An Australian doctor who applied his own pioneering research on melanoma to the incurable brain cancer he was diagnosed with almost a year ago is still cancer-free. University of Sydney Professor Richard Scolyer said he “couldn’t be happier” after the results of a recent MRI showed there was still no sign of recurrence of his glioblastoma. Posting the update on ...

Returning to Treloar’s School brings back many bittersweet memories for Gary Webster, Steve Nicholls, Richard Warwick and Ade Goodyear. This life-transforming school in the Hampshire countryside is where these men were sent as haemophiliac children to live and learn among other kids who needed the best round-the-clock medical care.

NEW YORK — Former lawyer Michael Cohen, the key witness in Donald Trump’s hush money trial, began testifying Monday against his ex-boss — unspooling what prosecutors hope will be a critical thread of evidence tying the presumptive Republican presidential nominee directly to an illegal scheme to conceal a 2016 payment to an adult-film actress.
