I already have met with the executive director of JDRF, and we have many partnerships with them. In fact, as you may know, I think the world-famous Edmonton protocol that was developed by scientists in Edmonton was funded jointly by JDRF, among other players--JDRF, CIHR, Alberta Heritage--so it really is illustrative of partnership in funding really great science.
