...they're badly designed. One of the fascinating things to me was going to visit Boeing's checklist factory, where they make over 100 checklists a year and design them in ways that pilots can actually use them in a time crush. They helped us design ours. We set a target that no step along the way would take more than 60 seconds and the whole process should be, in routine situations, under two minutes total. The Mayo Clinic adopted the checklist that we designed. And they actually reduced their operating time, because it helped the teams be more prepared...
With the victory, the Crimson set a new team record for non-conference wins. Harvard will look to extend that record in its final non-league matchup tomorrow at Santa Clara...
...tumor itself. "This is the first application of genetics to estimate the basic biology of the tumor," says Tony Papenfuss, a bioinformatics researcher at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research in Melbourne and a co-author of the Science paper. "And we've produced a set of tools that can push that information further...
Through genetic analysis, the Science team was able to confirm that the tumors being spread from devil to devil were the same - genetically identical, exact clonal copies. Using genetic sequencing technology, the team also uncovered the tumors' transcriptome, which means the set of genes that are activated in tumors. Those activated genes best matched those of Schwann cells, which gave the team a clue as to where the disease originated - that's important because devils are unusually susceptible to a number of different cancers, and a quick diagnosis before the facial tumors get out of control would be helpful...
