Brain Cancer Vaccine offers hope

It makes me wonder why I had to dig through Yahoo! News to find this article. But then again not everyone is a reader like me, who actually enjoys reading about clinical studies, psychology and trials.

Regardless, this article is interesting and I thought it'd be worth sharing.

It's not as radical as finding the cure for cancer by frying cells with radio frequencies and hot gold (which got me all excited) but this is a step in the right direction.

I often wonder about the pace of advance in fighting diseases and injuries.

If the disease is going to kill the person anyways, safety should be less of a concern than it presently is.

There shouldn't be all this tedium about control groups - the ones who get the placebo - either. The control group is everyone who has already died from the disease.
