The scientists examined the effects of the radiation on mitochondrial DNA - the tiny energy factories which power cells.
Medivation believes that dimebon helps brain cells work better by improving the function of cellular energy factories called mitochondria.
By contrast, Medivation's lab studies indicate Dimebon may work by protecting mitochondria, key energy factories inside cells that break down as cells die during Alzheimer's, Hung says.
The Department of Energy will soon dispatch teams of energy engineers to the nation's 200 most energy-hungry factories and encourage their owners to follow the engineers' recommendations on reducing juice use.
As they get richer, Chinese and Indians will use more energy to run offices and factories and buy more appliances and cars.
Yet when one considers the need for affordable energy to power our homes and light our factories, only one plan stands a greater chance of success of securing our energy future.
FORBES: Which Candidate's Energy Plan is Better for America?
We keep investing in wind and solar, clean coal technology, farmers and scientists harnessing new biofuels to power our cars and trucks, construction workers building homes and factories that are more energy efficient -- developing a hundred years' supply of natural gas. (Applause.) We can cut our oil imports in half by 2020 and support more than 600, 000 new jobs in natural gas alone.
The path we're offering is to keep investing in wind and solar, clean coal technology, and make sure farmers and scientists are harnessing new biofuels to power our cars and our trucks. (Applause.) Let's put construction workers back to work rehabbing and retrofitting buildings and factories so they waste less energy.
The drop in energy costs in North America will give our factories a competitive edge in global markets.
FORBES: Invest In American Manufacturing? Five Charts For Your Business Decision
Meanwhile, the energy for everything else--offices, factories, homes and data centers is 85% supplied without oil, and most of it is delivered as kilowatt-hours. (Only a vanishingly 2% of electricity is generated by oil.) Once you connect automobiles to the electric grid, you access a trillion-barrel-of-oil-equivalent energy infrastructure almost entirely fueled by domestic sources: coal, uranium, natural gas and hydro dams.
In recent years, Lehman had become a principal underwriter for solar energy companies raising money or financing debt to build factories and solar farms.
If we continue to invest in American potential, I am confident that new plants and factories will dot our landscape and new energy will power our future.
This new, condensed energy allowed them to make steel and build ships and factories.
FORBES: China Thirsts For Energy So It Won't Be Cheap For Us
We have to have big increases in energy efficiency in our homes, in our transportation, in factories and so on.
Because factories are built to manufacture goods, not conserve energy, "most of corporate America uses 20% more energy than it needs to, " says Mobius partner Richard Palmer.
First, distributed energy generation is enabling efficient, decentralized energy production close to the point of use by consumers, integrating energy generation more fully into our homes, offices, and factories.
You're going to hear a little bit about this, because an outfit out in Chicago I went to see if -- I don't mind mentioning a competitor here to one of our folks, Serious Windows in Chicago, where because of increased demand for high-energy windows, they're able to reopen several shuttered factories, re-hire some 200 workers that were laid off by the previous manufacturer, and hire them into multiple states.
While other factors, including a sluggish U.S. economy and increasing energy efficiency, have contributed to the decline in carbon emissions from factories, automobiles and power plants, many experts believe the switch from coal to natural gas for electricity generation has been the biggest factor.

They even have moved beyond energy to own stuff ranging from fast-food chains to dog-food factories.
FuelCell Energy's niche is stationary fuel cells, or those big enough to power offices, factories, homes or even neighborhoods.
As we speak, old factories are reopening to produce wind turbines, people are going back to work installing energy-efficient windows, and small businesses are making solar panels.
