That has been painfully clear to Sosenko in recent weeks. After the collapse of their talks with Provena Hospital, the doctors of MPC, who had pledged to stick it out together, suddenly fractured. The three who haven't been named in either of the lawsuits pending against the practice--Drs. Walsh, Visvanatha Giri and Phillip Leung--created a separate partnership and secured malpractice insurance. Sosenko is planning to take the next couple of weeks off now that his policy has run out and then try to find a new medical group to join. Even so, he says, there...
...sheer non-fiction of the scene in the lab of Drs. Jordan B. Pollack and Hod Lipson at Brandeis gives one a metaphysical chill. Their primitive little creature, offspring of their robot, has one ability only: It crawls. Dr. Lipson tells the New York Times that the robot "walks something like a crab. It looks like it's crawling on the floor." This sounds eerily familiar...
...Atkins, at 69 still the reigning guru of the movement, is back on the charts with Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution. Other low-carb diet books jamming the shelves include The Carbohydrate Addict's Diet and a plateful of spin-offs by Rachael and Richard Heller, Protein Power by Drs. Michael and Mary Eades, Sugar Busters!, The Zone and Suzanne Somers' Get Skinny on Fabulous Foods. Some probably bought the Somers book for the color picture of her licking a butterflied-lamb-slicked finger, but it still became a No. 1 best seller, something her poetry collection (despite Johnny Carson...
Thus a monument to the conquest of polio faithful to the facts would consist of not one man in a white lab coat but two of them glaring at each other. Both Drs. Jonas Salk and Albert Sabin could and did make convincing cases for themselves and pretty good ones against each other too. But since the public usually prefers one hero to two, and since Salk did get there first, he got the monument...
Ashi's deteriorating condition made her eligible for a landmark experiment proposed by researchers at the National Institutes of Health. In September 1990 a team led by Drs. W. French Anderson and R. Michael Blaese extracted T cells from Ashi and exposed them to mouse leukemia viruses into which human ADA genes had been spliced. The viruses, which the researchers had rendered harmless by removing all their genes, invaded the T cells and burrowed into their DNA, carrying the ADA gene with them. Finally, a billion or so of Ashi's T cells, many of them now outfitted with...
