Amazing results-- yes. But also outrageous that this research has been sitting on the shelves for over 10 years, when maybe all it needed was a little more time. Frrom thenews release:
"Dr. Eidelberg said that the Parkinson’s community basically forgot about the research and turned their attention to other promising techniques. "

Forgot about a potential cure for PD????
How many other promising treatments are on the shelf -- prematurly declared "failures"?
GDNF is one of them.
Or did the controversy over using fetal tissue cells the real reason the research was "forgotten?
Kudos to these ressearchers who continued to follow up on the trial participats.
i will look for the journal article for more info
