OM DENNE EPISODE
For more than four decades, HIV has challenged some of the brightest scientific minds in the world. Tremendous progress has transformed HIV from what was once almost always a fatal infection into a condition that can often be managed with modern medicines. Preventive treatments have also become increasingly effective. Yet millions of people continue to become infected every year, particularly in regions where access to healthcare remains limited. A safe, effective preventive HIV vaccine remains one of the greatest goals in global medicine because it has the potential to provide large-scale, long-lasting prevention for large numbers of high-risk populations.

For decades, the story of tobacco and the heart seemed settled. Cigarettes were dangerous because they burned, releasing tar, carbon monoxide, and thousands of toxic chemicals that wrecked blood vessels. Remove the fire, the thinking went, and you remove almost all of the danger. That's the logic b…
Breathing is so automatic that most of us notice it only when something goes wrong. Yet every breath depends on an extraordinarily delicate structure. Inside the lungs, tiny air sacs provide a vast, thin surface across which oxygen enters the blood. When that tissue is repeatedly injured, the body'…
Most of us rarely wonder what a bicycle headlamp, ceiling light or LED lens is made from. We notice whether it shines brightly, survives heat and weather, and keeps working for years. Yet hidden inside many lighting products are transparent plastics whose environmental credentials are less attracti…
