Biology's Blockbuster: Visualizing Genetic Variations
Kelli Miller | Feb 17, 2002 | 3 min read
They say timing is everything, and when it comes to cancer that's especially true. Human cells grow and divide every 24 hours. But in a fraction of a second, an error can occur in the copying of the human genome. Spotting precisely when that error happens is key to understanding, and possibly preventing, the development of cancer. Traditional cell cycle analysis involves staining samples taken at random intervals. But these snapshots don't tell the whole story. To see exactly what takes place ea
