Well, good luck trying to sell their failed drug. Tesla open sources tech and algorithms (that are probably worth more than everything Frequency Therapeutics has combined) because they have confidence so they don't give a shit. Reminds me of the "ahh but people will steal my brilliant idea!"...

Why don't Frequency Therapeutics have the decency of at least open sourcing FX-322? That IP is worth shit. At least let other labs try it. I guess they also failed on the ethics trials.

Seems like this study has some really weird pseudo-science paragraphs though, not sure if it is trustworthy: Interesting, how do you know? I thought it was private info?

You do realize that Clonazepam (and other psychoactive drugs) would also greatly reduce the pain inflicted by a knife stuck in your arm, right? You can't just make the jump from "this psychoactive drug solved the issue" to "this is not a physical problem". Note that the cochlea has hair cells...

Are you aware of Nano MRI? If I'm not mistaken (and chances are I am), some labs are using targeted contrast (i.e., small molecules that target specific cells via viral vectors, for example), in conjunction with high resolution MRI, to image cellular scale structures in vivo. Can someone explain...

Quick disclaimer: I'm a software engineer, not a biologist, so, by all means, I'm a lawman, this post comes from an admittedly ignorant point of view, which I'm willing to change. Yet, regardless, I think I have the right to have concerns, and, as such, I'll do my best to write a high-quality...

I mean, if you are so certain it is scam, it might be. My point is that 4 failed treatments do not imply that the idea is necessarily bad. That's not how stats work. You seem to have a bunch of additional reasons to believe it is a scam after having visited the clinic, which, fine, I can't...

I mean, I do understand your frustration and don't think it is unjustified. But calling the clinic a scam is a strong accusation, that one shouldn't make without conclusive evidence. Moreover, the method itself could still have value even if it turns out the clinic is not legit. The things I...

Calling the clinic a scam is as extremist and unproductive as claiming it has a cure. No, we can not jump to conclusions because 5 members here didn't get any relief. Just statistically alone, it could be explained by bad luck. The chance is really small (about 0.003%), but it is still possible...

That's what I want most. We aren't curing shit if we can't see what is going on. This is especially important, because if there is no hair cell damage, then you know ear treatments won't work for you. And it will also help us better understand the problem and ultimately solve it. I wonder how...

Went higher, went lower... definitely sounds like it had no effect at all to me, sadly. Sighs. I wonder if we have any report from FX-322 on someone with tinnitus...

Didn't @undecided ultimately say it did nothing to his tinnitus and that it was a waste of money, and that he wouldn't do it again? I may be misremembering. This thread is huge and we can't download it...

See, that's the problem right there. There are observable changes in the brain from playing guitar every day. Or learning a new language. Or getting married. Anything significant changes our brain. That's how it works, neurons are very plastic, that's how we learn, remember and change. Of course...

Okay, at this point I don't think stem cells are worth it. I've browsed quite many pages of this thread and I still couldn't find these people that supposedly got better after stem cell treatment. I've found one person that claimed it did nothing to him, and another person, the thread creator...

Thanks for asking. I'm managing to sleep, which was my main worry, so, yes, things have improved. That said, the tinnitus is still the same. No idea what happened to me that day. Very scary and frustrating.
