays an important role ...

March Madness brings September students

2012-08-24

Whether you call it the Flutie Effect or the Jimmer Bump, a banner year in NCAA men's basketball or football is followed by a flood of prospective students. Economists at Brigham Young University and the University of Chicago studied where students chose to send their SAT scores. Universities received approximately 10 percent more scores from prospective students following a stellar sports season. Initially, these surges are fueled by certain types of students: out-of-staters, males, black students and those who played sports in high school. But teams who advance to ...
