...seen fit to take the age-old tale of the Prince of Denmark and set it in late '90s New York City. While we've seen a narcissistic Hamlet, a visceral Hamlet and a verbose Hamlet, now we have the young prince in a world of laptops and limousines, cellular phones and c-notes, Mercedes and martinis. Elsinore is an apartment building, Denmark is a financial concern, Fortinbras attempts a hostile takeover and Ethan Hawke plays the title role...
...part of this change, both departments will also make significant modifications to the introductory classes taught by the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology (MCB) and the Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology...
...sponsors of the conference included the Departments of Physics, Mathematics, Molecular and Cellular Biology, Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Psychology and Women's Studies; University Health Services; Kaplan; the Harvard College Observatory; the Institute of Politics; and the Ann Radcliffe Trust...
Muscles process oxygen through cellular components known as the mitochondria. Human mitochondria take up only about 3% of the space in a cell. But in animals that run the fastest, mitochondria are far bigger; the mitochondria of an antelope--an animal that easily runs a 2-min. mile and does so in wispy mountain air 7,000 ft. up--are three times larger than ours. "If you could genetically engineer humans to have more mitochondria, bigger hearts and more blood vessels," says Weyand, "we might run about 40 m.p.h...
...already developed a way to equip a benign virus with genetic material that codes for muscle growth, and they have injected the virus into mice. The animals quickly bulk up by as much as 20%, becoming not just bigger but stronger. The researchers have developed other techniques to block cellular signals that would otherwise cause muscles to atrophy, allowing the new mass to be retained even without exercise...
