...goes well with test runs on licensed vaccines for yellow fever and rabies, VaxDesign will begin work on potential AIDS vaccines next year. While critics might argue that MIMIC is too oversimplified to be useful, Koff doesn't agree. "From our point of view, [VaxDesign is] further advanced than anyone in the field in terms of tissue engineering and vaccine design," he says.

...under the most trying conditions. But sport at the highest level is about separating the great from the really good, and some engineering advances have muddied the process. Part of all cars' armory from 2002-'07 was traction control, an electronic aid that kicks in when the rear wheels begin to spin or slide. Say you're driving through a tight corner in the rain. At the midway point you floor the accelerator. Because an F1 car is both ultra-light and ultra-powerful, your action would surely cause the rear wheels to spin and the car to slide...

...slap was felt acutely by everyone at the convention. No more free dinners, shoulder bags, flashlights and pens. Way fewer models in leotards draped across operating tables and traction equipment. A new ruling requires every research presentation to begin with full disclosure of all monetary relationships the speaker has with any company. Every single fully trained doctor I heard speak was getting paid by a company; many of the bigger-name doctors were getting paid by three or four. How much money was still the subject of gossip - the exact amount is not required to be broadcast in these podium...
