Weíre celebrating20 years of ourTranslational ResearchProgram because thisis what we have toshow for it.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS)

is proud to announce this yearís TRP grantees.

They join the ranks of all the grantees weíve

funded over the 20 years of this program.

Thanks to their research, many promising

discoveries have moved from bench to

bedside quicker than ever before, saving

lives and improving outcomes for blood

cancer patients. We look forward to the same

contributions from our new TRP researchers;

healthy men, women and children. And thatís

certainly a reason to celebrate!

Learn more about LLSís grant programs

and see what your research can do,

not someday, but today.

Odor-Free Evaporator

The ìodor reductionî function for the EZ-2

evaporator enables it to be placed on an

open bench rather than taking up valuable

fume hood space. Many solvent evapora-

tors are routinely sited inside fume ex-

traction hoods because residual solvent

vapor, remaining in the chamber at the

end of a run, can expose the operator to

potentially harmful odors when the system

is opened. The EZ-2ís Reduce Odor func-

tion automatically adds a repeated vent

and vacuum cycle to the end of a method,

which purges the evaporation chamber

of residual solvent vapors. Three settings

are available to optimize vapor removal

without releasing trapped solvent from the

cold trap. Using advanced evaporation

FISH Slide Incubator

The CytoBrite Duo Slide Incubation

System is a dual temperature slide

heating instrument for performing FISH

hybridization protocols. It consists of two

independently controlled heating blocks

that each hold a six-slide removable tray.

After assay assembly, a slide tray is sim-

ply moved from one lower temperature

heating position to a higher temperature

position to perform the brief probe co-

denaturation step then returned to the

lower temperature position for hybridiza-

tion. The snap heating and cooling of

slides eliminates heat damage to cells for

more reliable results. Slides are sealed
