Earlier this month, China scientist Tu Youyou was awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine for her work in discovering artesunate, the TCM-based drug that treats malaria. Now, researchers in Great Britain want to prove that artesunate can also be used to prevent the metastases associated with colorectal cancer. To help pay for a clinical trial, British researchers have started a crowdfunding campaign that has already raised 90% of its $77,000 fundraising goal.
