Amazing development, Barry - and by your colleagues at Cambridge University!
I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned on the news (at least we didn't catch it).

It is amazing what advances there have been in medical science in the last 100 years or so. It is only 80 years since Madame Curie died. What a misery it must have been to be ill even 200 years ago.
