3. A Study of Blood Clotting Response in Patients with a Traumatic Injury

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to look at the blood’s clotting response in people who have suffered a traumatic injury and compare it with non-injured people.

4. Defining the Immunologic Profile of Sentinel Lymph Nodes and Identifying the Mechanisms Responsible for Immunosuppression

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to look at the effects cancer and melanoma have on the immune cells found in lymph nodes.

5. A Study of the Bacteria Found in Cancerous and Non-cancerous Breast Tissue
