The "bionic pancreas" wouldn't help with pancreatic cancer right? The problem is that nobody notices pancreatic cancer until the death warrant is signed (to use your metaphor). Using a bionic pancreas would be like putting out the fire in the kitchen only when the rest of the house is also in flames.

I commented on the bionic pancreas article as I know it's not a solution to pancreatic cancer, but I'm hoping that continued research in this direction evolves into better diagnosis and cures.
