...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?...

...uncoordinated movement? Why the lack of cortical function? And, most importantly, why so hungry?Using his own “brilliant formula” for zombie movies, Schlozman says he can predict the plots of most offspring of “Living Dead.” The similar trajectories of these films tend to begin by introducing “the motley crew of survivors” as an unlikely bunch of heroes. They coincidentally meet in some benign location—a mall, a house, a hospital—after which they “wall up?...

...explores real, personal stories. “This play is less about the death penalty and more about the human experience. People shouldn’t be coming in tense and worried about having an opinion,” says Ragin.Each of the six individuals’ stories contains similar, overlapping themes—such as hope and redemption in the midst of such a trying ordeal—and their individual narratives are knit together in vignettes that follow their respective arrests, interrogation, incarceration, and eventual exoneration. The theatrical presentation of these paralleled stories questions the presence of justice...
