I agree with lurkingforacure. I don't see a sense of urgency. It seems to me that if we were properly organized we could have this sort of work completed in weeks, not years. Of course, the outcome might not be successful, but we could assess potential therapies much quicker. I think it was Conductor71 who contrasted the war on Parkinson's with the building of the first atomic bomb, which was designed, built and used in 6 years.
Scaling up could be a problem: the ultrasound waves will have to travel about 10 times further in a human than for a mouse. John

is that if the therapy is not very expensive or does not involve very complicated delivery (ie brain surgery to implant electrodes or catheters) studies will go nowhere. Unless MJF is involved. And what has ever happened to Andy Grove?
