      I noticed in today's Wall Street Journal that the immunological center at Memorial Sloan Kettering was the recipient of a 90 million dollar grant from shipping magnate Daniel Ludwig.   Dr Wolchok is quoted as saying the magnitude of the grant will be "transformative"– and that it will support trials of new immunological agents.  It's not quite the cavalry to the rescue–too slow for that –but terrific news, regardless.
