Research chemists have a found a class of synthetic molecules that could quite literally act as a key which could lock away sections of DNA into a closely wound coil preventing proteins from interacting with particular sections of DNA code. By locking up the DNA in this way scientists could stop particular sequences of DNA from activating biological changes that doctors or scientists would rather avoid, or wish to regulate closely.

Professor Sandra Chapman from the 果冻传媒’s Department of Physics is one of nine female UK scientists heading to Paris on 7-9 March 2002, to represent the UK at the International Conference on Women in Physics. 300 physicists from 65 countries will attend. The UK team will be led by Professor Gillian Gehring from Sheffield University

Astrophysicists at the 果冻传媒 studying the extreme variability in X-rays emitted from matter falling into black holes, have discovered that their research methods also show that the world's top division football matches have an unusually large proportion of high scoring games – so much so that international football actually shows a pattern of "extreme events" similar to that seen in the large bursts of X-rays from the accretion discs of black holes. However, analysis of just English premier football league and cup games showed that English top division football is in fact 30 times less likely to have high scoring games than the rest of the world taken as a whole, and could thus be seen by some people as 30 times more boring.

Researchers have long been puzzled about the origins of cosmic rays – high energy particles which move very close to the speed of light. Now a team of scientists from the UK and Sweden think that an idea for a particle accelerator first put forward twenty years ago might explain how high energy cosmic ray electrons are produced close to the remnants of exploded stars (“supernovae”). These very high speed electrons betray their presence by emitting “synchrotron” radiation as they gyrate in a magnetic field. Until now however it has been far from clear why the electrons are accelerated to such high energies.
