...defenses. In this case, though, HIV fools the CD4 receptor into allowing viral particles into the cell. Hovanessian reported last week that his team had found a second receptor, called CD26, that helps the virus enter the cell after it has attached itself to CD4. If Hovanessian is correct, scientists might be able to devise drug treatments that block access to the CD26 receptor -- and thus prevent infection...
...been addressed by any one of a series of federal boards. Perhaps the best was a presidential commission established under President Carter that developed broad policy guidelines on some of the most controversial issues in medicine, such as deciding when brain death has occurred or when it is ethically correct for a doctor to withhold treatment.

At Harvard, the same basic tools of management apply. In the end, values which are crucial to a healthy learning environment--openness, honesty, aggressive action in pedagogical crises--often suffer...
