I have created separate thread where you could comment this new idea:
https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread_thread,29235#283580 Each of the World Community Grid forums have sections: "Interesting news articles about XXX", that have grown to be a huge collection of news about discoveries in research. I thought - let´s apply graphical search technology - and build the search engine using some of the posts used on the WCG forums: http://www.innovation4information.com/EN/grap...arch-demo-redirector.aspx www.innovation4information.com/EN/graphical-biodocument-search-demo-redirector.aspx I would be more than happy to share it/integrate it with WCG! Let me know how to make it useful for research people and generic users. I believe by introducing quick finding option, they would be useful as information source, not only announcements. All comments, problems, ideas, etc. are highly welcome! Thank you, Wojciech |

Protein that predicts prognosis of leukemia patients may also be a therapeutic target
----------------------------------------Researchers at Whitehead Institute and Children's Hospital Boston have identified a protein, called Musashi 2, that is predictive of prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. High levels of Musashi 2 protein is associated with increased cell proliferation, decreased cell maturation, and multiple cancer-related cellular pathways in human leukemias.....

Image-processing algorithm reduces CT radiation dose by as much as 95 percent
Perfusion CT scanning, an emerging imaging technology, got a bad rap last year when a machine set to incorrect radiation levels overdosed hundreds of people in Los Angeles. In the wake of this incident, researchers at the Mayo Clinic, excited by the technology’s promise for diagnosing stroke, cancer, and possibly heart disease, have developed a way to reduce the amount of radiation involved in the procedure — which, when done properly, already involves very little risk..... |
