BLACKSBURG, Virginia, Aug. 10 -- Virginia Tech issued the following news:
While engaging in cell division research, Silke Hauf and members of her lab made a surprisingly quiet discovery.
When cells express RNA, there are always some fluctuations, or noise, in how much RNA is produced. Hauf's group found several genes whose noise dips below a previously established minimum threshold, known as the noise floor, during expression
"We have solid data f . . .
