Where this comes from

Abstract

Having originally researched the activities of the potent hematopeotic stimulator of bone-marrow cells, granulocyte colony stimulating factor, Shigekazu Nagata is better known for his work on apoptosis. Here, one of Japan's most renowned biomedical scientists outlines the path that has taken him full circle: from stimulating cells to grow, to finding out how they die, to tying the two processes together.
