- Abstract:
  The article focuses on the study conducted by Hideyuki Okano, a neuroscientist at the Keio University School of Medicine, concerning mutant genes of marmosets in Tokyo, Japan. Okano has introduced green fluorescent protein (GFP) genes that would be used as biological markers in identifying neurodegenerative diseases. It states that the standard gene-transfer procedures were effective for the reproductive cycles of the animal.
