Confirm immunology protocol and recruit immunology advisors
- Key questions
- Is this the correct protocol (positive structure/function), what is missing, what would be logically measured
- Effect was most pronounced in CMV+ individuals
- Contacts
- Monica Ranes-Goldberg, Immunology Professor, UCSC (8/3, call 8/10)
- Daniel Kraft, Stanford Stem Cell Research (8/3)
- Mark Hamalainen, Halcyon Molecular (8/3)
- Mark M Davis, Dir Stanford Inst for Immunology
- Chris Hogg, Gilean (8/3, no immediate contacts)
- Cancer and telomere contacts
2. Recruit CROs
3. Determine IRB (Institutional Review Board) strategy, informed consent, regulatory concerns, ethics, etc.
4. Recruit and confirm oncology contacts
5. Develop protocol
