Hi, I am one of the scientists working on the project.
We had a lot of discussion on the project about defensive strategies to avoid any issue, since we are dealing with a massive industry. We don't have a definitive protocol yet, so this is why it is not publish. But if you want more details, I would be happy to answer your questions.
- chaps 5y agoI've seen a lot of projects like yours with the purest of goals never get past this stage because, simply, nobody makes the first move. It's almost like the attention gets in the way of publication. Either that, or there was never anything there, and it was just good PR from the beginning. Your project is too damn important to let this happen. Please find or do whatever you have to do in order to publish what needs to be published. If that means taking a leap of faith, please, for the love of goodness, please do it.
- YHK 5y agoIt is a risk, I agree. I can assure you that there is work done in the lab, and that we plan to publish it, one way or another. I personally think that bioRxiv can be perfect to do a fast publication.
- YHK 5y agoI forgot to mention it, but there is also FDA requirement to how we disclose the protocol. Usually it is patented process, so we are looking to see how we should do it to not create issue for the FDA validation. Other volunteer are working on this side, not me. I am a simple biochemist, those things are two complicated for me.
- chaps 5y agoUnderstood -- keep doing what you do best :). Good luck to you and your cohorts, friend.
