In addition to providing a possible cure for insulin-dependent diabetes that's ethically permissible, it also has a plain old "gee whiz" factor to it. :)<br /><br />I hope to generate more interest in the Public Library of Science. People should be able to see how science gets published; their taxes pay for an awful lot of it, and they have a lot of talking heads tell them why they should support space shuttle missions, NIH funding, etc. But until now you needed to pay a pretty penny for subscriptions or belong a hospital, university or corporation that subscribed to these places.

It's always nice to see how we don't necessarily have to compromise morality for practicality. That may be the first significant work I've read about that specifically addresses Type I diabetes from an autoimmune angle...
