At the meeting I was at recently—and I apologize if I had the wrong information--they were talking about Alzheimer brain banks. Maybe that's the distinction. One of the comments I heard from a number of the researchers who were in the room—and these were all Alzheimer's researchers—was that some things are not worth building a huge infrastructure around when there are so many collaborations available around the world, particularly the number of brain banks across North America that Canadian scientists have been able to take advantage of. That was the conversation I heard. I'm not taking a position on this. I'm just saying that was a conversation I heard at a meeting of Canadian scientists just a few weeks ago.
