...more unseemly rivalries to sully the scientific community in decades. Squaring off across the Atlantic, amid charges, countercharges and growing anger, are researchers at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md., and at the Pasteur Institute in Paris. At issue: who was first to isolate the virus that causes AIDS and first to develop a blood-screening test to detect AIDS infection. At stake: national pride, possibly a Nobel Prize and perhaps millions of dollars in patent royalties on the blood test...
Shortly before Essex revealed his discovery, a group of French and Portuguese researchers announced a related finding. At a conference in Lisbon, Dr. Luc Montagnier of Paris' Pasteur Institute disclosed that his team too had found a missing-link virus, apparently closer to the simian virus than it is to the human AIDS strain. As in Essex's study, the new virus was found in the blood of West Africans -- in this case, two men from Guinea-Bissau, which borders Senegal. Both men, however, were suffering from the symptoms of AIDS. "It seems to be the same disease; there...
...people who smoke want to, but Skinner would ask, why do they want to? Since Pasteur, we no longer believe in the spontaneous generation of life, yet we still believe in the spontaneous generation of thoughts and feelings. Thoughts and feelings, though, have a physical basis--the brain. And the brain is changed by our every interaction with the environment. We want to, then, because of some unique personal history of interaction with the environment...

Research programs elsewhere have made some advances that are only now reaching the U.S. Last week the Food and Drug Administration approved HPA-23, a potential anti-AIDS drug developed at Paris' famed Pasteur Institute, for testing on humans in the U.S. This antiviral compound has previously been used to treat several dozen American AIDS sufferers, including Hudson, who entered experimental programs in Paris. While it proved ineffective in Hudson's case, HPA-23 has been credited with at least temporarily slowing the replication of the AIDS virus in some others. In no known case, however, has it completely cured...
