Advances in Cancer Research Using Unencumbered Scientific Knowledge
NPR's Science Friday[1] last week spoke with Howard Chang, of Stanford Medical School's Biochemistry Department[2]. Chang discussed his recent article, co-authored with several colleagues and published in the Public Library of Science Biology[3] open-access journal, which explores how scientists can learn about cancer from studying the way common wounds heal. Like all PLoS[4] publications, Chang and company's article, "Gene Expression Signature of Fibroblast Serum Response Predicts Human Cancer Progression Similarities between Tumors and Wounds,"[5] is free under a Creative Commons attribution license[6]. Recall that one of Creative Commons' resolutions[7] is to explore a Science Commons. More unencumbered scientific knowledge to come . . .
