Due to the transfer of this project effort from to )there was a significant portion of the initial contract time devoted to establishing the new laboratory, i.e., new screened room, and other general requirements for the establishment of a functioning biological laboratory. However, the time delay for direct project effort is being compensated for by experimentation being conducted after normal working hours and on weekends at no additional COCTETS cost to the Government.

STATUS: STATUS:

Tne small general purpose computer necassary for data analysis has caused some probiens slowing down the effort with regard to results thus far. However, the technique does continue to appear promising though the problem of individual differences is provina knottier than expected. A detailed component analysis procram could elucidate this, but that might cause the long range prooram to slop by possibly up to six or more months.
