Washington, Feb 11 – NASA said its New Horizons spacecraft is healthy and operating normally after just over 24 hours in a protective safe mode — the result of a command-loading error that occurred this week. The spacecraft is designed to automatically transition to safe mode under certain anomalous conditions to protect itself from harm.

Scientists create mature heart muscle cells from stem cells
The mature heart muscle cells were created by implanting stem cells from a healthy adult or one with a type of heart disease into newborn rat hearts. The host hearts then give biological signals and chemistry necessary for the implanted immature heart muscle cells to overcome a developmental blockage that usually stops growth.

Johns Hopkins researchers helping in search for elusive cancer causing genes
A group of scientists at Johns Hopkins University is studying various bioinformatics methods to discover the ones that help identify the genetic mutations that encourage tumor cells to thrive in an effort to develop drugs to fight the cancer.
