A paper written by the researchers details their findings and has been published online by Science magazine. It will appear in the magazine's print publication on Feb. 8. Other members of the HMS team who contributed to the paper include Alan Engelman, Yair Benita and Ramnik J. Xavier.

About the Genome-wide RNAi Global Initiative

The Genome-Wide RNAi Global Initiative is an alliance of leading international biomedical researchers, established to increase and accelerate the utility of human genome-wide siRNA libraries. The RNAi Global Initiative provides a forum for member institutions to share research protocols, establish experimental standards and develop mechanisms for exchanging and comparing screening data. Membership is open to not-for-profit biomedical research institutions across North America, Europe and Asia. The RNAi Global Initiative is being coordinated under the auspices of the RNA Technologies product team within Thermo Fisher Scientific. Its members include the Campbell Family Institute for Breast Cancer Research at Princess Margaret Hospital and Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute at Mount Sinai Hospital, both with The University of Toronto; Cancer Research UK (CRUK) at the London Research Institute and the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR); The German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ); Eppley Cancer Center at the University of Nebraska Medical Center; Netherlands Cancer Institute (NKI); The Division of Pathway Medicine at the University of Edinburgh Medical School; the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center; Yale University; the University of Texas M.
