Nobel Prize in Medicine Awarded to U.S. and British Scientists

[jayem]

This is Nobel month. (Alfred Nobel was born in October.) The first prize announced is typically the Medicine/Physiology award. This year, it goes to 2 American and one British researcher who independently worked out the mechanisms by which cells respond to low oxygen levels. This has an important practical application. Many solid tumors, such as breast, colon, and pancreatic cancers grow in oxygen-deficient environments. If the way malignant cells adapt to such an environment can be blocked, it could be a new therapeutic weapon against some common cancers.

So your solution is to feed cancers oxygen so they can grow faster.

That's a horrible idea. Why do you want people to die horrible deaths?

You should have written your paper up and beat these guys to the Nobel prize. Maybe even contributing to saving many lives.

You time is probably better spent making ignorant comments on the internet though.

Well played.

That would have been plagiarist activity (the papers were already written a century ago.
And yes, they did contribute to saving many lives. But being blacklisted, by the over all controllers of money and power, they did not get to let more people know.
