Maybe we could spend more time figuring out what actually causes painful bladder syndrome and fix that instead of taking our cues for shiny new (headline grabbing) tech from science fiction as a higher priority than actual health.

- internetter 3y ago> Maybe we could spend more time figuring out what actually causes painful bladder syndrome Yeah, I guess we could also do that for cancer! Then we wouldn't need to invest so much resources making treatments for it.... Jokes aside, I don't know anything about painful bladder syndrome, but much like other illnesses, a cure is often much harder to develop. In the meantime, what we can do is develop treatments. Plus, as the article hints at, there are so many other applications for it. When I read it, I read the current tests as a proof of concept. The sky is the limit with simple treatments that currently require surgeries or other invasive procedures that could be addressed here. An optimistic moonshot is teaching them to attack tumors. All and all, if you couldn't tell, I'm really bullish on this tech.
