Harvard's two entries in the draw highlight the impressive skills of sophomore Blake. In the singles draw Blake was seeded No. 2 heading into the tournament and heading into today's quarterfinal match-up with Stanford's Ryan Wolters...
Does this mean that the left frontal and left temporal regions of the brain are responsible for memory formation? A similar study done by James Brewer of Stanford University showed that different areas of the brain are responsible for remembering (and possibly retrieving, although that was not studied) different types of events. In Brewer's experiment, subjects were shown pictures, not words, and greater activity was concentrated in the right frontal and right temporal regions of the brain...
...productivity--that is, output per hour. Productivity is in fact already sliding, as it usually does at this late stage of a business expansion, the increasing computerization of the economy notwithstanding. Even such computer enthusiasts as board members Erik Brynjolfsson, professor of management at M.I.T., and Timothy Bresnahan, a Stanford University economics professor, do not expect the machines to transform productivity that quickly...
...Cover, professor, Stanford: Ted Williams would have generated 19.62 runs per game in 1941 if he had batted in all nine places in the lineup. Babe Ruth would have generated 19.13 runs per game in 1923, but no modern player is close. McGwire is consistently around 13, and Sosa is 8.3 this year...
...Stanford last year a small trial using the dendritic-cell approach cleared two patients of lymphoma and reduced tumor size in two others. Trials elsewhere have produced mixed but still promising results. Researchers have found a way to increase massively the number of dendritic cells ordinarily found in the body, in the hope of amplifying the therapeutic effect. Lyerly and his colleagues achieve their results by infusing patients with their own dendritic cells--after the cells have been encouraged to grow and have been altered in a way that enables them to stimulate a more aggressive immune response...
