Men who have just had their cancerous prostate gland removed have one pressing question for their doctors: Am I cured? But conventional tests haven’t been sensitive enough to provide a concrete answer. Current tests that measure the level of protein called PSA (prostate-specific antigen), which signals the presence of cancer, often detect no PSA, only to have cancer return in ... Read More »

EIGHT scientists whose discoveries have dramatically expanded human understanding in the fields of astrophysics, nanoscience and neuroscience have been recognised with the award of the million-dollar Kavli Prizes. Jerry Nelson, of the University of California, Santa Cruz, US, Ray Wilson, formerly of Imperial College London and the European Southern Observatory, and Roger Angel, of the University of Arizona, Tucson, US, share the ...

After a decade of rapid advance nanotechnology is now poised to play a central role in fields as diverse as climate change and health care. But there is a danger that a shortage or underuse of facilities for probing nanoscale materials and structures will present a roadblock. Better coordination of these big facilities at national and European level and the ... Read More »
