It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it.

Polish cancer specialists, with little resources at hand, have to be resourceful! Cisplatin is a standard drug used in treating women with breast cancer. What Szczecin doctors have done is to target use according to the women's genetic make-up and they have had startlingly good results which are set to revolutionize their area of specialism.

true, they have started it or rather started collecting the data at least 10 years ago.

I have no link:). Just my words.

Thats what I thought.

Its great that Polish scientists are working on this and its great to appreciate the work they are doing - but lets keep it in perspective.

Every little helps as they say, hopefully we are getting closer.

Not a riveting read, but you get used to this sort of literature after a while.

Hey !! I has brians too.

Also, 2009 and a randomised trail involving 25 women does not a summer make.
