...transplant procedure was not without precedent. Beginning five years ago, doctors in Sweden tried similar surgery on four Parkinson's victims. They achieved only slight improvements that soon faded. Madrazo credits his team's success to modifications in surgical technique.

At the moment, McDonald's is test-marketing a more unexpected offering: McPizza...

Also, no money will be awarded...
