Yay!!! That's very cool news :) I hope it works for humans too!!! *grin*

ladybrannon January 28 2005, 16:53:30 UTC

This is great. It's nice to see all these recent reports of research. *feels all warm inside*

alinora January 28 2005, 16:57:50 UTC

Definitely! And it's WONDERFUL to see some good news on something that appears to have a positive effect, at least in animals.

ladybrannon January 28 2005, 17:01:20 UTC

Well, it's not like they are going to let them do it on us! :P

Did you see the article a while back saying that all the Stem Cell lines in the US were comprimised. *sigh* All I can think about when I see that is about the Brits research on the subject and how successful they've been.

This is AWESOME! And this is why molecular biology research is so damned important! EXCELLENT! Thanks for sharing!!! :-)

*hugs you*

ladybrannon January 28 2005, 17:01:58 UTC

*hugs you back* I was hoping you'd see this. I was so excited, and I knew you would be too. The lab geek in us! :P

indigochild76 January 28 2005, 20:00:30 UTC

How could I not be??? New discoveries in molecular biology are always fascinating! It's cool too because their approach is very similar to ours where I work... albeit we are looking for things associated with diabetes and other metabolic disorders. This is WAY cool and I can't wait to hear what happens once it's gone clinical! WOOHOO!!! YAY for science and YAY for geeks like us! :-)

*hugs you*

*hugs you back* If I see anything more, I'll be sure to let you know!

WOW
question about the icon - do they make/sell those bracelets?

ladybrannon January 28 2005, 17:41:59 UTC

Yep. Or they did. I'm not sure where all you can get them though...I guess you can check with www.lupus.org.

ladybrannon January 28 2005, 17:42:35 UTC

Ummm, yeah. Still available.
On the front page of www.lupus.org. :)

jbmanning January 28 2005, 18:06:32 UTC

very cool - thanks

bug_girl75 January 29 2005, 00:52:40 UTC

Very cool, hey... lets see if they can use the same technique in humans...
Maybe I should've taken that sequencing job, after all...?

ladybrannon January 29 2005, 00:54:57 UTC

I have everything crossed! :P

bug_girl75 January 29 2005, 01:00:15 UTC

You and me both!

I loved your page ladyB! (Nymph from GH just to clear the confusion away) All colorful and interesting. And thanks for the beta'd .doc back, 25 would be soon on its way.

ladybrannon June 5 2005, 23:32:18 UTC

Hi there! I wondered if you had a LJ! :D

*goes to add Nymph to her f-list*

tania_patronus June 6 2005, 09:50:11 UTC

I just got it very recently after recieving a lot of pokes from my ff.net friends. ;)

ladybrannon June 6 2005, 12:10:59 UTC

Cool! I'm glad to hear it! :D
