...further x-factor in the study: What if teens weren't being honest in their self-reports about risky behavior? Berns' team addressed this question by drug-testing the 91 research subjects. Only nine had actually done drugs - in each case, marijuana - but eight of those nine admitted their drug use in the survey. No students who tested negative falsely claimed to have tried drugs. The teen brain, it appears, can be often an honest thing - even if it's not always a wise...
...survive the attack by the immune system, then the next step would be to return the functional beta cells, generated through strategies like the one used by Melton, back into the patients from whom the original skin cells came. But even that won't happen until more testing is done on the cells to ensure they are both safe and effective...
...different perspectives, but that the review panel would help bring the discussion to a higher, more constructive level. City Councilor Craig A. Kelley said that the panel would have to delicately examine the racial and class undertones of the arrest. “When it’s all done...I don’t want people to look at it and say it was a waste of money, a whitewashing,” Kelley said. “We want people to say we had a thorough discussion, an honest review.

...years. The gifted teacher may burn out. Scholarly productivity is more likely to endure. My experience as a faculty member at a non-Harvard medical school gives credence to the concept. However, I still think that “Dr. R.” could have done both...
...cost prototype robot based on feedback given by humanitarian deminers. The robot was to be used to perform area reduction in uncharted territory. Area reduction is the first phase of any demining project where a large area is reduced to smaller plots of suspected regions. Since area reduction is done in lands abandoned for decades, current techniques require deminers to cut and burn the vegetation. Our effort was to develop a low-cost robotic platform that could assist in area reduction while eliminating the need to damage vegetation. Since moving through tropical vegetation is extremely challenging for a robotic platform...
