They give us the ability to speak and write and read, to compose symphonies, paint masterpieces and delve into the molecular biology that makes us what...
...sometime in the next few weeks, a team led by molecular geneticist Svante Pääbo of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, in Leipzig, Germany, will announce an even more stunning achievement: the sequencing of a significant fraction of the genome of Neanderthals--the human-like species we picture when we hear the word caveman--who are far closer to us genetically than chimps are. And though Neanderthals became extinct tens of thousands of years ago, Pääbo is convinced he's on the way to reconstructing the entire genome of that long-lost relative, using...
...York-based foundation has donated to Harvard in the pastâincluding a $5 million gift for financial aid in 2004. The new money will fund the development of technology designed to investigate the molecular causes of cancer and, in turn, use this technology to create viable treatment options for patients, according to the Starr Foundation...
...need to combine clinical medicine, computational science, chemistry, and molecular biology. No one person and no one research group has all these tools,â he said. âThe medicine of the future will be led by bringing together teams to tackle a specific problem...
