Letter: A biotech bonanza is coming ... are we ready?
When I chose a career in science, I assumed two things would be true: it would be easy to find a job in the booming biotech industry, and that job would likely be far from North Dakota. By the time I finished my PhD in 2023, both assumptions were wrong. The American biotech industry has faced serious headwinds in recent decades, allowing countries across Europe and Asia to undermine our leadership in the field.
Town meeting issues illuminate Island’s growing pains
…a largely unspoiled Martha’s Vineyard, where natural and human communities thrive and flourish together with minimal conflict; a sustainable future ensured through preserved land, clean water, and a protected biological heritage. A few years ago, the Vineyard Conservation Society tasked itself with adding to its traditional Mission Statement (roughly, “What does VCS do?”) a new Vision Statement (“Why do we do it?”).

Sex differences in the incidence and mode of death in rats with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
RESEARCH PAPER Abstract New Findings What is the central question of this study? Prior studies failed to address the role of sex in modifying the pathophysiology and response to therapy in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), potentially introducing bias into translational findings. We aimed to explore sex differences in outcomes and sought to identify the underlying mechanisms in a well-established rat model of HFpEF. What is the main finding and its importance?
Earth Interest Should Exceed Self Interest
While we share our environmental problems with all the people of the world, our industrial might, which has made us the leader among nations in terms of material well-being, also gives us the responsibility of dealing with environmental problems first among the nations.
More Ferries Equals More Cars
As the tumult of summer slips back in our collective rearview mirror, the cooler, calmer air of early fall prompts some consideration of whether our Island quality of life — sometimes cynically marketed, but always sincerely valued — is under threat.
Effect of phenology on agonistic competitive interactions between invasive and native sheet-web spiders
The phenologies of introduced relative to native species can greatly influence the degree and symmetry of competition between them. The European spider Linyphia triangularis (Clerck, 1757) (Linyphiidae) reaches very high densities in coastal Maine (USA). Previous studies suggest thatL. triangularis negatively affects native linyphiid species, with competition for webs as one mechanism. We documented phenological differences between L.
Recycled Excuses No Reason to Reject Plastic Bag Ban
Every year on the Vineyard we dispose of millions of plastic shopping bags. Millions. Though they take a variety of paths, almost all eventually end up in the environment. Because thin-film plastic bags are not suitable for recycling (our local haulers don’t even accept them), a large portion simply become noxious gases when they are incinerated with the rest of our trash. This is, sadly, the far better outcome.
