Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Can't see the article right now but if it's anything like what I think has happened here then this is a prohibitively expensive, dangerous procedure with a tiny success rate
But maybe it is as good as it sounds!!! that would rock

Your fuckin' family's dug into the Southie projects like ticks. You, however, grew up on the North Shore, huh? Well, la-di-fuckin'-da. You were kind of a double kid, I bet, right? Huh? One kid with your old man, one kid with your mother. You're upper-middle class during the weeks, then you're droppin' your "R"s and you're hangin' in the big, bad Southie projects with your daddy on the weekends. I got that right?
According to Google news, that's the only place reporting the story so far. I can't get the page to load myself, are they saying the results are published in a journal?
Doctors who carried out a stem cell transplant on an HIV-infected man with leukaemia in 2007 say they now believe the man to have been cured of HIV infection as a result of the treatment, which introduced stem cells which happened to be resistant to HIV infection.
The man received bone marrow from a donor who had natural resistance to HIV infection; this was due to a genetic profile which led to the CCR5 co-receptor being absent from his cells. The most common variety of HIV uses CCR5 as its ‘docking station’, attaching to it in order to enter and infect CD4 cells, and people with this mutation are almost completely protected against infection.
The case was first reported at the 2008 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Boston, and Berlin doctors subsequently published a detailed case history in the New England Journal of Medicine in February 2009.
They have now published a follow-up report in the journal Blood, arguing that based on the results of extensive tests, “It is reasonable to conclude that cure of HIV infection has been achieved in this patient.”
Cool, now AIDS is funny! We can make AIDS jokes now!
We weren't supposed to before? Oops!
Oh, the other week in chem lab we were recording the smells of some chemical and my partner goes
"What's it smell like"
me: "eggs"
her: "AIDs?!"
Me: "eggs!"
How did she think I could smell aids?

Too bad CCR5 absence is only found in like 1% of the Caucasian population and not to any significant degree among any other populations. Not a lot of stem cell donors capable of meeting the criteria.

is cancer next

If this pans out, though, it will be an amazing thing
still, it's pretty awesome
