...Marco F. Ramoni said he first explored predicting stroke risk after observing a high rate of strokes in a 2005 sickle-cell anemia study he conducted. That began a collaboration with Karen L. Furie, Mass. General’s director of stroke service, who was instrumental in providing the raw data needed to construct the Bayesian model. “We’re fortunate Karen had been collecting this data,” said Rachel L. Ramoni, an instructor at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine who worked on the study. “She had an ongoing study...

The song begins with constant guitar tremolo and quick, brushed cymbal strokes, feeling like an orchestrated locomotive marching lazily through the countryside. Once Case enters with her famed pathos, the train never stops rolling. The song?...

"While it is unthinkable," he said, "... the people do have the raw power" to make whatever changes they desire, so long as they do not alter the basic structure of government. Changes that violate the U.S. Constitution, he added, would of course be struck down on federal grounds, but so far no federal appellate court has ruled that the U.S. constitution protects...
