Just a reminder - neurturin (NTN) is a neurotrophic factor in the same family as GDNF. Amgen has denied us its synthetic gdnf - to our great anger & disappointment. But NTN may prove to work as well as GDNF. Time - and clinical trials - will tell.

Thanks to all the folks who are in clinical trials or considering joining one! It's easy to find an excuse not to join one - and many people talk about the importance of clinical trials but never join one. It takes courage and time and energy and effort to take part in clinical trials. I salute those of you who do!
