...Boston area every year since it first appeared in the state in 2000, according to Sam Lipson, the city’s director of environmental health. Lipson said that the development should not dramatically raise concerns about the disease. “A number of factors point to a low risk to humans,” he said. Lipson advised using insect repellent, wearing covering clothing, and eliminating standing water to reduce the risk of virus-transmitting bites. Gary Alpert, Harvard’s entomology officer of environmental health, said an unusually dry August and cooling temperatures, which eliminate potentially...
...still alive and still on a high-fat diet. It would be scientifically unsound to draw general conclusions from her study, says Nebeling, but some experts, such as Boston College's Thomas Seyfried, say it's still a remarkable achievement. Seyfried has long called for clinical trials of low-carb, high-fat diets against cancer, and has been trying to push research in the field with animal studies: His results suggest that mice survive cancers, including brain cancer, much longer when put on high-fat diets, even longer when the diets are also calorie-restricted. "Clinical studies are highly warranted...
...There, in the renowned old research institution in the German southwest, neuro-oncologist Dr. Johannes Rieger wants to enroll patients with glioblastoma and astrocytoma, aggressive brain cancers for which there are hardly any sustainable therapies. Cell culture and animal experiments suggest that these tumors should respond particularly well to low-carb, high-fat diets. And, usually, these patients are physically sound, since the cancer affects only the brain. "We hope, and we have reason to believe, that it will work," says Rieger...

...where the average round was an 86. Junior Ali Bode led the Crimson with a second-place individual finish. Her combined score of 147 was three over par and one only shot behind the tournament’s winner, Hayley Millbourn of Amherst. Her second-round 73 was the low score of the day. “It feels great to be out there with the team again,” Bode said. “We were hitting the ball very straight, which was important for this course.” According to Bode, the course?...
