Let's make sure we recruit as many as possible, making this the most relevant research on POIS to date.

Any update on the research? It's September already and no news have come out. I'm really worried that the investigation is not going to commence due to the illness not seen as important or due to low funding or other issues. This illness is very self destructive and so incredibly rare that I feel the medical community have an issue identitying it.

All is going according to estimates... that is, for medical research... everything is very, very slooooooooooow.


Just think about fibromyalgia... which is not at all a rare disease.   It took over a decade just to be recognized.

NORD signed the contract for the science to start, so now the researchers are just waiting on the first money to be deposited to order equipment for the POIS study.

Is there a list of what organizations or doctors are currently studying POIS, if any? Do we have something to look forward to? I know you guys raised a lot of money for research. Is that still ongoing?

Great Research News!

From:        Dr. Nicole Prause
cc:             Dr. Tierney Lorenz
Subject:    Scientists, start your engines!


Hi Demo,

We officially have the grant funds in the accounts to spend them! I've started prepping my lab space and will begin equipment orders. I now need to hire the research assistant and do a bunch of testing, so do not expect enrollment for at least another month, but we are officially green-lit...totally...finally. :)

Thank you for your patience and have a good weekend!

Nicole Prause, Ph.D.
