...just speculation.”SORE WINNERSIn December, HMS researchers at the CBR Institute for Biomedical Research found they could harness RNA interference (RNAi), an important gene-expression mechanism, to suppress the virus that causes genital herpes.Judy Lieberman, David Knipe, and Deborah Palliser discovered that a 22-base-long strand of RNA, when absorbed by genital cells in mice, can destroy the messenger RNA responsible for expressing the HSV-2 virus, which is carried by over 20 percent of American adults.Lieberman says she hopes that this process can become the basis for a convenient, inexpensive drug that can prevent...
...Dorian Kutos PASS CHRISTIAN, MISS. The morning after the storm, the father and son left their ruined home to await rescue at the nearby beach. Four days later, they were still camped out on the decimated strand, with little more than a tarp and a few bottles of water, desperate for a ride north out of Pass Christian or a working phone to tell relatives they were alive, if not exactly well. "The house was rocking in the wind. I looked out the attic window, and water was approaching fast. I thought we were done...
...immune system to produce antibodies that fight these proteins. In tests that have are detailed in the latest issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, the vaccine significantly diminished plaques on the brains of treated mice. Similar tests on human subjects began about six years ago, using a full aggregated strand of the protein. But this trial was cancelled in 2002 when 6 percent of the patients tested experienced brain inflammation. Ultimately, researchers would like the new vaccine to be tested on humans, according to one of the study’s authors, Cynthia A. Lemere, who is an associate professor...

...each recipient and writes down a few words which an aide reads to her as the person approaches, allowing her to start an informed conversation - one she knows will be repeated to family and friends. (She reads fast and has a flypaper memory.) Dinners during regional trips used to strand her at the top of a long table with predictable dignitaries; now she will be at a round table with perhaps a nurse, the leader of the local Sikh temple and an entrepreneur. Parties at Buckingham Palace are increasingly built around themes, like honoring transport workers and members...
