...asked Dr. Branimir Sikic, a professor at Stanford University School of Medicine who chaired the committee that designed ASCO's program. "It's correct that there were more Phase I studies in the clinical science symposia," he told me. "And we did that deliberately. It was a way to inform both practicing [cancer doctors] and clinical researchers about early data and the scientific background of new targets. We now have a huge amount of scientific research and much more knowledge in depth of why we should be targeting a particular gene or protein and how these drugs might work...
...Hauser says.The professors in EPS 8 had “little back and forths” over such issues as dating an event to 20 millions years or 35 million years ago, Heinzerling says, without much disagreement over major concepts. If they diverged, the professors would inform the students that the issue was still contested.“You don’t want to walk away thinking, ‘oh, what my professor is saying is the absolute truth,’” she says.Students said that stylistic variations between professors, however, worked to invigorate...

Perhaps the greatest recent example of absurd University intransigience was its refusal last month to adopt a code explicitly promising not to discriminate against gay students. The Faculty Council was unable to find evidence of discrimination.

Last year's scandal over the South Koreans' similar studies also weighed heavily on the board, and will continue to inform the researchers as their studies begin. "We certainly realize that all eyes [are] upon us," said Eggan. The approval process eventually involved four other institutes, including Boston IVF, where the egg donors will be recruited, Children...
