the other day i was reading an article in the newspaper about a group of Harvard scientist who wanted to find a cure for diabetes. They were in the process of running tests on mice. The scientist were trying to convert pancreatic cells into cells that make insulin. They also spoke about another scientist who had been able to convert the cells but it took more steps for it to occur. The Harvard team wanted to make sure that the test they were running were a hundred percent save before they even tried to test it on humans. The results of the mice were positive it seemed to work. However they still didn't feel safe. The scientist were hoping to start the experiment on humans in about 5 years. You never know it might work. Maybe we can find a cure for diabetes today and maybe tomorrow we can find a cure for cancer. Medicine works in weird ways. It just keeps building and building. There is always some new type of disease or cold that the do tors are trying to cure.
