...Stem-Cell Study Moves Ahead I was thrilled to read about Douglas Melton in the article "The Quest Resumes" [Feb. 9]. The work he and his colleagues are doing will result in numerous lives being saved and an end to the untold suffering of many who deal with chronic illnesses. Ali Curry, Holbrook...
...planned expansion into Allston, two professors in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology have considered leaving Harvard, fearing that fallout from the slowdown will harm their research.The University’s plans to deal with the slowdown by re-assigning MCB laboratory space to the stem cell researchers who were originally slated for Allston has raised concerns that basic biology research is being de-prioritized in the current financial crisis, according to several professors contacted by The Crimson last week.Those concerns have taken a toll, as professors in MCB have grown uneasy about their ability to continue their work...
Once slated to become a centerpiece of the new Allston Science Complex as early as 2011, the Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology will now occupy the Sherman Fairchild Biochemistry Building, uprooting the MCB researchers currently situated there...
...move out of Fairchild—which could take weeks—would also require lengthy consultation with architects and planners, according to several professors with laboratories in the building. To accommodate incoming stem cell researchers, Fairchild would have to be gutted and reconstructed...
Some MCB department members also said they were concerned that the University’s eviction of MCB faculty to make way for the stem cell department is indicative of a “corporatization” of science that comes at the cost of basic research. Meselson questioned the University’s prioritization of stem cell research, a highly specialized field that, he speculated, may not exist in 100 years...
