...Instead, it was the Big Red that made the most of its special-teams chance early in the second period. With junior Ashley Wheeler in the box for an interference infraction, Cornell sophomore Catherine White put the puck on net. Kessler tried to cover it up, but it bounced right onto the stick of Chelsea Karpenko, who slammed it home...
...question that Caballero thinks we are getting wrong. He believes reforming the U.S. financial system is only part of the answer. Foreign investors, he says, need to change their behavior as well. Specifically, Caballero believes the U.S. needs to encourage foreign governments to hold a range of U.S. investments, instead of just funneling all of their money into say Treasuries or mortgage bonds. One way to do that is to require foreign governments or investors who only buy Treasuries or mortgage bonds to place a certain portion of their U.S. investments in an account at the Federal Reserve. Rather than...
...antibodies against it. Then, if a wild strain of the pathogen comes along later - one that has the power to sicken or kill - the body is ready for it. The new approach is different. Developed by Rhoel Dinglasan, an entomologist and biologist at Johns Hopkins University Hospital, it would instead work within the mosquito gut. (See the top 10 medical breakthroughs...
...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...
Malaria TBVs can be problematic, and not just because none has been perfected yet. People would have to step forward to receive a vaccine that would not make them immune to malaria; they would instead become part of a growing web of people who would eventually push the parasite out of circulation. That complicates the risk-benefit calculus. Every vaccine, after all, can have side effects - in some cases, the possibility of contracting the disease itself. Typically, people are willing to accept that danger because they want the immunity. The AnAPN1 vaccine has been tested in human blood only...
