Stroke is different because you have to convince people who have studied the brain that they know jackshit about it and they should listen to their rats. Amy Farber was diagnosed with a very rare disease, LAM,
lymph-angiolio-myomatosis. She co-invented a revoluntionary web service
with MIT Media Lab that enables patients to participate in the search
for their own cures. For the past five years Farber has been battling
not only her own disease but also
the wall of resistance erected by those who believe that a patient can
make about as much of a meaningful contribution to the process of
scientific discovery as a laboratory rat.
