Hi Pattty (our librarian)it always is nice to see your postings. Thanks for refreshen our minds in regards to nantotechnology. Dr. Curley, MD Anderson, has been conducting studies on mice for a few years now. Sure wish for things to hurry up but, I research takes years and years before finally it reaches the patient.
Thanks again Patty, and please stay with us a bit longer this time.
Hugs
MarionAn update on nanotechnology popped up today, see:
I think it is interesting that someone from outside the field of medical research could come up with this, it makes me wonder how important the approach to research is, i.e. was he successful because he did not have the same preconceived notions that someone inside the field would have and was thus able to look at the problem from another perspective? It makes me think about another story I saw about video gamers solving a science problem, see:

I took the liberty of doing some more searching and here is a link to a 2007 item featuring Mr. Davis, the glacial pace of research can be very frustrating:
