A rat was recently cured of alopecia?!

Since they located the gene my mom has been telling me how sure she was that it wouldn't be too long until a cure was found .. I was recently told that it was on the news that rats were recently cured of alopecia.. I've been trying to find an article on line but no luck yet.. Am I the only one that thinks that's huge?! :)

Fingers crossed it's enough of a 'discovery' that more money & time are pumped into it!
