Rod Brunson, a professor at Northeastern University’s School of Criminology and Criminal Justice, said the tweets reflected a “missed opportunity to demonstrate to the community the interest in repairing the relationship.”

I’m writing this on Tuesday of Week Two at Northeastern University. I’ve taught five classes — two via Zoom, three in person. I’ve taken three COVID tests. I’ve been rear-ended on the Zakim, taken the commuter rail, gotten on the Orange Line and walked the three miles from North Station to campus. I’ve ordered coffee, […]

“I do expect that the rules will be broken,” said Northeastern University Professor Emeritus Alan Schroeder, an expert on presidential debates. It’s an approach that worked well for Trump back then, even though at the time most observers thought Clinton had prevailed.

Meanwhile, Northeastern University researchers found if a COVID-19 vaccine was hoarded by rich countries instead of distributed equally based on population proportions, it could cause twice as many coronavirus deaths.

Herbert’s slipping approval ratings on the pandemic matches a nationwide decline in support for the way governors are managing the virus, according to a report by academics at Northeastern University, Harvard University, Rutgers University, and Northwestern University.

To Gates’ point about the equitable distribution of an eventual vaccine, and he’s clearly confident there will be one, the report includes modeling from Northeastern University that says if the vaccine is distributed in high-income countries first, and not globally, we’ll prevent 33% of COVID-19 deaths compared to no vaccine.

The foundation’s annual Goalkeepers Report, published on Sept. 14, cited original modeling from researchers at Northeastern University, which looked at how many lives could have been saved if there been an 80% effective Covid-19 vaccine available in March.

Arguing for a fair distribution of any coronavirus vaccine, the report pointed to modelling by academics at Northeastern University, which suggested that if 50 wealthy countries bought up the first 2bn doses of a vaccine, rather than ensuring they are distributed proportionally to populations, almost twice as many people could die.

Nearly 8 in 10 Americans trust the CDC, according to a survey conducted by the COVID-19 Consortium for Understanding the Public’s Policy Preferences Across States, a group of researchers at Northeastern University, Harvard, Rutgers and Northwestern University. That figure is down from 87 percent who said they trusted the Atlanta-based CDC in April.

“What’s going to be critically important is that we pair the vaccine with other non-pharmaceutical interventions like physical distancing and mask wearing so we can maximize the benefit of the vaccine early on,” said Samuel Scarpino, epidemiologist and assistant professor at Northeastern University’s Network Science Institute.

The floating wetland is a novel experiment, looking at a new way to control the algae, according to Max Rome, a PH.D. student at Northeastern University. He says the natural food chain has broken down over the years which has allowed the algae to flourish.

Northeastern University Law Professor and GBH News contributor Daniel Medwed suggested at least some of the court’s five judges with Harvard ties had bowed out.
