Meanwhile, Molecular, another tenant, is withholding payment from Harvard. The web developing firm rents 90,000 square feet of the Watertown space...
...don’t know that [collaborations] can be institutionalized,” Tarr Professor of Molecular and Cellular Biology Markus Meister says. “People find people, that’s how collaborations come about,” he says, adding that he sees no institutional barrier that needs to be broken...
Harvard’s commitment to stem cell research began three years ago, when Melton was the first from the molecular and cellular biology department to bring stem cells to the attention of university officials—including Jane Corlette, acting vice president for Government, Community and Public Affairs...
Moreover, when you do get a viable clone, it may not turn out to be much like its parent in anything but its genes. Rainbow and cc have different coloring, for example, since the coats of calicos are determined partly by genes and partly by random molecular changes during development. Temperament too is a toss-up, since it's hard to tease out how much of an animal's personality is genetically scripted and how much is shaped by environment. "The fallacy is that cloning provides a duplicate," says the Humane Society's Pacelle. Concedes Westhusin: "This...
...That's the bad news. The good news is that the situation is on the mend. Basic research into the molecular chemistry of cancer is well funded and advancing steadily, delivering better diagnoses and smarter drugs. Meanwhile, a series of dramatic improvements in the tools of treatment are moving into clinical trials, promising patients kinder, gentler ways to treat their cancers. Among the highlights...
