Funny this should come up. My mom worked in the lab they discovered it (she wasn't part of the team who discovered it though), and its is a very interesting. From what I heard (and this was a w ago, probably getting all sorts of details wrong) it is a very interesting product. I heard of how they could inject mice with the virus and it would then "hunt down" the cancer cells as they had a specific path that was activated when the cancer was present.
