Stefan Finsel, Randy Oliver. Psiram » Bienensterben, Neonicotinoide und die F... - 0 views

  •  
    "Sehr lesenswert sind unserer Meinung nach die Artikel des Biologen und Bienenexperten Randy Oliver, der ein regelmäßiger Autor im American Bee Journal ist. Auf seiner Homepage "Scientific Beekeeper" findet man zwei hochinteressante Artikel, auf die wir an dieser Stelle verweisen möchten: Neonicotinoids: Trying To Make Sense of the Science Neonicotinoids: Trying To Make Sense of the Science - Part 2 Er listet viele Studien zum CCD und zu Neonicotinoiden und schreibt, dass etliche mit einer gehörigen Portion Voreingenommenheit in die eine oder andere Richtung behaftet sind. Manche spielen die Wirkung der Neonicotinoide hinunter, andere versuchen zu beweisen, dass diese Giftstoffe die zentrale Schuld am Bienensterben tragen. In einem spannenden Artikel von April 2013, bei dem er sich vor allem damit auseinandersetzt, was "dieses Frühjahr mit den Bienen geschah", vergleicht er die Bienenverluste mit der Verwendung von Neonicotinoiden. Er findet dabei eine Korrelation von 2006 bis 2009, aber 2010 dreht sich der Trend: mehr Neonicotinoide als im Vorjahr werden eingesetzt und wesentlich weniger Bienen verenden"

A better genetic test for autism - 2 views

    "A large study from Children's Hospital Boston and the Boston-based Autism Consortium finds that a genetic test that samples the entire genome, known as chromosomal microarray analysis, has about three times the detection rate for genetic changes related to autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) than standard tests. Publishing in the April issue of Pediatrics (and online March 15), the authors urge that CMA become part of the first-line genetic work-up for ASDs."

Scientists create stable, self-renewing neural stem cells - 1 views

    ScienceDaily (Apr. 26, 2011) - In a paper published in the April 25 early online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine, the Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco and colleagues report a game-changing advance in stem cell science: the creation of long-term, self-renewing, primitive neural precursor cells from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) that can be directed to become many types of neuron without increased risk of tumor formation.

New Particle Collider Operating in Secret - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  • "We may not have created a black hole, but it seems we may have discovered a way for elementary particles to shape the path of evolution. You just never know what you are going to find"

      I am no arbiter of humour, but I think this April Fool prank is fairly lame (unless there is truth in the unlikely twitter rumour that the NYT was pranked)
