...researchers think that the plaque deposition may be seen as a traumatic event that is causing these intercellular calcium waves, providing a new line for Alzheimer’s therapy. “Modulating the activity of astrocytes might be an interesting therapeutic target slightly different than the neurocentric view,” said Kuchibhotla. Since this research can be applicable to other diseases—including Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, and Lou Gehrig’s disease—Bacskai and researchers at MIND are in the process of using these imaging techniques to study...
...stem cell researchers, who are dispersed across Boston, have long envisioned a unified research space in Allston, a dream that University Provost Steven E. Hyman has sought to turn into a reality. But that effort has come at a cost. Some researchers in the MCB department have come to view the Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology department (SCRB) as the administration’s favorite child—a pet project initiated by Summers and loyally continued into the present by Hyman, according to one MCB professor.“They will go to extremes to make Stem Cell happy...

"Europe is not a threat to the United States, so it does not impose itself on the agenda," he says. "By contrast, China is at the top of the agenda because it is funding so much in America, and the priority at the moment is the economic crisis.
