今天收到一张新的Macy‘s American express 卡。奇怪的是我根本没有申请过啊,只 是很久以前有Macy's的star rewards visa卡,可是已经关了啊,他们怎么可以用我旧 的information自作主张寄给我新卡呢?想cancel了,但马上cancel是不是也会影响我 的credit啊?

"Having been awarded with a Helen Hay Whitney Fellowship, he carried out his postdoctoral training studying neural development, at the laboratory of G. Rubin at the University of California at Berkeley, which he completed in 1993." CNIO Cancer Conference: The Cell Cycle and Cancer. Madrid, September 30- October 2, 2002. Spanish National Cancer Centre (Tian Xu's bio, at page 94). www.cnio.es/eventos/descargas /CCC/04116_782,76_booklet.pdf That is Prof Gerald Rubin. The Spanish name of the Centre is Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Oncoló gicas (CNIO). (i) The report states, "The first scientist who produced genetically altered mice won the 2007 Nobel Prize in Medicine." I think it is an error. There were three that year: Mario R. Capecchi, Sir Martin J. Evans, Oliver Smithies. http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/2007/ (j) The report further comments, "A decade of trial and error rewarded Dr. Xu with the jackpot: a butterfly gene, nicknamed piggyBac, that could insert itself into the mouse genome, randomly turning off one gene per mouse. The paper: Ding S et al, Efficient transposition of the piggyBac (PB) transposon in mammalian cells and mice. Cell, 122: 473-83 (2005). http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16096065 (k) My comment: I was unaware of the paper until now. I have not read it. But as a rule of thumb, there are hot spots where transposons tend to move into. Transpositions are believed not to be random, in other words. That is why Dr Xu hopes to generate tens of thouosands of mice to observe them. And the technology has not resolved the hardship to create a mutation by design, which is his original goal ("he seeks a holy grail: the key to what makes a mouse tick, gene by gene by gene"--paragraph 6, web page 1 of the NYT report) and which was how the three biologists won the 2007 Nobel prize in Medicine. Off hand, I can not assess impact of Dr Xu's PiggyBac.
