Alzheimer's spread through the brain mapped: Infects from neuron to neuron
The inexorable spread of Alzheimer's disease through the brain leaves dead neurons and forgotten thoughts in its wake. Researchers have now shown how toxic proteins are transferred from neuron to neuron.

23:27The energy generated from our oceans could be doubled using new methods for predicting wave power. New research could pave the way for significant advancements in marine renewable energy, making it a more viable source of power. The researchers devised a means of accurately predicting the power of the next wave in order to make the technology far more efficient, extracting twice as much energy as is currently possible.

23:27Researchers have begun to show that it is possible to use brain recordings to reconstruct aspects of an image or movie clip someone is viewing, a sound someone is hearing or even the text someone is reading. A new study brings this work one step closer to actual mind reading by using brain recordings to infer the way people organize associations between words in their memories.

Mars Has "Oceans" of Water Inside
The red planet could have "oceans" locked deep underground—hinting at volcanic origins for water on Mars's early surface, scientists say.

22:38A new study challenges the notion that "a calorie is a calorie." The study finds diets that reduce the surge in blood sugar after a meal -- either low-glycemic index or very-low carbohydrate -- may be preferable to a low-fat diet for those trying to achieve lasting weight loss.
-
22:38In an examination of the effect on energy expenditure and components of the metabolic syndrome of three types of commonly consumed diets following weight loss, decreases in resting energy expenditure and total energy expenditure were greatest with a low-fat diet, intermediate with a low-glycemic index diet, and least with a very low-carbohydrate diet, suggesting that a low-fat diet may increase the risk for weight regain compared to the other diets.

22:38Scientists now have clues to how a gene mutation discovered in families affected with congenital heart disease leads to underdevelopment of the walls that separate the heart into four chambers. A new study suggests that abnormal development of heart cells during embryogenesis may be to blame.

22:38Researchers have identified a mechanism related to RNAi that scans for intruders not by recognizing dsRNA or some other aberrant feature of the foreign sequence, but rather by comparing the foreign sequences to a memory of previously expressed native RNA. Once identified, an "epigenetic memory" of the foreign DNA fragments is created and can be passed on from one generation to the next, permanently silencing the gene.

Facebook Downplays E-Mail Switch Flap
After criticism mounted of Facebook's tendency to opt users in to new features, the social media juggernaut is downplaying this week's addition of a Facebook.com e-mail address on Profiles -- whether people want them or not.The company in November 2010 launched its upgraded e-mail system, giving each user a Facebook e-mail allowing messages not only to other users but to and from other providers and domains.
On Monday, users checking their Profiles found that the address that combines their designated username with Facebook.com was automatically listed, and if they had a different e-mail listed on their Profile, it had been hidden. Many users were quoted in the media, complaining.
'It's Your Call' It's no big deal, a Facebook spokesman told us.
"As we announced back in April, we've been updating addresses on Facebook to make them consistent across our site," he said. "In addition to everyone receiving an address, we're also rolling out a new setting that gives people the choice to decide which addresses they want to show on their Timelines."
Users could change it back through a series of steps: Clicking edit to change, selecting the desired e-mail with "show on Timeline" (or Profile if you haven't been Timelined yet), then selecting the Facebook e-mail as "hidden" and saving changes.
"Ever since the launch of Timeline, people have had the ability to control what posts they want to show or hide on their own Timelines, and we're extending that to other information they post, starting with the Facebook address," said the spokesman.
The latest Facebook controversy does not directly involve privacy issues, unlike the matters that have led the company to recently be sued for using Profile pictures in sponsored messages or investigated by the Federal Trade Commission for what it said were misleading privacy policies.
Any Facebook user could already contact other users, unless they block that feature,...

22:24Optimal stem cell therapy delivery to damaged areas of the heart after myocardial infarction has been hampered by inefficient homing of cells to the damaged site. However, using rat models, researchers in France have used a magnet to guide cells loaded with iron oxide nanoparticles to key sites, enhancing the myocardial retention of intravascularly delivered endothelial progenitor cells.
