TL;DR: To identify the critical genetic networks regulating the acquisition of adult hematopoietic repopulating potential, prospective purification via flow cytometry and microarray technology is exploited to assess the global gene expression profiles of HSC and progenitors from throughout murine ontogeny and embryonic stem cell differentiation.

James J. Collins,John A. Bukowski,Douglas L. Weed,Robert L. Brent,Patti Klein,Mariette Boerstoel-Streefland,J. Michael Sprafka,Amy Lavin Williams,Michael P. Holsapple +8 more
TL;DR: It is recommended that public and private institutions not defer action until an issue is scientifically resolved and stress that cooperation among issue stakeholders is critical for effective issue resolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain Cancer in Workers Employed at a Laboratory Research Facility.
TL;DR: The updated estimate of the risk of brain cancer death is smaller than in the original study, because there was no consistent pattern among the work histories of decedents that indicated a common causative exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Communication of epidemiology study results by industry: the Dow Chemical Company approach.
James J. Collins,Kenneth M. Bodner,Catherine M. Baase,Carol J. Burns,Brenda Jammer,Louis J. N. Bloemen +5 more
