    Sounds interesting despite the mouse bit! Will you be keeping up to date on this?

    very exciting! how long does it usually take for things that are successful for mice to make their way to human trials, and then how long does it take after that before people like us can get it?

    Hi,

    i visited the laboratory of Montpellier (France), and i was told that the time needed to pass from mice to human test was about 10 years.. less if they had enough money to have rats, and even less if they had monkeys. The better still being money to lead these tests in order to be shortest.

    Brad,

    Unfortunately, as has been noted, it can take a long time…if it ever does progress. I’m told that researchers are found of saying “mice exaggerate and monkeys lie.” This is why I rarely write about mouse studies. I think most of them give false hope.
