...Judah Folkman, Andrus professor of pediatric surgery and professor of anatomy and cellular biology at the medical school, talked about leading advances in angiogenesis research...
Langer's career as pharmaceutical postman began in 1974 when he graduated from M.I.T. with a doctorate in chemical engineering. He had 20 job offers from oil companies but opted instead for a postdoctorate position at Children's Hospital in Boston with Judah Folkman, one of the world's leading cancer researchers. It may have seemed an odd choice for an engineer with a bankable resume, but it gave Langer a unique perspective on a fast-growing field. He has since become the leading pioneer of modern biomedical engineering, earning scores of awards and distinctions and nearly 400 patents...
More than 2,500 years ago, Jabez, the 35th son of Judah, asked God to bless him and enlarge his territory. He had no idea that his 32-word prayer, wrapped inside an inspirational book by evangelist Bruce Wilkinson, would become a No. 1 best seller.

Among them: Praying Like Jesus (HarperSanFrancisco), I Just Wanted More Land (Xulon Press...

Three years ago, Nobel laureate James Watson, co-discoverer of the structure of DNA, was quoted as saying Dr. Judah Folkman, the Harvard researcher, would use these inhibitors to "cure cancer within two years...
