Its great to see so many interested in the biological sciences .
The next step in testing is to look for the results of PED use at a cellular level rather than for the actual substance itself.
One approach is to measure activity of androgen receptors although so far its had mixed results.

This approach though, if it can be perfected would essentially mean doping would end as the only way to get around it would be to down-regulate the biomarkers being tested which would be counted-productive and reduce any advantage.
