I really do not think that anyone would ever find a cure for cancer or if i were found that the medical profession would completely release it. Way too much money is involved. Think about it, if a cure for cancer was ever found, look at all the researchers that would be out of a job and the billions of dollars that wouldnt be given in research anymore. It is like the 100 mile per gallon car, the big 3 or the petrolium companies have the plans, but do you really think they are going to let that out?

>>Take a look also to http://members.ud.com/projects/cancer/ - Cancer Research project. It's up to you what research project to join, but I think currently cancer is more important than search for aliens.
