...fall. Le Whiff, a mini inhaler that sprays the taste of chocolate without actually imparting anything caloric, is now on the market. Developed by Professor David Edwards and some of his students from Engineering Sciences 147, Le Whiff is one product of Harvard research that makes FlyBy think, "What? Cool! Why?" The answers, after the jump...
...teaches two Visual and Environmental Studies classes as a visiting professor: “Objects and Environments” and “Spatial Poetics.” In addition, as the Marshall S. Cogan Visiting Artist in the Office for the Arts public art program, Biggers is conducting research for a temporary installation on the Harvard campus next semester. The project, he says, is “top secret” for now, but it will likely include participation from members of the Harvard community.Interactive art is no new endeavor for Biggers. The objects in Biggers?...
...Paris, while his roommate, Evan R. Czaplicki ’12, will live in the same city on only $1,500. “That covers plane tickets, essentially,” Czaplicki said. Both students said that their summer plans—for Milewski, work in a neurological research lab at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie, and for Czaplicki, language study at Columbia University’s Parisian campus—were entirely contingent upon receiving grant money. They also characterized their experience with the OIP as more confusing than constructive, with Czaplicki explaining...
...guide” are thick with allusions to forgotten female poets and obscure psychedelic rock bands. It’s hard to read them without wanting to know more, especially with little prior knowledge of Codrescu’s main focus: the 1920s cultural movement Dada.But further research only confounds points that Codrescu seemingly asserts with authority.

...team of Harvard researchers have identified a potential method for treating Huntington’s disease that might shed light on treatments for similar neurodegenerative diseases. The team—led by scientists at the Harvard-affiliated MassGeneral Institute For Neurodegenerative Disease (MGH-MIND)—identified a novel mechanism of clearing disease-causing mutant huntingtin protein from brain cells by modifying the protein structure for autophagic degradation, a natural degradation process in cells. The introduction of a specific molecular fragment known as an acetyl group into the mutant proteins—a process also known as acetylation?...
