Paint "equals" water in much the same way as, in some Renaissance portraiture, the graininess of pigment "equals" the cellular structure of flesh...
Among popular theories of the aging process, Leaf cited the environmental approach and the concept of a genetic timing device. He outlined two relevant areas of medical research: a separation of the aging process from degenerative diseases such as cancer and a study of cellular growth in an attempt to determine the biological limits of life...
Hiatt--who has been Physician-in-Chief at Beth Israel Hospital--is well-known for his research in cellular growth and in the application of scientific findings to the control of cancer...
...money will be used for research on molecular biology, cellular radiation biology, tumor immunology, and the genetic effect of radiation. Many of these study areas were already under research, although, as Hellman added, "We would have had to scrap a number of these projects without this support...
...make the vaccine from viruses grown in human cells, specifically in a strain developed by Dr. Leonard Hayflick and Dr. Paul S. Moorhead. Originally derived from the lung tissue of a Swedish aborted fetus, this strain is pure, will reproduce itself 50 times and allows a huge yield of cellular material. Britain already uses polio vaccine produced in these cells, and the U.S.S.R. is switching to it. But for years the U.S. regulatory agency, the Division of Biologies Standards in the National Institutes of Health, has refused to license such a vaccine. Now DBS has set guidelines for U.S. manufacturers...
