The
DNA Microarray:
Exploring
the potential of personalized treatment of leukemia through microarray assisted
gene expression profiling. 
The
treatment of leukemia is complicated by the heterogynous characteristics and
progression of the disease from patient to patient. To that end gene
expression profiling has been actively researched. In the links above, a
number of studies are highlighted to exhibit the potential of this
technique. The studies represent only a fraction of the current research
in this field.
