- Senior Shoots For Jeopardy College Finals
You'd never know it to watch him now -- master of instant recall and quick-fingered wizard with the signaling button -- but senior Scott Menke is not exactly a lifelong Jeopardy fan. - Johns Hopkins Astrophysicist Elected to National Academy of Sciences
Adam Riess was among 72 scientists elected today to membership in the National Academy of Sciences at the organization's 146th annual meeting, held in Washington, D.C. - President, Three Faculty Members Named AAAS Fellows
President Ronald J. Daniels and three Johns Hopkins University faculty members are among the 210 fellows elected to the 229th class of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. - Six Johns Hopkins Faculty Named Guggenheim Fellows
Six faculty members in the Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts and Sciences at the Johns Hopkins University are among the 180 artists, scholars and scientists who have been named 2009 Guggenheim Fellows by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. - Two Johns Hopkins Educational Researchers Honored
Johns Hopkins University research scientists Joyce Epstein and James McPartland are among 44 scholars who were recently named American Educational Research Association Fellows. - Cool Stars Have Different Mix of Life-Forming Chemicals
Life on Earth is thought to have arisen from a hot soup of chemicals. Does this same soup exist on planets around other stars? Led by a Johns Hopkins University researcher, a new study from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope hints that planets around stars cooler than our sun might possess a different mix of potentially life-forming, or "prebiotic," chemicals. - In Disaster-Prone Areas, Construction Needs a New Approach
In regions that have been devastated by hurricanes and other natural disasters, public officials should pursue a new direction in infrastructure projects, one that focuses on more durable designs and a greater sensitivity to the surrounding environment, a Johns Hopkins researcher says. - Lab-on-a-Chip Homes in on How Cancer Cells Break Free
Johns Hopkins engineers have invented a method that could be used to help figure out how cancer cells break free from neighboring tissue, an "escape" that can spread the disease to other parts of the body. - Undergraduate Tuition to Rise 3.8 Percent Next Year
Tuition for full-time undergraduates at The Johns Hopkins University will increase 3.8 percent next fall, the smallest percentage growth in 35 years for the university's two largest undergraduate schools. - Researcher Seeks to Turn Stem Cells into Blood Vessels
A Johns Hopkins engineer is trying to coax human stem cells to turn into networks of new blood vessels that could someday be used to replace damaged tissue in people with heart disease, diabetes and other illnesses. - New Recipe for Dwarf Galaxies: Start with Leftover Gas
There is more than one way to make a dwarf galaxy, and NASA's Galaxy Evolution Explorer has found a new recipe. It has, for the first time, identified dwarf galaxies forming out of nothing more than pristine gas likely leftover from the early universe. - Phonics is Not Enough to Improve Reading Skills of Young Readers
Reading programs focused on changing daily teaching practices do more to improve children's reading skills than programs focused on textbooks and technology, according to a comprehensive research review by the Johns Hopkins University School of Education's Center for Research and Reform in Education. Simply using books with a stronger emphasis on phonics was not enough to improve reading. - A Better Mesh: Researchers 'Tighten' Body's Protective Coating
A net with large holes won't catch small fish. Likewise, the microscopic fibers in the protective mucus coatings of the eyes, lungs, stomach or reproductive system naturally bundle together and allow the tiniest disease-causing bugs, allergens or pollutants to slip by. But Johns Hopkins researchers have discovered a way to chemically shrink the holes in the mucus layer's netting so that it will keep out more of the unwanted particles. -
Global Warming May Delay Recovery of Stratospheric Ozone
Increasing greenhouse gases could delay, or even postpone indefinitely the recovery of stratospheric ozone in some regions of the Earth, a Johns Hopkins earth scientist suggests. This change might take a toll on public health. - Black History Month at Johns Hopkins University
The Johns Hopkins University's Homewood campus is celebrating Black History Month in February with events organized by the Black Student Union, which is marking its 40th anniversary this year. - Johns Hopkins Astrophysicist Wins Comstock Prize in Physics
Charles L. Bennett, a professor in the Henry A. Rowland Department of Physics and Astronomy at The Johns Hopkins University, has been chosen by the National Academy of Sciences as the winner of the 2009 Comstock Prize in Physics for his groundbreaking work in cosmology. - Five JHU Researchers Named 2008 AAAS Fellows
The Rev. Albert Mosley, a United Methodist minister with degrees from Duke and Yale universities, has become The Johns Hopkins University's new chaplain. The 36-year-old replaces Sharon Kugler, a lay Catholic who left for Yale in 2007. Kugler had served as chaplain at Johns Hopkins since 1993. - Big Ideas for Barack Obama
All eyes are on President-elect Barack Obama during the countdown to Inauguration Day. Reporters seeking an African-American viewpoint for stories about this historic political moment should consider contacting Lester Spence, an assistant professor of political science at The Johns Hopkins University. Spence wants to look beyond Jan. 20 and has drafted a list of his favorite big ideas for the next President. - Wireless Microgrippers Grab Living Cells in 'Biopsy' Tests
In experiments that pave the way for tiny mobile surgical tools activated by heat or chemicals, Johns Hopkins researchers have invented dust-particle-size devices that can be used to grab and remove living cells from hard-to-reach places without the need for electrical wires, tubes or batteries. Instead, the devices are actuated by thermal or biochemical signals. - Johns Hopkins Conference to Mark NAACP Centennial
The Center for Africana Studies at the Johns Hopkins University will be marking the 100th anniversary of the founding of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People with a history conference, Friday, Feb. 6 and Saturday, Feb. 7 on the Homewood campus, 3400 N. Charles St. in Baltimore. The event is free and open to the public. - White House Ceremony Honors Johns Hopkins Materials Scientist
