    Thanks, Laura

    This is exciting.  I had become lax about reading the Sloan Kettering newsletter because nothing was pertinent.

    Cool! I voluntarily contributed my own DNA to the Kaiser Genotyping database a couple of years ago.They are part of the national project to build a human genome atlas. Glad to see participants are making good use of the data.

    It is good to see reassurance that endometrial cancers are being studied.

    Thanks! To be honest, I had forgotten all about it. I found a link to the Kaiser project. Looks like Kaiser members in California may still participate although I am not sure.
