If coal fired power plants have to be retired quicker than baseline, then theyre going to accomplish the goal, even if this regulation never is upheld in courts. Thank you i want to follow up on this. Ill wait until the second round. Senator markey. Thank you madam chair. I ask that two articles by jed ee freedman and Richard Lazarus be included they provide thorough analysis of that clean power rule. So ordered. Pope frances is about to issue on Climate Change. They named the jesuit who taught chemistry as the pope. Pope frances believes science is the answer to our prayers, we have to look at modest ways to look at this to reduce the danger that growing Greenhouse Gases will impose to gods creation of the planet.

Goes to her doctor, who orders a lung ct scan and a new blood test developed through research supported by the Precision Medicine initiative to look for dna and other biomarkers circulating in her blood. The ct scan detects a tiny spot that could be inflammation from bronchitis or cancer not clear, but the biomarker test clinches the diagnosis, revealing a genetic mutation that occurs only in patients with cancer. In 2015, today her prognosis from this cancer would be pretty grim. But in 2018 that could all change. Lily is treated with surgery to remove the tumor and the tumor dna undergoes molecular analysis. Based on those results, lily is treated with a targeted drug that was originally developed for skin cancer but has the right properties for her tumor. She also receives a course of immunotherapy designed to kill any tumor cells that may be lurking in her body. With this treatment a decade later, lily remains cancer free. Thats a hypothetical but quite realistic of what the cancer

We are here today to discuss exciting new direction in our health care called Precision Medicine. What does that mean . Well, those of us in the room a good representation of the population, they estimate one in ten of us would have diabetes. If doctors could use Precision Medicine, that is if they could look at our individual dna and genetic, molecular makeup of disease, perhaps they could tailor treatments to each individual rather than to more general category of diabetes. I was visited this morning by the head of philadelphia Childrens Hospital who talked about their work in identifying a defective gene, mutated geneti
