    Frances Oldham Kelsey, who blocked the sale of Thalidomide in the US while working for the FDA, passed away this week at the age of 101.

    I don't know what to say...had it not been for Frances, who knows how much thalidomide I would have in my system.

    RIP Frances.

    Q would have analyzed the chemical compound and detected it as a teratogen. She would have rearranged its quaternary structure, transforming it into Pink Bismuth.

    One of those times to thank God for strict government approval (or in this case disapproval) of medications, which is why U.S. children didn't suffer like European ones did. As an interesting side note, Thalidomide is still being used for some things such as melanoma today... but not in pregnant women.
