Science in the Tubez
Been on a blogging hiatus thanks to various lab issues that have cropped up over the past month. It’s amazing how much stuff one has to do to move a lab that hasn’t moved in 12 years… Anyway, here’s a few science tidbits that caught my eye over the past few weeks.
- Developing more efficient green technologies ftw.
- DARPA awards $1.95 million contract for developing “a ‘fieldable’ in-theather, culture-manufacturing system” for “blood pharming”.
- Having worked on drug discovery for HIV and now working on gene therapy vectors, this story in the WSJ about a bone marrow transplant curing a 42-year old of AIDS is remarkable and heartening.
- A troubling legal ruling about liability for generic drugs.
