[Histonet] RE: Her 2

[joelle weaver]

I have looked at a substantial amount of literature already, just to become more educated, generally , including the orignal FDA study. I am aware of the CAP/ASCO releases , regulations, updates and resources for laboratories. Any other "must reads" on this topic anyone can recommend?  In no way , was I suggesting such an undertaking, just seeing if I could assist anyone. I know about the CAP lab list, not even trying to get on that.

Also all the variables affecting the FISH results. This will also be an extremely costly project so you will have to seek a sponsor or get written consent from your employer to avoid problems down the road.
