Post Interesting article on IBD breakthrough

Hey guys! I was on the yahoo front page and on the side I saw an article about IBD, strange considering I haven't seen anything like it on the yahoo website.

We might be seeing IBD breakthroughs soon though!! How exciting.

Here's the link:

Wow, what a great read. I hope they can sort it out. Viruses are not "curable" but more information regarding these sinister bugs would help the community out greatly.

Re: Interesting article on IBD breakthrough

I think the mapping of the boa constrictor genome is maybe even more interesting. Can maybe finally put all the subspecies questions to rest.

Re: Interesting article on IBD breakthrough

I found it interesting that scientists just now jumped on this pathogen that has been known in the snake community for decades. Apparently, I'm not the only one.
