Well, we shall see how easy it is to reduce
the number of posts!--I have found that the
internet, and specifically this virtual
invesment club we have here on SI, to be
incredibly addictive. Even though I know I
am just barely scraching the surface, I cant
tell you how satisfying it is to read some
press release, sort through a biotech thread
for more of the puzzle, and then fly off to
the glossary of my text book to decode an
abstract.
If what you have said before is true--filter
out the scams, dogma and the hype, and then
focus on science that remains...well, then
this endeavor may just pay off years from now.
A big thank-you goes to you for helping point
in the right direction. Thanks also for that
list of names you dropped off.
By the way, in a few days I'll have sort of a first
approximation/overview on Isis done for the new
Cancer thread, please feel free to drop by and
help assess the situation as it clarifies--I don't
yet have the foggiest idea what antisense oligonucleotides
are all about, but I'll give it a try.
