They are not related to Benitec, but I see great future potential with their technology. As it stands, diabetics really have only the option of oral meds, insulin, and maybe exercise if it's type II diabetes and not too out of hand. This tech offers the possibility of reducing or eliminating the need for insulin or meds. This tech would mostly apply to type I diabetics the most since type I is where you don't produce insulin, but type II is typically that you produce it, but your body is resistant to it...usually through obesity...as fat cells produce cytokines that increase insulin resistance.

This tech has the possibility of providing endogenous (from within your own body) insulin, while reducing or eliminating the need for anti-rejection drugs (since is tissue from an animal going into your body). This would be a breakthrough treatment. Not sure about orphan status, but that would be cool if that happened too. Nat twenty five cents a share, I through about 400 dollars it's way. This one will be fun to watch over the next two to three years.
