ABSTRACT
was developed because we feel that it is important for
developing scientists to stay informed of not only progress in
our respective fields but also important issues in the societal,
legislative, and economic environment in which we approach our
scientific pursuits. Our goal in establishing this student and
postdoctoral publication is three-fold: to inform readers about
a variety of important developments in the realms of science,
business and government, to maintain trainees' intellectual connections
with all biomedical departments, in keeping with the interdisciplinary
goals of biomedical education at Vanderbilt, and finally, to provide
Vanderbilt students and postdoctoral fellows with an opportunity
to gain experience in science writing. We hope that you will look
to ABSTRACT for coverage of current progress at Vanderbilt and
in the broader scientific community and that the information provided
here will spark discussion and debate among colleagues. It is
our sincere hope that ABSTRACT will become a staple of the student
and postdoctoral experience at Vanderbilt.
