 Like a 1950's Detroit automaker, it
appears that nature prefers to build its proteins around a solid,
sturdy chassis. A new study combining advanced computational
modeling and cutting-edge experiments by molecular biologists at Rice
University and Baylor College of Medicine suggests that the most stable
parts of a protein are also the parts that fold first. The findings appear in the Sept. 13 issue of the journal Structure.

 Scientists from University of Michigan looked to ferns to create a novel energy
scavenging device that uses the power of evaporation to move
itself --- materials that could provide a method for powering micro and
nano devices with just water or heat.

 On 8th September 2006, the journal Science published a paper showing
how MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) had revealed how a patient in a vegetative state seemed capable
of understanding and responding to certain commands. Mass media
attention ensued, triggering an important debate regarding how medicine
should or should not treat such patients given that this particular
patient was apparently conscious yet outwardly unconscious and
unresponsive.

 Researchers at Purdue University have created a simulation that uses
scientific principles to study in detail what likely happened when a
commercial airliner crashed into the World Trade Center's North Tower
on Sept. 11, 2001.
