...under study. According to Bendandi, randomized testing of custom-made vaccines would be meaningless because each patient in the experimental arm receives a different treatment.

But only Schnabel has actually launched a plausible career for himself...

By the following August, Basquiat was dead as well. How will the future regard him and his brethren? "Dying young is the easy way out," says Longo. "It's much harder to keep your edge and keep it going." It pays to keep in mind something Zhou Enlai once said. On the bicentennial of the French Revolution, someone asked the erstwhile Chinese Communist Party leader what he thought its legacy would be. His answer: "It's too soon...
