Jay Bradner: Open-source cancer research
http://www.ted.com How does cancer know it's cancer? At Jay Bradner's
lab, they found a molecule that might hold the answer, JQ1 -- and
instead of patenting JQ1, they published their findings and mailed
samples to 40 other labs to work on. An inspiring look at the
open-source future of medical research.


Awesome. This is so rare.
Way to go!

Regards,
Arun
