...Harvard biologists have won the 1969 George Ledlie prize for their study of "repressor molecules" in cellular genetic function...
...greatest controversy today concerns cancer of the cervix. Again the trouble is insufficient data. What is indisputable is that many, if not most, women on the Pill undergo cellular changes in the cervical region. The question is whether these are precancerous. Two researchers, Drs. Milliard Dubrow and Myron R. Melamed, conducted a three-year study of almost 35,000 women at Manhattan Planned Parenthood clinics. Their report has not been published, and may never be, because technical reviews of the study suggest that it was badly designed. But bits and pieces of the findings have been carefully leaked...
...study the effect on cell division of any radiation that astronauts might encounter. Cone knew that normal cells, grown in the laboratory, will not multiply and crowd one another beyond a certain point. But cancer cells lack this "contact inhibition," and are joined by intimate bonds or "bridges" of cellular material...
...Switzerland, Professor Paul Niehans attracts wealthy Americans and Europeans alike* with his "cellular therapy," in which embryonic cells from the organs of unborn lambs are injected (TIME, Aug. 31, 1959). Niehans is hardly in the same league with some of the practitioners cited by Dorman; he is a licensed physician with the proper credentials and an impressive personality. He carefully selects patients who are likely to respond to his treatment, which includes rest, good care and good food, and excludes liquor and tobacco.

Though Niehans did not personally treat Sir Winston Churchill or Konrad Adenauer, they used his cellular injections...
