Good News! But nothing to cause any SCI to start shopping for running shoes. Nor any reason to check the news every morning.

Wow, I'm surprised. I thought they were already in Phase I trials. I looked back at their website and found the following:

The Clinical Trials Initiative is The Miami Project’s efforts to carefully take new discoveries from the laboratory to clinical trials. The Clinical Trials Initiative was started in 2004 and is aimed at creating the infrastructure needed to gain approval for and to conduct clinical trials at the University of Miami affiliated hospitals.

8 years and god knows how much money to get into phase I trials with 8 sub-acute patients. I think there is a lack of urgency there. Everybody's getting paid every week and are content with status quo.

I mean, I know UM is doing good work, but I'm thinking few if any of the researchers there expect to see a cure in their lifetime.

Thank God, we have Dr. Young! He's crazy enough to try to "cure" us in our lifetimes. Even better, he's working closely with people in China who agree with him.
