@dmaraganore What about companies? Won't they be less inclined to make investments in genetic diseases if they can't patent genes?

[PD Online Research @PDOnline]

MJFF is funding this: RT @PANtweets: New Clinical Trial Begins for Treatment of Parkinson's Disease http://dlvr.it/82Jsm

@dmaraganore Really? Nothing will change if the PTO stops allowing patents for genes?

[Team Fox @TEAMFOX]

YES YOU CAN!! RT @GreenLight_711: Headin out to pick up my bib @INGNYCMarathon ! #Running 4 @TeamFox Super pumped! Can I really run 26.2mi?!
