1. Hinode mission delves into solar mysteries
   12-06-2007 · EurekAlert!
   New, peer-reviewed results from the Hinode space mission ("Sunrise" in English) should help explain some long-standing mysteries of the Sun, such as the huge temperature difference between its relatively cool surface and its white-hot atmosphere, and the origins of the solar wind that blasts through the solar system and buffets planetary atmospheres. These findings appear in a special collection of 10 articles, by scientists in Japan, Europe and the United States, in the Dec. 7 issue of the journal Science.

   11-09-2007 · EurekAlert!
   A study, funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, and conducted by biologists at the University of Reading and computer scientists at the University of Cardiff, has revealed large gaps in data available to the Global Biodiversity Information Facility -- the world's largest single data network which gives access to millions of current digitised biodiversity records. The paper was published in the Nov. 7 issue of the online, open-access journal PLoS ONE.

6. Qubits poised to reveal our secrets
   09-12-2007 · EurekAlert!
   Two research groups have finally built quantum computers capable of running Shor's algorithm -- a mathematical routine capable of breaking the most common encryption systems that protect our banking and business. Cryptographers are split between believing the computers are nowhere near ready to pose a threat to the world's data while others believe that cryptography will now be forced to move on from prime-number-based encryption technologies.

7. Study reveals improved prediction of prostrate cancer
   01-30-2008 · EurekAlert!
   Scientists are another step closer to understanding why some people suffer from life-threatening diseases such as cancer. Research published in the new online open access journal BMC Medical Genomics reveals a model that may enable more accurate prediction of the risk of prostate cancer progression. By combining the Gleason score (a pathological score given to prostate cancer based on its microscopic appearance) with structured data from biomarker assessments, the researchers have developed a model for predicting the likelihood of prostate cancer virulence.

10. Picky eating potentially perilous for bats
    07-24-2007 · EurekAlert!
    Working in the Department of Ecology and Organismal Biology, Justin Boyles and Jonathan Storm examined the possibility of a link between dietary specialization and the risk of extinction for bats in Australia, Europe and North America. Their study, published in the July 25 edition of the online, open-access journal PLoS ONE, indicates that "species of conservation concern often have a more specialized diet than common species," said Boyles.
