Scientists at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia have come one step closer to developing the first treatment to target a key pathway in lymphoma. The new findings was announced at the AACR Annual Meeting 2012. "It's an exciting time to be involved in lymphoma treatment and research," says...
Jackson Laboratory researchers have demonstrated that a single, targeted x-ray treatment of an individual eye in young, glaucoma-prone mice provided that eye with apparently life-long and typically complete protection from glaucoma. In research published March 19 in the Journal of Clinical...
Researchers from Yale University are looking to a virus from the same family as the rabies virus to fight a form of cancer primarily found in children and young adults. They report their findings in the September 2011 issue of the Journal of Virology. Soft tissue sarcomas are cancers that...
Researchers from New England report in a new study that using a tumor marker, serum CA 19-9, combined with an endoscopic ultrasound if the tumor marker is elevated, is more likely to detect stage 1 pancreatic cancer in a high-risk population than by using the standard means of detection. The...
Report is based on the intelligence gathered through research of public vulnerability disclosures, and the monitoring and analysis of more than 150,000 security events per second during every day of 2010.
I Saw an article about torrents being tracked lately. Like recently recently not last year but this year. And Isn't that illegal like knowing other peoples ip's? (they must know your ip when you got a file being tracked)
Edit: anyone know any piratebay quotes?
