Hi everyone,
It's been a year and a half since I put up the post informing people of Professor John Herman Taylor's research, which involved curing cattle of Crohn's Disease (called Johne's Disease in cattle) by means of an anti-MAP vaccine which he has spent many years developing.
The vaccine is ready and awaiting human trials, however, the diagnostic test which tests for MAP needs more funding to be finished. The vaccine cannot be tested without the diagnostic tool, that's just the way it is unfortunately.
So WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
£120,000 is required to finish the development of the diagnostic tool, and a further £300,000 is required for clinical studies of the diagnostic tool.
According to the justgiving page for Crohn's MAP Vaccine, as of todays date (26/04/2015) we have raised £101,449.44
HOW MUCH IS STILL TO BE RAISED - about £320,000.
