Superconductivity turns 10; a decade after their discovery, compounds that superconduct electricity at high temperatures (HTS) are making it into real-world devices - but still, no one can prove how they work
Article Abstract:
Researchers attending the 10th Anniversary HTS Workshop on Physics, Materials, and Applications discussed accomplishments in high temperature superconductivity research in the 10 years since Alexander Muller and Georg Bednorz reported their discovery of HTS in lanthanum-barium-copper-oxide.

Making cells selectively sticky
Article Abstract:
Researchers have developed a method that uses a cell's own biochemical machinery to modify its surface sugars. The process attaches ketones to the outermost sugar on the cell membrane. It has applications in guiding cancer drugs to targeted cells.

Making modular memories
Article Abstract:
Research on brain function indicates that separate areas in the prefrontal cortex are responsible for recalling different aspects of an image. The discovery suggests that working memory is formed in a parallel way.
