Synoviorthesis or Radiosynovectomy is the medical removal of the swollen lining of the joint. A radiosynovectomy is the injection of a small amount of radioactive substance into the joint. This procedure is similar to joint aspiration, but a substance is injected rather than fluid being drawn out.
The chemical substance destroys the swollen synovial tissue, which reduces pain and swelling, and decreases the frequency of acute bleeds. The radionuclides are injected in colloidal form…

4 years PhD position
Deadline for Application:
20th of May 2009
One of the holy grails is to obtain nondestructive, real-space subsurface information on the nanometer length scale. This information is critical for numerous applications in material science and biological systems, as would support measuring buried and embedded structures (see [1]). Examples are damages in stacked structures in microelectronics and nuclei of…

Dear TINC,
Thank You! Thank You!! Thank You!!! for participating in the Inaugural Science Festival
We finished our Inaugural Science Festival with BANG at the Expo Day in Balboa Park.
The news reported over 50,0000 people (a bit more than our first-year goal of 15,000) attended our Science EXPO Day in Balboa park bringing the tally for the whole month to above 200,000 attendees. The police actually CLOSED Balboa Park.…

Long-term robotic probe or manned human space flight will require special strategies, to prevent electronic equipment failures or health risks. New materials will be needed to wrap a safety factor around the capsule or probe. New innovative power and propulsion systems will be needed for unlimited durations, something that we still have not completely perfected.
One interesting proposal set forth by the online…
