is this Dr. Ron McKay? If so, he's one heck of a scientist! And like Sheryl, I wonder if this is to produce dopamine for the treatment of PD?

You know, of course,in a totally different study, this is the same cells (RPE's) that I had transplanted from a donor eye. I didn't have rejection or have to take immunosuppresant drugs because of the encapsulated "gellatin beads" used to deliver the RPE's to the substania nigra/caudate.

thanks for posting this.
