Scientists working out of the Memorial
Sloan-Ketting Cancer Center have singled out a new cellular oncogene. Say what?
Seeing as this is a video game blog, we'll keep this short & sweet: "Oncogenes are genes that, when mutated or
dysfunctional, lead normal cells to become cancerous." The scientists have named this recently discovered
oncogene, POKEMON (for POK Erythroid Myeloid Ontogenic factor). So yes, no need to fret, your little
Pokemon addiction is safe, we suppose.
