(news item) Science 27 Oct 1995;572: The Neurosciences Institute, privately funded and staffed with 32 hand-picked full-time researchers, opened its brand-new home near La Jolla, California, on October 15. Headed by Nobel Laureate Gerald Edelman, NSI will work on some problems germane to PD, for example the mechanism, genetic or environmental, which guides reproducing neurons to develop progeny that make or use dopamine. (I'm no expert, and unsure anyone here is interested in this scientific prospect for an eventual PD cure, but if asked I'll be glad to parade my meager knowledge.) Cheers, Joe J. R.
