New receiver technology may allow low-cost broadband speeds of up to 10 Gbps

The new receiver is simpler, cheaper and smaller compared to coherent receivers - requiring just a quarter of the detectors used in conventional receivers.

Floods in central India have tripled since 1950, costs the country $3 billion each year, says study

Violent floods in central India have tripled since 1950, according to researchers who warned on Tuesday of worse to come while offering hope for predicting them better in future.

Using 'satnav' results in switching off parts of the brain making navigation skills worse

Scientists studying what satnavs do to the brain have found that people using them effectively switch off parts of the brain that would otherwise be utilised to simulate different routes and boost navigational skills.

Dolly the sheep's four clones still alive and kicking: study

Debbie, Denise, Dianna and Daisy — identical sisters of Dolly, though born 11 years later — were "in pretty good health", according to researchers.

Researchers have identified protein that may help fight ageing

Researchers say they have identified a protein that acts as a powerful protectant against free radicals which cause cell damage and death, ageing and disease.

'Sensory Substitution Devices' to help the blind see via other senses: Study

Using first-of-the-kind devices, Israeli scientists have mapped brains of the blind to solve how our brains can adapt to the rapid cultural and technological changes of the 21st century.
