That's awesome 
Hopefully it will work in humans now

eh, yall could have done this in the big 12.
I'd have been equally excited.

I wonder how many people would be willing to have cancer just for their team to get that 1 football national title.

What kind of cancer are we talking about?

Way to go ... shout out at UGA as well
Hey we have the cure to AIDS
So by our powers combined we will try to save the world

While I'm excited to see how this progresses in future studies I don't believe the no side effects. The article states that the boron breaks into Li and He.
As most people know, lithium is used to treat bipolar by affecting brain chemistry. Furthermore, if y'all can remember freshman chemistry, alpha radiation is a helium nucleus (just the protons and neutrons). Usually alpha radiation isn't a problem because it can be stopped with only a sheet of paper. However, if an alpha emitter gets inside of your body it can majorly frick some shite up.
I assume these researchers were smart enough to figure this out first, but I'll keep my skepticism until the human clinical trials start.
Good first step though, and it makes for one hell of a press release

It certainly sounds better than chemo or radi, congrats.
Unfortunately we don't understand nearly enough about tumors/cancer to come up with a real cure, which I suspect will require genetic manipulation.

Roll Mizzou cancer research?

Please don't treat that head football coach from Bama

Mizzou is the home to radioactive pharmaceuticals. over 95% of the US production is done at Mizzou's nuclear reactor. Mizzou also invented the "magic bullet" where radioactive isotopes were attached to specific receptors in order to provide targeted radiation treatment at specific organs/tissues instead of submitting the whole body to the radiation.
Mizzou is well aware of what radiation does to humans.

Ole Miss cured AIDS.
Mizzou curing cancer too in the same year?
SEC speed, IMHO

Send some to Pat Dye's office. Maybe we can get rid of that cancer.

as a two-time cancer survivor, this is encouraging.....but,will BIG-PHARMA allow this to be successful?...lots of money involved with cancer treatment and drug companies do not make drugs to cure disease.....they make drugs to make money....never forget that
