Devices producing ionizing radiation are used today in medicine, industry, agriculture, military and scientific research. Sometimes, however, human error or equipment failure may cause of accidental radiation exposure of a worker. Dr Maria Kowalska and MA Monika Szymanska from the Central Laboratory for Radiological Protection in Warsaw (CLOR), are able to determine radiation dose absorbed few weeks earlier. 2010-09-03 03:23 It is possible that soon, in order to find out whether we are being attacked by flu virus, or just minor cold, we will only have to do a 5-10 minute test? Dawid Nidzworski from the UG-GUMed Intercollegiate Faculty of Biotechnology is close to developing a biosensor for this purpose. For its development the researcher received a grant under the "Ventures" programme of the Foundation for Polish Science (FNP). 2010-09-01 03:11 Microspheres containing yttrium isotope may help patients with advanced, unresectable liver cancers. Although the method has been available in Poland for over a year, still very few patients and even doctors know about it - said Dr Jarosław B. Ćwikła, MD, from Warsaw CSK MSWiA hospital. 2010-08-27 06:42 The Team of young scientists from the Department of Biophysics, Jagiellonian University (UJ), has made a spectacular discovery explaining previously not understood mechanisms related to cellular system of energy transfer and protection against free radicals. Results of the team’s work, considered extremely significant for understanding the processes of energy transfer in biological systems, have been published in one of the most prestigious scientific journals in the world - "Science." 2010-08-27 04:29 Three students of neurocognitivistics at the Warsaw School of Social Sciences and Humanities (SWPS) are improving the operation of brain-computer interface - the latest technology for direct human communication with external devices without muscle involvement. For their research they recently received a grant under the "Ventures" programme of the Foundation for Polish Science (FNP). 2010-08-26 11:19 Pediatric surgeon Dr Adam Bysiek with his team at the University Children's Hospital in Krakow-Prokocim performed world’s first operation of restoring gullet continuity with the use of magnets in 17-month-old child. 2010-08-18 02:17 Department of Molecular Virology (KWM), University of Gdansk Faculty of Biotechnology is working with European laboratories on a vaccine against the HCV virus causing hepatitis C, which leads to cirrhosis or liver cancer. A vaccine against HCV does not yet exist. 2010-08-16 02:17 Researchers from the Jagiellonian University (UJ) are researching whether modified Salmonella bacteria would be helpful in treating cancer. It is already known that the bacteria are effective in combating cancerous cells in mice. The study was one of the projects awarded in this year's competition Polish Product of the Future. 2010-08-09 00:51 As part of his doctoral thesis, Mateusz Moderhak from the Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics, Gdańsk University of Technology, is developing a modern method of diagnosing breast cancer using thermal methods. With this method, changes can be registered several years earlier than it is possible using standard tests.
2010-07-30 03:19 Work continues on created in the Department of Microelectronics and Computer Science of Łódź University of Technology system for monitoring the progress of treatment of strokes on the basis of speech analysis, which was awarded the Grand Prix at the 58th International Trade Fair & Exhibition Brussels Innova 2009. The solution has a chance for implementation in Polish hospitals. 2010-07-29 00:08 << < 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 > >> |
