Where should I go if I have an idea for treatment of a disease through regenerat!


Question: Where should I go if I have an idea for treatment of a disease through regenerative medicine?
I have an idea about treating people with Degenerative Disc Disease and herniated discs. My idea falls into the realm of regenerative medicine. I don’t know the first place to go to or who to talk to. I want someone to genuinely work with me and see if this is a viable option. It is possible my idea is not viable but I believe it to be. I would like to see what others that have knowledge in the area think. After searching the internet and searching through scientific paper after scientific paper, and website after website for answers to my disease throughout the years, it appears to me that what I am proposing is not currently being performed. Who/where do I go to present this idea and can help me figure out if this type of research/approach has recently or previously started (or abandoned) somewhere? If it is a viable option/approach that hasn’t been tried before, who can help me get this idea off the ground to benefit millions of suffering people with DDD and herniated discs such as myself? I am pretty close to being bed ridden because of this disease so I wouldn’t be able to travel. I have thought long and hard on this topic. It is of great importance to me. Yahoo answers may not be the best place to start but it is a start and everyone has to start somewhere.

You need to do searches on sites like pubmed or the cochrane review to see if this has already been attempted. It would be best to approach a teaching institute as they will have access to all the journals and should be able to give you access on line.
In the mean time look at scholar google. There are lots of papers on there including some you will struggle to find in other journals.
Approach a teaching institution and talk to them.
Does your idea involve any drugs?
If it does this is a hurdle as you will need to find someone to prescribe.
Does it involve equipment?
If so find an institution that has the equipment and then approach them with your idea.
To safe guard yourself from having your idea stolen document it and send it to yourself recorded delivery. When it arrives you must not open it but safe opening it for the legal teams when you present it as this will prove it has the date you sent it and hadn't been tampered with.

If you do have an idea you don't necessarily have to go through a medical school to develop it as a large number of practitioners from varying allied and non allied fields will also treat this condition.

There are other institutions such as Osteopathic colleges, Chiropractic, acupunture etc which will regularly treat people who suffer from this condition and practice using techniques and protocols they have developed.

What I would advise is you approach a teaching institution of a regulated profession.

You may also want to talk the the Barral Institute.
http://www.barralinstitute.com/

Dr. Jean Pierre Barral has developed a range of techniques to treat musculo-skeletal pain by affecting internal organs which he now teaches to Osteopaths, Chiropractors, Doctors and a whole host of other people worldwide. He may not be interested in your idea but could give you guidance on where to go.

the patent office. You will get 25 years protection for your treatment. Be prepared to submit blinded trials to your regulatory body in order to be able to peddle this treatment.
