The study is published on April 2, 2025, online in Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology (AAN).

    Novel point-of-care technology delivers accurate HIV results in minutes

    A team of Northwestern University scientists spanning disciplines have developed new technology that could lead to the creation of a rapid point-of-care test for HIV infection competitive with traditional lab-based HIV testing in a fraction of the time and without the need for a stressful wait while results are processed or confirmed in a clinical laboratory.

    HIV-diagnostic technology traditionally relied on the detection of HIV-specific antibodies that form several weeks after infection….

    Cooking Through Flames: How Gaza Struggles to Feed Itself

    For over a year and five months, the people of Gaza have endured an unrelenting war of extermination—one that has robbed them not only of life’s comforts but of its very essence. Eighteen months of ceaseless suffering, where mere survival has become an act of defiance. The Israeli genocide in Gaza has drained every ounce of their strength—physically, mentally, and emotionally.

    Israel announced a blockade on all humanitarian aid – including water, food and fuel – into Gaza in early March.

    The UN World Food Program (WFP) announced on Wednesday that all bakeries it supports in the Gaza Strip were forced to shut down due to a lack of fuel and flour as a result of Israel’s blockade on the enclave.

    Susan Abulhawa’s response to PEN America’s complicity with genocide – Mondoweiss

    Starting in early 2024, a loose coalition of individual writers, ad hoc groups, and Writers Against the War on Gaza (WAWOG) started a pressure campaign against PEN America because of the organization’s tepid response to Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza. PEN America, which currently styles itself as the leading “free speech” organization in the United States, was founded in 1922 as an affiliate of PEN International, an association of writers “promoting literature and…
