About 10 years ago, scientists started identifying certain proteins, called growth factors, that the body uses to build new blood vessels. The proteins act like foremen at a construction site, making sure that all the pieces of the project come together smoothly. Animal experiments showed that there were several ways to get growth factors into the heart. You could inject a gene--either by itself or wrapped in a viral envelope--that tells the heart muscle how to make growth factor. Or you could skip the gene and just...

Why are students allowed, and even encouraged, to spend 10 nights each fall building what amounts to a giant campfire, despite the fact that there have been at least two bonfire-related fatalities...
