share your view as too where we are at in terms of a cure for Parkinson's 1990NYboy. Gene Therapy appears to be the next step along the way too a cure, as we approach the Embryonic and Nano Medicine era. Fiona raised a concern I hadn't thought about (visions of raving mutant organisms rebelling against what they were designated to do and ending up as FDA agents or cloned Hugo Chavez socialists.)

Neurologix is one I have been following closely since their success with Nathan Klein and others in 2003. And those trials only involved one side of the brain. The fact that their research team had a New Zealand scientist involved at the top level was exciting, and too hear Neurologix had been granted fast track status in March 08 means their is much too look forward to.
