Harvard researchers have successfully constructed an essential cellular component responsible for synthesizing proteins—a discovery that marks a major stride towards creating artificial life, according to the lead investigator behind the project...
...woes. It is unfortunate that we have slowed construction of the science complex in Allston, which has pushed stem cell research into old laboratories unequipped for such advanced procedures. We have already begun to witness the fallout created by the Allston delay: a few prominent professors of Molecular and Cellular Biology, displaced by the recent changes, have threatened to leave the university. We hope that, as Obama’s policy changes take effect in the next couple of years, Harvard will take advantage of these new scientific opportunities by providing its professors and researchers with the needed resources. Meanwhile...
...life sciences. “When life sciences research at Harvard was expanding, and money was plentiful, one could say that Harvard could have it all—vibrant basic research and targeted initiatives that might capitalize on specific new opportunities,” said one Molecular and Cellular Biology professor who asked that he not be named to protect his relationship with the University. “But now, unfortunately, since we cannot grow, the situation involves making choices.”The delay has compelled the University to plan to relocate stem cell researchers originally bound for Allston...
...sharpest reaction thus far to the recent decision to put the brakes on the University’s planned expansion into Allston, two professors in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology have considered leaving Harvard, fearing that fallout from the slowdown will harm their research.The University’s plans to deal with the slowdown by re-assigning MCB laboratory space to the stem cell researchers who were originally slated for Allston has raised concerns that basic biology research is being de-prioritized in the current financial crisis, according to several professors contacted by The Crimson last week.Those concerns...
