High-TECh thymus.

ased assessment of associations with disease phenotypes. This approach relieves the investigator of having to conjure up candidate genes, and will lead to unexpected and often inexplicable findings, as have been reported for diabetes, a prime example of a multigenic trait.3 To query such a large number of SNPs, patient samples must be substantial and the analytical approach must be rigorous. Ne...

High-tech hazards.

In silico screening methods based on the 3D structures of the ligands or of the proteins have become an essential tool to facilitate the drug discovery process. To achieve such process, the 3D structures of the small chemical compounds have to be generated. In addition, for ligand-based screening computations or hierarchical structurebased screening projects involving a rigid-body docking step,...

High Tech Product Strategy

Product strategy is extremely critical to high-tech companies. The market continuously evaluates and rewards or punishes competitors based primarily on the success or failure of their products. Because of the dynamic nature of high-tech markets, product strategy becomes even more critical than in other industries.
