Klausner told the Washington Post last week that the move is unrelated to the ongoing probe, which is examining whether Klausner was improperly involved in the decision-making process that eventually awarded the $40 million grant to Harvard researchers??during part of which he was a candidate for the position of University president...
Scientists would need ultimately to lower the cost of sequencing a human genome to $1,000. The electrophoresis method, however, costs about $20 million, while the Harvard researchers?? epifluorescence method, which processes thousands of bases at the same time, currently costs about $2.2 million. By speeding up the process, the new method reduces lab time and, consequently, cost. Researchers say they hope it can be decreased even more...
...finding by the HMS researchers??who included Dudley Lamming, Oliver Medvedik, and Magda Latorre-Esteves, in addition to Sinclair—reveals that Sir2 does not serve this function alone. Rather, a group of related genes—the Sir2 family—plays a major role in regulating lifespan. Sinclair said that one of the genes in the family appears to control functions such as fat metabolism and cell survival, while another controls body temperature and the efficiency with which an organism uses energy, and yet others protect against diabetes...
