CCR Frontiers in Science - A Newsletter for Scientists
Frontiers in Science is a newsletter developed to foster scientific communication and collaboration within the Center for Cancer Research (CCR) by: 1) promoting awareness of cutting-edge scientific results coming from the Center; 2) presenting information on core facilities, technologies, and other scientific resources; 3) communicating ideas to scientists outside their specific field of research; and 4) providing helpful administrative news briefs.
The June 2007 issue of CCR Frontiers in Science will be the final issue of this newsletter. The issue features an article by Nozomu Yanaihara, MD, PhD, and Curtis Harris, MD, describing their work in determining that microRNA expression profiles can be used as diagnostic and prognostic markers of lung cancer. In From the Director, Robert Wiltrout, PhD, discusses the 2007 NCI Symposium on Chromosome Biology. Also, the Director’s Office is announcing a new CCR publication, called CCR Connections.
