Fresh off its first victory at Penn in 18 years, the Harvard men’s basketball team broke another streak, albeit a smaller one. The Crimson beat Columbia for the first time in six games, 72-63, Friday night at Lavietes Pavilion behind a balanced team attack, avenging a last second loss to the visitors two weeks ago. Junior guard Jeremy Lin and freshman forward Keith Wright tied for a game-high 14 points to lead four players in double figures for the Crimson as it pulled away midway through the second half, then held off the Lions?...

These licensing policies for global access cost a negligible amount because markets in developing countries generate so little revenue. The benefits of these policies are significant: potentially life-saving interventions for millions of patients...

Its 8-of-11 shooting in the first half helped keep the team in the game, as it trailed just 29-27 despite making only eight field goals. Guard Noruwa Agho had 13 to lead the Lions and backcourt mate Niko Scott added 12 before leaving with a foot injury in the second half...
