Cells are highly controlled spaces that rely on each protein being in the right place. Many diseases, including cancers and neurodegenerative disorders, are associated with misfolded proteins. In some cancers, for example, a protein that normally monitors DNA being copied in the nucleus is sent away from the DNA it’s meant to monitor, allowing cancers to grow. Steven Banik, an assistant professor of chemistry in the School of Humanities and Sciences and an institute scholar at Sarafan ChEM-H at Stanford University, and his lab have developed a new method to help force misguided proteins back into their proper homes within…

And since that’s it my fantasy… There are also spa visits and naps. This will be a reality for me one day. But today is not that day. Money doesn’t exist, and neither does time.

A major reason why it has been difficult to develop an effective vaccine for HIV is that the virus mutates very quickly, allowing it to evade the antibody response generated by vaccines. Several years ago, MIT researchers showed that giving a series of escalating doses of an HIV vaccine over two weeks could help overcome some of this challenge by creating larger amounts of neutralizing antibodies. However, a multiple-dose vaccine regimen given over a short period of time is not practical for mass vaccination campaigns. In a new study, researchers have now found that they can achieve a similar immune…
