This is a nice podcast that may delve a little more detail into tissue microarray, and it may or may not be related to HDC. |

Thought this was especially appropriate because HDC is currently focusing on head & neck cancers.

Here's one that David Autumns found about the Help defeat Cancer project: http://www.zwire.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=174...;dept_id=506868&rfi=6
----------------------------------------Both of us thought it was interesting to see how a good journalist who is not IT-savvy interpreted all this. My main complaint is the missing URL to join the WCG and help out. Although I laughed at the 'only a microchip of data' statement. I ought to copy that to Sekerob's thread on HDC memory requirements.

That article was distilled from a 45 minute telephone interview and
I never had a chance to review. I also got a kick out of that so-called quote "microchip of data". There were several "quotes" that I was credited w/ that were just a bit off the mark, but I think the reporter did her level best. I am sorry they seemed to have missed the point of including the URL. |
