If you were not a serious ORG, u wouldn’t get a grant from the GATE’S foundation. But, ur promise is too loud n too far apart (how many would have died b4 the cure u said is available, becomes available?)
think along with the sufferers n be definate so that we don’t get disappointed in the end or hope in vain.
Thanks allthesame for the wonderful job.

Hi Dr Broylesr,

I am glad to learn about the leaps and bounds you are making in trying to get a cure for malaria. I am an active medical Dr in Uganda, currently living and working in Public Health – in Canada. I am affiliated to a hospital in Uganda and I believe I am strategically located to help in the clinical trials and therapeutic stages when they commence. I will be honored to share my knowledge & perspective in mitigating the the impact of SCD on individuals, families, communities and in indeed nationally and globally.

Keep up the good work.
NB: I noticed you shifted the timeliness, I am glad you are still pursuing the research.

Dr John

We will keep our progress posted on this website and let everyone know when and where clinical trials will start. We anticipate starting the first clinical trials in mid-2012. The pre-clinical trials in mice are going well.
