<<... a cure for cancer and reversal of human aging.>>

There is a problem. Telomerase studies should be important for understanding of immortalization, the first step from normal to cancer cell. But would you wish to make this step voluntary if someone promise you potential immortality? You will die from cancer much earlier than from aging. Significant reversal of human aging may be even theoretically impossible.
Anyway, medical application of telomerase, excluding may be diagnostic, is rather dream than reality. Diagnostics should be developed, approved, and, BTW be competewtive to the others.
Some important med-biological applications do exist, but I am not sure general public is informed about them.

TV impressed public made 17$ peak. Who is holding this stock now at 13?

Best wishes.
