Foreword: looking beyond cure: pediatric cancer as a model.
In treating and controlling cancer, the most dramatic evidence of progress is that seen in childhood cancer. Once almost uniformly fatal, pediatric cancer has become a commonly curable illness in the last 30 years. For children diagnosed with cancer, the current 5-year cancerfree survival rate is 79%, and the 10-year survival rate is approaching 75% (Rowland et al., 2004). These figures already...

متن کاملLooking beyond the Standard Model
Within the framework of the Standard Model, the scale of electroweak symmetry breaking is unstable to radiative corrections. We discuss two broad classes of models of new physics (one with a strongly interacting and the other with a perturbatively coupled electroweak symmetry breaking sector) in which this stability is restored. After reviewing experimental constraints on these, we discuss the ...
