...receive the High-End Instrumentation (HEI) grant, with which the hospital will install a multimodality pre-clinical imaging platform. The device—which will be used by the hospital’s Longwood Small Animal Imaging Facility (SAIF)—can perform three different types of X-ray imaging of plane sections of the body. “Imaging is very important because it allows research without sacrificing the animal,” said Robert E. Lenkinski, one of SAIF’s directors. In addition to facilitating Harvard Medical School in its cancer research, the equipment will...
...detail the chemical construction of RNA polymerase, a protein complex made of 12 long chains of amino acids with a mass about 10 times that of average protein. To find the structure of large proteins such as RNA polymerase, scientists have to purify them, crystallize them, and then use x-ray crystallography to visualize the structure, according to Jianhua Fu, an assistant professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at Cornell. Fu worked with Kornberg at Stanford and authored one of the scientific papers cited by the Nobel Prize committee. Fu said Kornberg used interdisciplinary techniques involving biology, chemistry, and physics...
...They come in to the office with a stack of dog-eared x-ray folders, a plastic grocery store bag full of reports and things printed off the Internet. Earnest and hopeful, they tell me they even apologize in advance to the patient crowd in the waiting room for the very long time they are about to take. They are coming in for a "second-opinion...
