Great News!!




Hey, guess what? I just found out that my research grant is going to be funded!! Yay! This is good news because I can finally hire some technical help for the stem cell lab and not be a volunteer anymore. It's time to celebrate!

The research project involves targeting "cancer stem cells" that seem to be the driving force behind tumor growth and resistance to chemotherapy.

Hey doc, if you don't already know about this, I thought you might want to check it out.

I'd really love to see a presidential debate about scientific issues and funding.

Thanks, Heather! I got an e-mail about that too. I hope they do discuss this as much as possible.
