Hello everyone,
We have an update from the DSFL principal investigator about their latest round of research, which you can read here. Although it's not the news they were hoping for, every round of testing brings the research team closer to finding better treatments for leishmaniasis. Thanks to everyone who supported this project!

Shame they didn't find the breakthrough they were hoping for but knowledge was increased and that makes it worth it. I wish them the best in their ongoing/future research.

"The Drug Search for Leishmaniasis researchers recently conducted lab testing on 10 compounds. The testing showed that none of the compounds were good potential treatments, and the researchers will turn their attention to additional compounds."
----------------------------------------Any updates on subsequent work done on any other additional compounds?  - AMD Ryzen 5 1600AF 6C/12T 3.2 GHz - 85W - AMD Ryzen 5 2500U 4C/8T 2.0 GHz - 28W - AMD Ryzen 7 7730U 8C/16T 3.0 GHz |
