Maybe someone in our little group might be interested in requesting a few million dollars for this study: ------------------------------------ The National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), National Institute on Aging (NIA), National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), and National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) are interested in facilitating investigator-initiated research designed to deal with symptoms associated with chronic neurological conditions including stroke, epilepsy, brain and spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease. The overall goals are to manage symptoms effectively, to prevent secondary effects of the condition when possible, to maximize the health potential, and to improve the health-related quality of life for patients, caregivers, and families. ----------------------------------------- More details can be found here: http://web.fie.com/htdoc/fed/nih/gen/any/proc/any/02279804.htm ---------------------------------------- If you win the award for the study you have to take me out to lunch.
