April 12, 2009 - This is the first time I have updated this particular page in over 3 years. The reason I am doing it now is that a very smart woman named Dominique Appleby and I are going to work with an amazing person named Dr, Raymond F. Schinazi.
Google him and you will see what I mean when I call him amazing.
We say say much more on CMF - 1 as time progresse; but I just wanted to get going with this short note.
