Does anyone still wonder why there are not better treatments in light of the other doc's comment to the effect that 35% of the group improving is not enough, you need more of the group improved before this could be a "potentially viable" treatment? Please.

35% if way more than many drugs on the market help today! Stem cells are not a drug so no pharma is going to want to fund their development and in fact, well, let's not even go there. It's too ugly.

Until researchers accept that PD can have multiple causes and the "one pill fits all" approach will NEVER work for us, things will stay the same. Thank heavens the folks in Australia are thinking outside of the box with their figure-8 magnetic brain device. Maybe these guys in Kentucky will ignore the nay-sayers and keep on plugging with this promising work.
