I'm not sure there is money in it. Imagine if they figured out cancer, diabetes or asthma. Lots and lots of money to be made on various chemos, hacking out tumors, rerouting things around the pancreas. Asthma meds (the last I looked) are about 500 a pop. Not including emergency inhaler.

Oh I imagine it though.

That's part of the money issue. It's also that the process of figuring it out would not pay anywhere near as well as most of the standard procedure based medical specalties.
