NIGMS
Thank you to Francis Collins, Judith Greenberg, speakers and organizers of the NIGMS 50th Anniversary Symposium! #Stetten
Dr. Mitchison: Taxol does something in tumor cells, but we don't quite know what it is; blocking mitosis not the whole story. #Stetten
Dr. Mitchison: Does the monastrol result tell us anything about mitosis-specific drugs? There is a role for academia in failure analysis.
Dr. Mitchison: Does the kinesin-5 inhibitor monastrol kill dividing cancer cells, but without taxol's neurotoxicity? No.
Dr. Tim Mitchison is showing us his first NIH grant application from 1987. It was funded; how would it do today? #Stetten
