Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
RSV is a retrovirus that contains two copies of a plus-strand RNA genome. Its genome consists of four main open...

Gene Therapy

Gene Therapy

Gene therapy is a technique where a gene is inserted into a person’s cells to prevent or treat a serious disease. The added gene may be a healthy version of the gene that is mutated in the patient, or it could be a different gene that inactivates or compensates for the patient’s disease-causing gene. For example, in patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) due to a mutation in the gene for the enzyme adenosine deaminase, a functioning version of the gene can be inserted. The...

Gene Regulation in Microbial Communities: Quorum Sensing

Gene Regulation in Microbial Communities: Quorum Sensing

Quorum sensing is a mechanism of bacterial communication that enables coordinated gene expression in response to changes in population density. This facilitates collective behaviors that enhance survival, resource acquisition, and ecological adaptation. This process relies on small signaling molecules called autoinducers that accumulate as bacterial populations grow. When a critical threshold concentration of autoinducers is reached, bacterial cells collectively modify gene expression,...

Cancer-Critical Genes I: Proto-oncogenes

Cancer-Critical Genes I: Proto-oncogenes

Genes usually encode proteins necessary for the proper functioning of a healthy cell. Mutations can often cause changes to the gene expression pattern, thereby altering the phenotype.
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
Such genes that act...

Summary

Robert M. Guion, a pioneer in Industrial-Organizational (I-O) psychology, significantly advanced personnel testing and assessment. His work emphasized integrity and the ethical application of psychology to improve workplace human welfare.

Area of Science:

Industrial-Organizational Psychology
Psychometric Measurement
Organizational Behavior

Background:

Robert M. Guion (1924-2012) made significant contributions to Industrial-Organizational (I-O) psychology.
He earned his doctorate from Purdue University, specializing in I-O psychology.
Guion joined Bowling Green State University (BGSU) in 1952, where he developed graduate programs and mentored future leaders.

Discussion:

Guion's research focused on personnel testing and assessment, influencing graduate education and professional practice.
He received the James McKeen Cattell Award for research design twice.
His seminal texts, "Personnel Testing" (1965) and "Assessment, Measurement, and Prediction for Personnel Decisions" (1998), are foundational in the field.
