Thank you for posting this. It is inspirational yet I do also see the point that we have heard all this before.
What I think is interesting is that:
1.) She's was 14 when she started this whole process. Now, she is 17-years-old. What does that say about the intellegence of the rest of the scientists out there in the United States? Why was this not discovered sooner by a more advanced scientist? I can't believe that a 17-year-old is smarter than most of the scientists out there?
2.) She is an immigrant. I always believed in my heart that major developments would not come from the U.S. or from natural born citizens. Now, this may not be a major development but for 17 the girl has brains. I admire her.
I am a U.S. citizen, but I think that the reason more has not been done to solve any diseases is because of money. Money is prevention/treatment is much larger than actually curing the problem. I think that if someone else would have made this development, they would have surely got a patent (sp?) on it to make their own millions from it. God Bless this girl.
