...asked Dr. Branimir Sikic, a professor at Stanford University School of Medicine who chaired the committee that designed ASCO's program. "It's correct that there were more Phase I studies in the clinical science symposia," he told me. "And we did that deliberately. It was a way to inform both practicing [cancer doctors] and clinical researchers about early data and the scientific background of new targets. We now have a huge amount of scientific research and much more knowledge in depth of why we should be targeting a particular gene or protein and how these drugs might work...
...certainly everybody wants to come to Harvard. That’s a big plus for us,” he adds, using as an example world champion foilist Emily Cross, “who turned down a full scholarship” to Stanford to come and fence for the Crimson.“That’s huge, the fact that somebody’s willing to bypass a full scholarship to a very good school like Stanford to come to Harvard,” Brand says. “Obviously, she felt that our fencing program...
...Knecht Cup on New Jersey’s Cooper River, Radcliffe bested an impressive field of six, edging second-place Princeton by over three seconds and also beating Wisconsin and Georgetown. And the Black and White went 3-0 in Redwood Shores, Calif., including wins over Princeton and Stanford, to take the Windemere. “The first big highlight was really the Windemere, when we beat Princeton right off the bat,” Orler said. “Then at the Knecht Cup, beating Princeton and Wisconsin, that was [another] high point...
...expect to lose and they know it’s going to be tough.” Against non-league opponents, Harvard was far from invulnerable. The Crimson began the spring season with three consecutive wins, including a victory over No. 6 Georgia. After a loss to No. 1 Stanford, the Crimson came back to post wins over South Alabama and Sacramento State, advancing to No. 9 in the national poll. That ranking, however, would prove to be the season’s high-water mark. Harvard was cursed by inconsistency in the rest of the non-league slate, losing...
...relevant physics.Wilson was among the physicists of the 1970s who developed Standard Theory, the current model of particle physics that refined quantum field theory. Michael E. Peskin ’73, who was Wilson’s doctoral advisee at Cornell and is now a professor at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, recalls how Wilson synthesized all of elementary particle physics into the Standard Theory at a seminar in 1974.Wilson drew boxes on a long blackboard, and each box contained some known concept about elementary particles. Then he drew arrows between all the boxes, explaining the connections between concepts that...
