Hi Joshua, and the whole Yahoo group,

The original plan was to release funding to Dr. Faustman in August 2006, two years after JoinLeeNow was created.  We’re ahead of that schedule and are in final negotiations with Mass General Hospital. 

Keep in mind, however, that the project has pre-clinical aspects which must be successfully managed before the clinical trial can begin.  Please stay tuned to www.joinleenow.org or our monthly electronic newsletter, e-Lee, for updates.  (If you’re not on our email list please let visit http://www.joinleenow.org/html/contact.php to sign up.)

Thanks for your continued support of The Iacocca Foundation and JoinLeeNow.

Sincerely,

Does anyone know when Dr. Nathan's human trials are expected
to start?  (Or any other human trials based on Dr. Faustman's
work.)  If they have an official start date, that would
be great, but if it is an estimate (like "this summer" or
"early next year") that is fine, also.

I'm putting together a web page of all recent and near future
human trials for type-1 diabetes cures, and would like to add
his trial to the list.
