These women say they were sexually harassed by Rutgers professors. Why won’t the university investigate?

New Jersey's largest university has a policy of not investigating most incidents that are more than two years old - even if the professor is still teaching on campus.

After so many recent disappointments, like a lot of people I was holding my breath on this one. This is so, so encouraging.

I'm excited to share that my next investment in Alzheimer’s research is in a new fund from @TheADDF called Diagnostics Accelerator. I’m joining Leonard Lauder and other philanthropists in committing over $30M to develop a new way to diagnose Alzheimer’s.

Great piece from @TheADDF Even if we can get PET scans covered by insurance, the better long-term answer is simple, inexpensive, non-invasive tests to detect Alzheimer's early.

In the "Fighting Alzheimer's" insert in USA Today, our CSO @a_hfillit writes about the importance of funding new tests for #Alzheimers, and how early detection can save trillions in heath and caregiving costs.
