Thank you Jim for your wonderful work, your endless optimism, and also for introducing me to the PIEN list in March of 1996. You are invaluable to all of us. THANKS AGAIN, JIM CORDY! I would like to know if there is interest among the medical and bioscience educators, researchers, physicians and health professionals who are LISTMEMBERS, in forming a biomedical science sub-group, or sub-list. We could regularly exchange and meet to discuss our thoughts on the effort to understand and cure PD and related dopamine-deficiency disorders. We could form a sub-group to interact regularly with those who represent us at the NIH. This would be especially helpful for those who are more home-bound, and have ideas to contriibute to the great group Jim describes at the NIH. Jim, what do you think??
