The science complex will house the Medical School’s Systems Biology Department—an institute for bioengineering primarily funded by a $125 million gift from Harvard Business School graduate Hansjörg Wyss—the Harvard Stem Cell Institute, and the Stem Cell Regenerative Biology Department, a joint venture between...
...living conditions for the five detainees change because of the ruling? We've asked to have them moved to the least confined location at Guantanamo - still inside the prison complex, but in a barracks with good recreational opportunities.
