NIH Funding

Another thread from Purdue worth posting:

   We are calling upon you again during this Independence Day
holiday
period to ask you to contact your Representative in person at a local
event or by telephone to the local office by July 9th. When Congress
returns to Washington after the 4th of July recess, the House of
Representatives will consider a 1.9% increase to the NIH budget.
Between now and then, you have the opportunity to remind your
Representative of the importance of your work and let them know about
any difficulties you have encountered because of shrinking budgets.

   Members of Congress have told us that they are not hearing from
researchers in the community. We must turn this around. Members and
their staffs are receptive to hearing from researchers about how the
proposed FY 2008 budget will affect their research and their careers.

   Please contact your Representative either in person at a local
Independence Day event or by telephone before July 9th. Tell them
your
story and let them know that they must make cancer and biomedical
research funding a national priority.

   In your contact with your Representative, please mention any of
the research challenges you are facing at this time, for example: -
denials or delays in getting grant funding for meritorious research
   -the impact of cuts to grants already funded
   -staffing and equipment shortages
   -the loss of bright young investigators to other fields
   -reduced opportunities for patients to get on therapeutic
clinical
trials
   -cancellation or halting of important clinical trials.

   In short, your Representative needs to hear about the serious
effect these low budgets are having on your research progress. Urge
them to make cancer research funding a national priority. A few
minutes of your time could help get NIH and NCI funding back on
track.

   Thank you for responding to this request and have an enjoyable
holiday.

   William N. Hait, M.D., Ph.D., President
   William G. Nelson V, M.D., Ph.D., Chair, Science Policy &
Legislative Affairs Committee
   Margaret Foti, Ph.D., M.D. (h.c.), Chief Executive Officer

   P.S. Please let AACR know you have made a contact with your
Representative by sending us a quick e-mail at legaffa...@aacr.org.
Just write: "I have contacted Representative X in person/by phone."

them
both, but there aren't really alternatives (yes, I know, there's
Linux, but
it's probably even harder to hook up a Linux system to hardware than
it is
to hook a Mac up to hardware).

Of course, what started this thread was the assertion in the piece
about
Mario on Apple's web site that there were 15,000 to 20,000 Mac-based
flow
cytometers out there. The best estimates I had from industry people
in
early 2003 when I was finishing up the 4th Edition of PFC was that
the
total number of systems from all manufacturers in use was under
20,000. If
that's correct, BD would need a 75% market share to account for the
low end
estimate of 15,000 Mac-based machines. I'd be interested to know
where
the
15,000 to 20,000 figure came from.

The old (68000 series and possibly early PowerPC) Macs were
difficult,
but
not impossible to connect to hardware; it was easier to work with the
PC's
ISA bus, which, while slow, was perfectly adequate to do most flow
cytometric data acquisition and analysis. There were decent versions
of
Forth, which was one of the first and best languages designed for
controlling hardware from mini- and microcomputers, for both PC (DOS)
and
the Mac (Forth was the first Mac programming language made
commercially
available, at a time when the only other option was buying the very
expensive Lisa from Apple on which to develop Mac software). I found
MacForth easier to program with than the Windows Forths (or other
Windows
languages, e.g., Delphi), but my old Macs used to crash all the time.

So what makes me unhappy with both Windows [and Windows machines] and
the
Mac in their current incarnations? It is now significantly harder for
mere
mortals to write software to get hardware to communicate with either
PCs or
Macs; the gain in complexity associated with the PCI bus, USB/USB2,
FireWire(IEEE 1394), etc. is greater than the gain in speed and
convenience. Also, in making the operating systems more stable (and
Win XP,
despite its security issues, is almost as stable as Mac's Unix-based
OS X),
both Microsoft and Apple elected to eliminate the ability of their
computer
hardware to respond rapidly to interrupts (latencies are now in the
tens of
thousands of instruction cycles), meaning that any really fast
hardware
attachment for either a PC or a Mac now needs to have a DSP in it,
whereas
if the fast interrupt response had been preserved, the hardware
attachments
could have been made much simpler and cheaper. Linux also takes fast
interrupt response off the table, so it doesn't represent a viable
alternative. If you go to Apple's web site and look at what data
acquisition hardware is available for Macs, particularly for Macs
running
OS X, there isn't much, and many of the companies that supported the
Mac in
that area have dropped Mac support for their newer products. That is
undoubtedly one big reason why BD's newer digital pulse processing
cytometers are running on the PC platform.

That doesn't stop anybody from analyzing FCS files on Macs. FlowJo is
well-conceived flow cytometry software; one reason it is as good as
it
is
is that it was written by people who do a lot of flow cytometry, and
cutting edge flow cytometry at that. But there are other people who
do
a
lot of good flow cytometry who have written good software, for PCs as
well
as for Macs.

For the record, I have a G4 PowerBook, which I use mostly for the
iLife
applications, which are slick. It doesn't crash more than once every
couple
of months, but the same is true of my Windows 2000 and XP systems. OS
X can
be as infuriating as Windows when one or another aspect of it goes
counter
to your intuition or to what you have gotten used to. Macs, while
somewhat
more expensive, are much better made than many PCs, and they are
certainly
aesthetically pleasing. If there were a reasonable alternative to
Microsoft's Office applications for the Mac, I might consider
switching.
The 12.1" PowerBook is a nice portable, but it's over a pound heavier
than
the Fujitsu laptop I now use, which has pretty much the same speed,
memory,
and drive capabilities (OK, not DVD-R, but I don't burn a lot of
DVDs).

However, I really wish Apple had stuck with the plan they had a few
years
back of writing a Mac operating system for Intel hardware. I think
that
died when Microsoft bailed Apple out with a few hundred mil. If it
were
possible to run OS X and XP mano a mano on the same hardware, there'd
be a
more rational basis for comparison. But, as may be the case for the
November election, minds, once made up, are not easily changed.

of months, but the same is true of my Windows 2000 and XP systems. OS
X can
be as infuriating as Windows when one or another aspect of it goes
counter
to your intuition or to what you have gotten used to. Macs, while
somewhat
more expensive, are much better made than many PCs, and they are
certainly
aesthetically pleasing. If there were a reasonable alternative to
Microsoft's Office applications for the Mac, I might consider
switching.
The 12.1" PowerBook is a nice portable, but it's over a pound heavier
than
the Fujitsu laptop I now use, which has pretty much the same speed,
memory,
and drive capabilities (OK, not DVD-R, but I don't burn a lot of
DVDs).

However, I really wish Apple had stuck with the plan they had a few
years
back of writing a Mac operating system for Intel hardware. I think
that
died when Microsoft bailed Apple out with a few hundred mil. If it
were
possible to run OS X and XP mano a mano on the same hardware, there'd
be a
more rational basis for comparison. But, as may be the case for the
November election, minds, once made up, are not easily changed.

Paul,

I know that for a long time, anyone who used a BD flow cytometer had
little
choice but to use a MAC-data acquisition required it.  And, one of
the
best
third party software packages was FlowJo which only ran on a MAC.
Mario,
being a FlowJock, naturally was heavily exposed to this atmosphere.
However, most of our other laboratory instrumentation appears to run
on the
IBM clone type of PC-ELISA reader, luminometer, ELISpot reader, and
AFFYMETRIX machine to name the first ones that come to mind.  Of
course,
because Flow is such a key component and FlowJo works so well, we
have
MACs
(and associated cinema displays) at all of our desks.  So, Mario is
probably
pretty close as I guess we now run about 50% MAC, and for most things
they
do run better than our PCs for similar applications, but mostly the
two
platforms tend to be used for very disparate applications and we need
both.

Wish more science companies would move to MAC, but as Microsoft
probably
owns a minority share in most companies, that will not likely happen
in our
lifetimes.

Haven't read the article yet, but hopefully Mario remembered to cite
you for
all the work on the Flow website/mailing list.
