HIV/AIDS Research Efforts Of New York Scientist Featured
The Brook Community Newspapers/Connecticut Post profiled New York researcher Jeffrey Laurence, who "helped at the outset to fully identify" HIV along with French virologist Luc Antoine Montagnier and others. Laurence, now of the Weill Cornell Medical College Laboratory for AIDS Virus Research at the New York Blood Center, in 1984, "published a paper with Montagnier in the New England Journal of Medicine that brought the news that their virus was the cause of AIDS," the article states. Since the discovery Laurence has continued his research seeking to develop a cure or vaccine for the virus, which now includes investigating the role of stem cells. He said, "The technology is too young to try to say we can cure someone of AIDS or of cancer. We need money to know how to engineer, to refine stem cells to be resistant to infection." The article states, "Laurence is pleased however, that President Barack Obama is "kinder on stem cells and is releasing some of the restrictions,"" on stem cell research (Semmes, 7/24).

Two Day Treatment Of Auditory Hallucinations By High Frequency RTMS Guided By Cerebral Imaging: A 6 Months Follow-up Study

Auditory hallucinations are one of the more disturbing features of schizophrenia, and tend to persist even when patients are treated with conventional medication treatments. Researchers from the University of Caen, France, report on a new treatment for hallucinations at the meeting of the Organization for Human Brain Mapping. They used a technique called Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation- rTMS, which sends magnetic pulses at high frequency (20 Hz) over the brain surface. By placing the pulses guided by anatomical and functional cerebral imaging over the auditory cortex where hallucinations are generated, they found a significant reduction in auditory hallucinations that lasted for nearly 2 weeks following the treatment; 2 patients were hallucination free after 6 months. While the study is still preliminary, it suggests the potential for 20 Hz- rTMS as a new, noninvasive approach to treatment of schizophrenia that is relatively safe and free of side effects.
