Re-educating the immune system - research in diabetes

Hi!

Has anyone looked into the research by Dr. Denise Faustman and her colleagues at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) regarding their new approach to diabetes?

I first found out about it here: http://www.joinleenow.com/html/trials.php

In short they are examining a method of re-training an immune system to stop attacking it's own cells.

Apparently, if proven correct, their findings may have huge implications for other autoimmune diseases such as MS. The research looks promising.

Kind regards.
