This switch in thought processes can't come too soon for stroke. But I bet not a single stroke leader will think of putting this into practice for solving all the problems in stroke. Our current stroke leadership is non-existent. We should be growing all the different types of neurons along with a blood supply to nourish them. There is the request for proposal to researchers. Send it out to find out what the cost would be to find answers and then go grant writing to get foundations to pay for that research. It's so fucking simple to accomplish stroke solutions. You describe the problem in specific terms that researchers will be able to create clinical trials on. None of this pie-in-sky research.
Damn it all: stroke is easy; 5 steps.
1. Describe the problems exactly. There are tens of
thousands of pieces of research already hinting at solutions, just need
followup.
2. Write thousands of RFPs to researchers/MIT grads to solve those problems.
3. Fund them with foundation grants.
4. Write stroke rehab protocols based on the research.
5. Get the Nobel prize in medicine.
Soon we'll cure diseases with a cell, not a pill
Current medical treatment boils down to six words: Have disease, take pill, kill something. But physician Siddhartha Mukherjee points to a future of medicine that will transform the way we heal.
