I just finished reading &#8220;The Art and Politics of Science&#8221; by Harold Varmus, who was for six years the director of the National Institutes of Health in the US.  A good read for anyone interested in health research, and cancer research in particular.

Summer seems to be taking its time arriving here in the Lower Mainland. But the sun is peeking out from behind the clouds a little longer every day now and I think (trust me) we’ll finally be able to pack away our winter sweaters very soon.
