Are you trying to start a business or do scientific research? I think you’ll struggle to get investors interested in an idea that hasn’t been validated, and you’ll struggle to get academics interested in helping a money-making venture.

You might need to make a tough call to do one or the other.

I'm not sure I really understand.

The research is obviously the most important thing at this point. Without validation it's all just conjecture.

I know I'll need solid evidence to back up the idea, but I've reached the end of my ability to evaluate the concept. I can't find a fatal flaw, and that's why I keep trying.

I'm really looking for an answer either way. I need help to prove it will work, or to show it's a dead end.

While it's in limbo I can't, in good conscience, drop it.

Do you really think having a patent and an LLC to organize under are fatal flaws?
