Video Linkage 2/3: Nano-Discs and Gunfights

Posted at 3:40 pm CT on February 3, 2010

Very busy today, so please forgive the light posting.

In December, we wrote about a unique collaboration between Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago Medical Center to fight brain tumors with microscopically tiny gold nano-discs. ABC-7-Chicago recently ran a story on that research which you can watch below:

And if you have time for two science videos today, enjoy this neurobiological explanation of why the good guys always win gunfights in old Westerns. (from the University of Birmingham)
