Dinglasan has found an antigen, called AnAPN1, that causes humans to create antibodies that prevent transmission of malaria by mosquitoes. Get enough of these antibodies into mosquitoes, and you lock the disease up there and prevent it from infecting us. Sounds good, but how do you implement such a strategy? You can hardly vaccinate the mosquitoes themselves. Instead, you put the AnAPN1 into their food source: us. A mosquito that bites an inoculated person would pick up the antibodies and then be sidelined from the malaria-transmission game...

Khazei’s extensive work in public service has given him the kind of political experiences he will need to be a true coalition builder in the Senate. Khazei has already reached across the aisle in his attempts to implement a City Year-esque service program on a national level. His devotion to the objectives of Big Citizenship supersedes his commitment to any party platform, and he is the least likely of the Democratic candidates to fall into an ideological lockstep with his party. Khazei’s public-service initiatives have also given him insights into the lawmaking...
