Report Buyer, the online destination for business intelligence for major industry sectors, has added a new report analysing the global market for animal therapeutics and diagnostics.

It will be Earth vs. space in a unique chess match, and you can help Earth win.

NASA's Ames Research Center Friday awarded a contract with a maximum value of $300 million to Stinger Ghaffarian Technologies Inc. (SGT Inc.), of Greenbelt, Md., for intelligent systems research and development support.

University officials say Brother Deitrich Reinhart has cancer in both lungs.

Utah has one of the highest suicide rates in the nation, but that hasn't stopped one woman from trying to stem the tide and spread suicide prevention awareness across the state.

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, describing the need for more troops in Afghanistan, said the United States has achieved "victory" in Iraq.

More than a year after the "stolen vote" controversy erupted in the House, a report published yesterday concluded that the official final result of Roll Call 814 was wrong. However, the select committee investigation, which cost approximately $450,000 including legal

UNITED NATIONS, Sept. 25 -- Faced with a global financial crisis, foreign governments still mustered more than $16 billion in commitments to fund programs to eradicate poverty, fight infectious diseases and put millions of children through primary school, the United

Sen. Ted Stevens, his career and his freedom in jeopardy, did the honorable thing as he went on trial yesterday on corruption-related charges. He blamed his wife.

Republicans, Democrats and outside watchdogs are resigned to the fact that a Loop favorite, that quirky Office of Special Counsel chief Scott J. Bloch , is not going to heed their calls for his resignation before the end of his

The De Beers research and development arm in Johannesburg last week hosted two University of Botswana teams during which members of the faculty of engineering and library services toured the Research and Development and Geo Science laboratories.

The government's audit office says there is no evidence schemes like the attack on "failing" schools work.

The automatic perception of chemical similarities between metabolic reactions is required for a variety of applications ranging from the computer-aided validation of classification systems, to genome-scale reconstruction (or comparison) of metabolic pathways, to the classification of enzymatic mechanisms. Comparison of

Elementary flux modes (EFMs)—non-decomposable minimal pathways—are commonly accepted tools for metabolic network analysis under steady state conditions. Valid states of the network are linear superpositions of elementary modes shaping a polyhedral cone (the flux cone ), which is a well-studied

Recent advances in genotyping technology has made data acquisition for whole-genome association study cost effective, and a current active area of research is developing efficient methods to analyze such large-scale datasets. Most sophisticated association mapping methods that are currently available

Metabolic modelling provides a mathematically rigorous basis for system-level analysis of biochemical networks. However, the growing sizes of metabolic models can lead to serious problems in their construction and validation. In this work, we describe a relatively poorly investigated type

This article considers the problem of estimating population genetic subdivision from multilocus genotype data. A model is considered to make use of genotypes and possibly of spatial coordinates of sampled individuals. A particular attention is paid to the case of

PRODECOMP (projection decomposition) is an implementation of a multi-way decomposition algorithm for the analysis of two-dimensional projections of high-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. The newest version, PRODECOMPv3, features a dramatic speedup, more reliable decompositions, a substantial reduction in memory demands,

Current genotyping algorithms typically call genotypes by clustering allele-specific intensity data on a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) by SNP basis. This approach assumes the availability of a large number of control samples that have been sampled on the same array
