Indeed. Not the same thing.
For drug discovery …!!! Hell yeah…!!!
We can get effective treatment out of it…!!! What do u think…!!!
This is already what i posted.
“The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the Salk Institute for Biological Studies will co-lead a $15.4 million effort to develop new systems for quickly screening libraries of drugs for potential effectiveness against schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, the National Institute of Mental Health announced today.”
They are also using stem cells to develop new drugs.
“With the recent advance of induced pluripotent stem cell, or iPSC, technology, researchers are able to use donated cells, such as skin cells, from a patient and convert them into any other cell type, such as neurons. Generating human neurons in a dish that are genetically similar to those of patients offers researchers a potent tool for studying these diseases and developing much-needed new therapies.”
It could lead to better treatments but its gonna take some time.
They say the research is gonna complete within 5 years… lets wait and watch… we have to be hopeful…!!!
