Verification of their hypothesis in living systems was complicated by the presence of an enzyme which removed the initiator from chains as soon as the chains were completed. They got around this difficulty by first working with in vitro viral systems...
Still carrying a slight cough from a two-day bout with viral laryngitis, Mrs. Lyndon Johnson last week set out on her most ambitious beautifying and sightseeing trip since becoming First Lady. It was, appropriately enough, within the borders of Texas...
Nearly all experts agree that bacterial and viral diseases will have been virtually wiped out. Probably arteriosclerotic heart disease will also have been eliminated. Cells have only a few secrets still hidden from probers, who are confident that before the year 2000 they will have found the secret that causes cancer. The most exciting, and to some the most frightening, prospect is the chemical and electrical treatment of the brain. Dr. David Krech, psychology professor at the University of California, believes that retarded infants will be diagnosed at birth, and chemical therapy will permit them to function as normal people...
Last week, in the New England Journal of Medicine, Dr. Achs and Dr. Rita Harper ran the number of palm-printed abnormalities up to 20. And although most such disorders involve chromosomal defects determined at the moment of conception, the latest implicated a viral disease. To get clear prints from the hands of tiny, squirming infants, Dr. Achs and her colleagues found that the policeman's inkpad and fingerprint technique would not do; instead they used a direct photographic method developed by New York's Philips Laboratories. The babies' palms were pressed against a prism so that...
...past discussion of chemical warfare and its consequences showed sufficient thought or maturity on the part of the military. "We are like children playing with matches, and tend to forget that the U.S. is the military pacesetter of the world. Should we decide to pioneer the use of germ, viral, and gas weapons, we might lead to their use in smaller countries...
