CytoSorbents Corporation (CTSO)

The doctors in Germany have cardiac surgery studies going on or planned including a 300-patient one with the University Hospital of Cologne that is currently enrolling patients. France is another market to develop to gain KOL support. The PR brings up that Cytosorb can be put into a heart-lung machine. The Sorin Group has the world's best selling heart-lung machine. It's a great partnership especially if the partnership can get CytoSorb used as a standard in cardiac surgery. I hope it is Sorin Group when the official PR confirming the partner' name comes out.
