CRITICAL RESEARCH ON THE CRITICAL LIST
Two years ago, two Canadian scientists cracked one of the greatest
medical mysteries of the 20th century. But chances of Canada ever

research is said to be gasping for breath and significantly more
money is needed if Canada is to keep up in medicine with the rest
of the world. 1,500 words.

HAMILTON'S HUMANITARIAN HEALTH
Good health, according to the philosophy of McMaster University's
internationally famous medical school, depends on much more than
just freedom from disease. It also requires warmth, shelter, good
food, education, a supportive environment and strong social
networks. As health experts weigh choices for the future of health
care, more and more of them say McMaster is right. 875 words.
