Actor Michael J. Fox delivered the keynote address to the 2007 BIO International Convention, being held in Boston Monday through Wednesday. The convention drew 20000 scientists, industry leaders and government officials to see the latest products and discuss progress in efforts to: • find cures for major diseases, • find good substitutes for oil-based plastics and fuels, • and provide disease-resistant, genetically engineered crops and cloned animals to improve food supplies. Before Fox’s address, the Biotechnology Institute announced this year’s winners of the BioGENEius awards. The top prize went to Ted Paranjothy, Fort Richmond Collegiate, Winnipeg Manitoba. Second place went to Tracy Fuad of the Breck School, Golden Valley, Minnesota, followed by Tejal Naik of the Charter School, Wilmington, Delaware. Honorable mention went to Rachel Ginn of Hamilton High School, Chandler, Arizona.

      its so sad, that people like michael have to give up their whole career because of this disease. Their life is wrecked and it only gets worse. and yet people are more worried about finding a cheaper way to get false boobs and plastic surgery. Its even sader that people dont pay attention to these disease until it happens to them or a loved one.
