This is an FGF-1 trial. It’s a growth hormone for growing new blood vessels. It was originally used to grow new blood vessels to heart. The results were promising there? And now they want to apply the same technique in the brain, to see what it can do for Parkinson’s.

They have already done one study with Parkinson’s patients, and all of them showed improvement.

The downside appears to be very low, and the upside is improvement.

I'm visiting the lab Monday. It's a brick and mortar in Reno, Nevada.
