,” studied “the law of least mental effort”—the theory that people will choose a low-demand task over a high-demand one when given a choice. Perhaps ironically, the research itself was rather demanding. “This was a huge project,” Henderson said. “We had to get students to take the test, and participants had to sit at a computer for 30 minutes and choose between two colors to click on. We had to use this weird math system. We probably worked on it 20 hours per week.” Based in a toasty two-computer

potentially huge impact. “She is on the ground floor of a relatively new field that has the possibility of making all kinds of great insights into cancer in the evolution of history,” Ryan said. As Hunt and other researchers unearth more and more ancient evidence—breast cancer in 3500 B.C. Egypt, osteo-sarcoma in a T. rex femur—Hunt has formed an intriguing theory: She believes cancer is inherent in human beings and is aggravated by—rather than caused by—environmental factors. Her goal now is to gather
