Description

"My own research focuses on diseases of the immune system"

TLS signed “A. S. Fauci, M.D.,” two pages, 8.5 x 11, Department of Health & Human Services letterhead, September 12, 1994. Letter to school teacher Steve Yoken and his students, with Fauci starting by saying that "the late Dr. Sheldon Wolff had the most profound effect on my professional development." He then proceeds to write about how biotechnology and "the techniques that have been developed in molecular biology" have revolutionized biomedical research—"Among the tremendous advances resulting from biotechnology are monoclonal antibodies, which have led to new diagnostics and therapies; gene isolation and cloning, which has resulted in the discovery of genes responsible for a variety of genetic disorders; and recombinant technologies, which have enabled researchers to develop new generations of vaccines to prevent disease. My own research focuses on diseases of the immune system. The Laboratory of Immunoregulation, of which I am Chief, is investigating the ways in which the AIDS virus destroys the body's defense against deadly infections and cancers." In fine condition.
