Hi Lurking,
One way to get an idea of what type of compound it is, is do a search on the author. You find they tend to publish papers all around the main topic, and you frequently get some good clues. I have tried this, but can only find different versions of the original announcement. I did find a statement that human trials will begin in 2 years.
Sorry I did not see your post on the topic, Siberia by the way is part of Russia i think. It was part of the Soviet Union.
I will be on holiday from today for a week. I got up today at 3-00am!!!
