passport when he arrived and
returned It to him when he left,
Dr. Reisner said.
"They treated me very
warmly," he said of his Soviet
hosts. "They took me to a recep-
tion room, offered me drinks. I
was the guest of the minister of
health. I had a chauffeur. I was
taken to Leningrad on a sight-
seeing trip when I finished my
work."
Dr. Reisner's work consisted
of cleaning donated bone mar-
row by exposing it to lectin, a
chemical extracted from
peanuts. This process removes
the T-cells which would other-
• wise cause graft-versus-host dis-
ease, a fatal condition in which
the body rejects the transplant.
Grafts fron an identical -sibling
donor will not cause rejection.
"Two clinicians would bring
me a liter of marrow," said Dr.
Reisner, "and I would work on it
for six to eight hours. Then I
would give it back to them and
they would inject it into the
patient."
Three of the four patients he
treated have survived, he said.
Dr. Reisner's presence in Mos-
cow gave the Soviets an oppor-
tunity to learn his techniques.
"The Soviets are very much be-
hind in this field. I was working
and teaching them how to do it.
I had my own lab there which I
built up."
Dr. Reisner, 38, did not visit
the Chernobyl site during his
stay. Nor is he aware of how the
nuclear accident affected the
Jews of the Kiev area. "I don't
know anything more than you
do," he said.
The Israel-born biophysicist
received his Ph.D. degree at the
Weizmann Institute. Since 1983,
he has been the incumbent of
the Dr. Phil Gold Chair in
cancer research at Weizmann.
He is currently applying his
bone marrow research toward
the treatment of leukemia.
"If we can solve the problem
of leukemia, I believe that the
road will be open to curing other
kinds of cancers, like breast
cancer and melanoma."

Religious Texts
Jerusalem — A publication
entitled A Collection of Ethio-
pian Jewish Texts, comprising
facsimile copies of basic non-
Biblical works of Ethiopian reli-
gious tradition, was presented
recently to priests and elders of
the Ethiopian Jewish commu-
nity in Israel by officials of the
Ben-Zvi Institute for the Study
of Jewish Communities.
The collection, mostly in the
Ethiopian ritual language of
Ge'ez but also with some mate-
rial translated into Hebrew and
two documents in the Ethiopian
popular language of Amharic,
consists of basic works of prayer,
religious law, Midrash and other
material that has been used by
the kesim for generations to
teach the people.
