WASHINGTON — A NASA probe exploring the outer edges of the solar system has helped scientists create the first map of this little-understood region of space 10 billion miles (16 billion kilometers) from Earth.
Glimpses of Solar System's edge: The first results from Nasa's Interstellar Boundary Explorer (Ibex) spacecraft have shown unexpected features at our Solar System's edge.

Status quo won't get NASA to Mars, new chief says
Swimming in water that contains too much bacteria from sewage and other sources is a well-known risk for getting sick. But playing in sand next to that water may be even riskier, a new study finds.
I have noticed that every time I go swimming at ocean beach I seem to get sick soon after... I remember someone telling me in high school that the bay is so polluted that the water has dioxin in it...

Anyone who studied a little genetics in high school has heard of adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine - the A,T,G and C that make up the DNA code. But those are not the whole story. The rise of epigenetics in the past decade has drawn attention to a fifth nucleotide, 5-methylcytosine (5-mC), that sometimes replaces cytosine in the famous DNA double helix to regulate which genes are expressed. And now there's a sixth. In experiments to be published online Thursday by Science, researchers reveal an additional character in the mammalian DNA code, opening an entirely new front in epigenetic research.

Stem cell treatment gives hope to Crohn's disease sufferers
Northern California biotech Geron made history this year when it received FDA approval to test its stem cell therapy in people with spinal cord injuries. Now that the federal ban on using government money to support embryonic stem cell research has been lifted, local scientists hope to see their early stage research reach the clinic, too.
Before the federal government decides on the process for approving applicants, the state will begin loaning money to for-profit biotechs with promising new applications for stem cell research.

FTC to crack down on undisclosed "sponsored" blogging: Do your favorite mom and pop blogs secretly accept cash or gifts in exchange for product mentions? They might, and the FTC wants to make sure they disclose their conflicts of interest with a new set of guidelines that it hopes to implement later this year.

A team of American and Canadian researchers have high hopes for a combination of targeted chemotherapy and what's known as highly active anti-retroviral (HAART) treatments.
