...found in sufferers of Lou Gehrig’s disease, also known as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. A significant amount of previous research into nerve diseases such as Lou Gehrig’s has focused primarily on neurons as a source of disease, but the researchers cite their results as proof that non-neuron cells merit serious investigation. “Can you imagine what would be the fate of an individual that grew up in a bad neighborhood?” said Columbia researcher Serge Przedborski, drawing a parallel between crime-ridden areas and cellular environments. “What...

Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page unseated MSN and Yahoo with a mere algorithm—proof of the economy’s democratic nature. Tech fortunes just seem less exploitative, built on mainframes and lines of code rather than the backs of unskilled laborers...
