T REX DNA

[Erik B Pauls <erik@uclink.berkeley.edu>]

Much of the work on these specimens is being done by Horner's student, 
Mary Schweitzer. When she spoke here last year they had only isolated 
about 200 base pairs through PCR. It appears that that number has 
increased quite a bit if Horner has found similarities to bird DNA. 
Schweitzer will be presenting this work at the SVPs next month. I expect the 
session will be well attended!
