Look, I spoke with an employee of Illumina yesterday. It had nothing to do with our current conversation, they called me about an unrelated topic.

Re: No Travel Required - KRAS-Variant Mutation and Breast Cancer

LMAO, I think there is a reason that you are living now.

When you are dealt cards can you pick 4 Aces every time? Nor can you pick which genes are hetero- or homozygous.

Re: Overlooking Evolution: A Systematic Analysis of Cancer Relapse and Therapeutic Re

Hello Hopeful,

Re: The Army of Women cancelled webinar response from Dr. Joanne Weidhaas

This is directly from Dr. Weidhaas. I emailed and asked her questions when Rhondalea and I had a spirited discussion about the KRAS study.

Re: No Travel Required - KRAS-Variant Mutation and Breast Cancer

My husband is homozygous for C282Y and H63D. Very familiar with the phlebotomy treatment of this. I wouldn't exactly call that "dodging a bullet" - but it was nice that she found it early.

$295 is literally what it costs to run it. The market cost is more around $2000, although we have kept that down as well to $595. However, we do have financial assistance, and haven't said no to a...

Re: No Travel Required - KRAS-Variant Mutation and Breast Cancer
