...Harvard and its students envision a world in which global access to new medicines is determined more by human need than by economic imperative. No potentially life-saving technology invented at Harvard should go undeveloped or remain inaccessible for want of creative thinking on our part. As a recipient of government funding for research, Harvard is committed to fulfill its responsibility of public service to advance our mission by means of a vigorous and effective technology transfer program. In heading this program at Harvard’s Office of Technology Development, I have seen OTD become a leader in crafting...
...researching profiles. Profiles without some degree of self-censorship are becoming increasingly rare, but some people still aren’t cottoning on; when my brother interviewed a few prospective Harvard freshmen this year, he was surprised to see that they hadn’t bothered to restrict access to their profile, allowing him full view of information that did not reflect well upon them...

Murphy said the state would first tap into funds allocated by Obama’s national stimulus package to cover spending in the next fiscal year, only resorting to the “rainy day” fund if the recession persists...
Such a study appears to suggest at least one promising avenue of confronting youth obesity—changing zoning laws to prevent fast-food restaurants from opening near schools. By reducing access to unhealthful foods, schools can at least promote nutritious choices during school hours. Indeed, there is precedent within schools themselves, where soft drinks have often been eliminated from vending machines and more healthful options have been introduced in the school cafeterias...
