 Thirty Years of Breast Cancer Research
 
                              Researchers in the Life Sciences Division at Berkeley Lab have discovered that the loss of structure in a tissue could lead to cancer. Lab researcher Mina Bissell, who researched environments of cells and genes in determining the formation of tumors and breast tissue formation and structure, has studied breast cancer for over 30 years. "I began to question how breast cancer is tissue-specific, in that you and I come from a single cell that makes breast, elbow, all of those," she said. Full story.

 With Renewal Form
 
 There's a quick and easy way for donors who contributed to last year's SHARES charitable giving campaign to contribute this year. Employees can simply renew their 2004 donations by writing "Same as Last Year" on their donor form and returning it to the Payroll Department. Their 2005 donations will go to the same charities, and at the same amount, as they did in 2004. Go here to see a list of donating options and to learn more about the SHARES program. To make online contributions, go here. Send questions to the SHARES answer line.

 Map Lab Goals for Future
 
 Berkeley Lab Director Steve Chu and his senior management team spent two days earlier this month confronting the over-arching issues facing the Lab in a fiscally constrained, competitive environment. To ensure long-term prosperity, they concluded, "business as usual" cannot continue, and fundamental changes in Lab culture must occur. In tomorrow's edition of The View, Chu will discuss the challenges the Lab faces and the goals that his team has set to be achieved over the next two years.
