"We've finished our charge," Hayes proclaimed Wednesday night, although he added he expected to be called back by the council to elaborate on the review board's proposals.
Hayes and the other review board members got high marks for their work from such diverse scientists as Wald and Matthew S. Meselon, chairman of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
Hayes is the chairman of the Cambridge Experimentation Review Board, the eight-person committee set up last August to review proposals for recombinant DNA research at Harvard and MIT. Wednesday night the Review board finally returned its verdict--recommending DNA research be allowed to continue in p-3 labs.
The other strictures were incorporated into the report's recommendations from the reports of other groups studying recombinant DNA research, Hayes, a former mayor of Cambridge, said Wednesday.
But Hayes said the extra precaution was incorporated because board members felt some experiments now done at p-4 might be downgraded to p-3 labs. Hayes said he felt this move would "put one more caution on the experiment, at not much trouble to the researcher."
