Scientists decode human genome`s instruction manual
. 'Epigenome' maps how genes work together. Hope of new drugs to treat cancer and schizophreniaAlmost a decade after the human genome project lay bare the building blocks of life, scientists have figured out how they work together to create a living person.The genome project identified about 25,000 genes that are needed to make a healthy human being, but said nothing about how they combine to produce everything from hearts and minds to legs and livers.Now researchers in California have published what is effectively the first manual to show how genes are orchestrated inside cells - a milestone that promises to revolutionise scientists' understanding of human development and how it can sometimes go wrong.Many scientists believe the work will lead to new treatments for life-threatening diseases such as cancer, and possibly mental disorders such as schizophrenia.The work is also expected to shed light on intriguing studies that suggest how we live today can have striking repercussions for

Quantum-limited Measurement Method for Nanosensors
(PhysOrg.com) -- (PhysOrg.com) -- A team of scientists from the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and the Ludwig Maximilians University have succeeded in applying a novel optical method to nano-mechanical oscillators. New fabrication techniques have enabled the development of on-chip mechanical elements whose dimensions are on the nanometer scale. Their application, however, has been limited by the lack of sufficiently sensitive techniques for measuring the motion of these tiny devices.

Smile! It Could Make You Happier
We smile because we are happy, and we frown because we are sad. But does the causal arrow point in the other direction, too? A spate of recent studies of botox recipients and others suggests that our emotions are reinforced--perhaps even driven--by their corresponding facial expressions.Charles Darwin first posed the idea that emotional responses influence our feelings in 1872. “The free expression by outward signs of an emotion intensi­fies it,” he wrote. The esteemed 19th-cen­tury psychologist William James went so far as to assert that if a person does not express an emotion, he has not felt it at all. Although few scientists would agree with such a statement today, there is evidence that emotions in­volve more than just the brain. The face, in particular, appears to play a big role. [More]

Was Darwinopterus the Pterosaur ``Missing Link?``
There were some big differences between the pterosaurs of the Jurassic period and their Cretaceous descendants: the earlier flying reptiles tended to be tiny, small-beaked and long-tailed, while later behemoths like Pteranodon and Quetzalcoatlus had enormous beaks and wingspans, relatively short tails, and could occasionally walk as well as fly. Now, a research team at the University of Leicester in England has announced the existence of what may have been a transitional pterosaur, Darwinopterus ('Darwin wing,' named after the discoverer of the theory of evolution). Why is Darwinopterus (over 20 fossils of which have been found in northeastern China) considered to be a transitional form? Well, according to reconstructions by the English team, this pterosaur had an unusually large head and beak, but a relatively puny body with a long (i.e., primitive) tail. As one of the scientists is quoted as saying in this National Geographic article, Darwinopterus 'is a really cool creature, becaus
