Default Ceregene update...

There was some discussion several weeks ago about this next step but our efforts were not yet public. See this update about MJFF funding the long-term follow-up of phase II trial participants.

Best, Debi

Default new paradigm

I think this is one of the best examples of how our research world has changed for the better with the advent of the Michael J Fox Foundation.

In the past, it is almost certain that the results of this trial would have been shelved, the path followed no further. Instead, initial disappointment did not block further investigation.

If something is there, researchers will find it.

Thanks Carey! It may even be the first time that a "failed study" got more funds to continue~!!! I am sure these new studies/analyses help in better understanding of gene therapy approach to PD. Thanks MJFF and Ceregene for taking this path, looks like a road to cure......
