About
I'm a dermatologist and have 4 grandchildren. About a decade ago, I was working for a company called CSRI, Int. where I discovered that one can isolate intact RNA(s) from human skin by tape stripping the area of the skin that is diseased or normal appearing. This was a surprising finding since it was thought that one could not do this because RNAses existed on the skin and that these enzymes would destroy any nucleic acids located on the integument before this RNA could be isolated and characterized.
