...result, few serious side effects were apparent. With the addition of cyclophosphamide, a drug that Rosenberg believes suppresses immune-system cells that might otherwise impede the TIL cells, the treatment achieved its spectacular success rates. Most important, the combined therapy cured mice of advanced colon cancers that in parallel animal experiments had withstood the LAK cells. Can TIL immunotherapy work in humans? "There are some questions," says Dr. Alexander Fefer, a University of Washington researcher who has pioneered in the development of T cells that target malignancies. Perhaps the most significant question is whether human TIL cells will exhibit...
Responding to Schlesinger and Bundy, Richard G. Darman '64, deputy secretary of the treasury, drew a parallel between JFK and Reagan. The two had appealing physical qualities and strong leadership skills, he said...
...specified. One frame of 35-mm film can require more than 6 million pixels; a 60-second sequence can cost $300,000 and take months to complete. To speed up the process, Catmull and Smith built a special-purpose machine -- the Pixar -- that divides the computational task among four parallel processors: three to control the red, blue or green washed onto each pixel; one to control the pixel's transparency...
Most scientists agree that the small-brained australopithecines were the first manlike creatures to walk upright, 3.5 million or more years ago, and that their evolution ran parallel to that of humanity's direct ancestors. The dispute arises over details. Some researchers, including Anthropologist Donald Johanson, director of the Berkeley-based Institute of Human Origins, think that a single species, Australopithecus afarensis, which includes the celebrated 3 million-year-old skeleton called Lucy, was the common ancestor of all later australopithecines, as well as man. The two branches, they say, split about 3 million years ago, with the Australopithecus line...
