Interesting. McMaster University is one of the leading research schools in Canada.

So I was at McMaster today and asked my doctor about this. He said that while there are lots of great discoveries like this out there, it is years if ever that anything comes of it. He said it is really discouraging how hard it is to get new drugs approved. This is due to all of the legal ramifications nowadays. He said there has been many a drug that shows real promise at being able to help people but because of some very rare, extreme side effect never see the light of day. But they keep trying, thank God!!! Maybe some day...
