In this week's issue:
	Team Describes Elusive Replication Machinery of Flu Viruses Researchers from the Wilson, Carragher and Potter labs used cutting-edge molecular biology and electron-microscopy techniques to “see” one of influenza’s essential protein complexes in unprecedented detail.
	Department Reorganization Aims to Support Faculty, Build on Institute’s Strengths “I am very excited about the transformations to come and about working with the new departmental leadership,” said TSRI President and CEO Michael A. Marletta.
	Scientists Identify a Potential Cause of Parkinson’s Disease that May Lead to New Treatment Options In a hopeful development, scientists from the Conti lab have pinpointed a key factor controlling damage to brain cells in a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease.
	Study Points to Potential New Therapies for Cancer and Other Diseases By revealing a novel but widespread cell signaling process, the Sauer lab may have found a way to manipulate an important component of the immune system into more effectively fighting disease.
	Researchers Uncover a Novel Cooperative Effort to Stop Cancer Spread Researchers from the Phinney lab have uncovered a group of what have been considered relatively minor regulators in the body that band together to suppress the spread of cancer from its primary site.
	Kudos: Four TSRI Scientists—Phil Baran, Hollis Cline, J. Lindsay Whitton, and Jin-Quan Yu—Elected AAAS Fellows; Krista Bluske, Christopher Haga and Valentina Lo Sardo Awarded Stem Cell Fellowships
