Hey
That’s tomorrow!!
As they say, keep the faith!
Last chance for Dr Koos to “pull the rabbit out of the hat!”
Silence is golden. But not this much
No word on what happened to the ONPH deal whereby ‘exclusivity’ was lost early January. Does the deal carry on? Why nothing disclosed?
And next up
The Canary deal.
Is it on? Did the $50 million get committed? What’s the delivery date? Must be coming up shortly.
How does he explain what the plan is to create value for shareholders and over what timeline?
And while time may be on his side, impatient investor frustration is building.
Hold on ….. just a little longer.
And listen to Paradise by The Dashboard Lights to fulfill your time. By MeatLoaf
Remember those wonderful days in the 70’s.
Only 50 years ago…. If you are old enough!
This morning is the shock?
The AWE come on 2-22-22?
So what’s the prognosis for this coming week?
Thoughts….?
What will tomorrow bring?
Does this mean ONPH Agreement is dead completely or just that ONPH lost exclusivity?
I have not seen any posting suggesting the agreement has been extended.
Has anyone?
Anyone know when the exclusive period with ONPH expires or has it already?
Any extension news?
Any updates from Dr Koos that I missed?
An anyone help ?
Is ihub rgbp board down?
No postings since 4:19 pm
Which one?
Training Beer?!!
Good show!
You are only as old as You feel!
And that bothers me often!!
Gosh
Are you that old Moon?
The Law looks much younger!
Skiluc
Nice to see you back!
Where you been?
Still positive?
Guess we need market to react then!
Take off market!!
Soon!
I just copied this statement off CNN news posting.
Although time to market is a challenge, perhaps 88 Energy can backfill the hole left after current demand of 99.5 million barrels is consumed.
From CNN
“But here's a reality check: The world could consume more oil in 2022 than ever before.
Global energy demand rebounded strongly this year as pandemic restrictions eased, and it's expected to rise further in 2022.
The International Energy Agency predicts that global oil demand will increase by 3.3 million barrels per day next year to 99.5 million barrels per day.”
Anyone ever think that one of the big pharma has their hand out for part of that new bill being approved, and that will be the source of the 50 mil, as it addresses cancer treatments?
Maybe she has seen futility of investing in da Pennies.
Or she is back as 29yearinvestor who may create his own buy orders, posts them but never admits to more than 45 million shares. Pumper and dumper…… maybe?
And where is Skiluc…. Worn out from his pumping? No more truths to share
Maybe he found out what he owned? Really. Hope not! Do your own DD.
You think?
And the beat goes on!
How is that pool Reno coming along?
Still swimming daily?
Morning
Did this site get poisoned or Covid affect all posters. No action for almost 3 months.
This is a serious, comical site.
Truth serum needed to post here. Maybe we are out of truths
Or maybe you all got on that rocket “to da moon”!! As posted so often!
What you think?
Bridget
I keep asking thru postings if anyone knows whether the remaining 36,000 shares of ONPH were sold by Koos when the price was above $30.00. Or at any price above current levels. No one replies.
If not sold, why not?
Clean disclosure? I cannot find any suggestion there was a hold period on the stock or an agreement not to sell the holding. Not in the 8K.
Now worth 10% of what we may have earned by immediate sale.
Wouldn’t that million $$$$$ be very valuable to RGBP now?
Thoughts ….?
Mr Gainskeeper
If that’s the case …..
Please sell immediately
Counting on you… for certain.
And think about that braggart ….. 29 investor!
How happy he will be
Ha. Ha
Hey
What’s the deal with the balance of the ONPH shares… the 36,000 odd shares RGBP had left?
Did Dr Koos sell them in the $30 range or do we still hold them at less than 6 bucks?
Anyone know? Anything been said about this matter?
Just wonderin’
A new update report is out.
Nothing new as far as I can see.
But not clear how many drilling sites they are attacking this winter.
Does anyone know when just one of these deals, as announced, will close?
With all the BS hype, have they ever published number of units sold by a partner company?
What’s the success rate on kiosks? Are they effective? Why only grocery stores, not malls, factories, anywhere people have leisure time to kill?
Or does INND need a new marketing approach that generates unit sales? Go where the need really is.
Just a thought ……
And in those 36 years, maybe you pushed close a few times, like we all have, looking back.
Somehow we scraped thru, to live another day.
As you get older you appreciate all the scrapes, you made it through!
Live on!!
No Max
Just priming/pumping this board, looking for logical suggestions on ways/introductions to get RGBP technology in front of Dr Langer, get his interest, whet his appetite, have him support our goal, bring resources, more scientists, money, commitment …… trying to make a ‘silk purse out of the sows ear’ we all have blind confidence in. Show that there is value! Capture and prove the value by releasing new life saving products.
What’s your suggestion, Max? Any ideas?
One other than hope, or to the moon?!
I wonder what it would take to get Dr. Langer interested in and involved with RGBP.
Would think it would validate the true worth of our patents and future path, very quickly.

The Modest Moderna Cofounder And Multibillionaire Robert Langer Shares His Secrets To Success
Jack Kelly
They say, “Never meet your heroes.” This adage may be due to the disappointment found when someone you idolize doesn’t match up to your expectations. There should be a corollary to this axiom: “Sometimes, you’ll be surprised and delighted to learn that a high-profile person is amazing.”
In an interview on the new Happy at Work podcast, I had the pleasure—along with my co-hosts, Harvard professors Michael McCarthy and Dr. Tessa Misiazek—to interview Dr. Robert Langer, the multibillionaire cofounder of Moderna, the biotech startup that helped save the world from the Covid-19 pandemic.
As an executive recruiter, I’ve interviewed thousands of high-powered professionals over the last two decades. It's rare to find uber successful people who still possess humility and gratitude.
PROMOTED
Langer, in addition to being a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is a chemical engineer, scientist, inventor and entrepreneur. He famously cofounded Cambridge, Massachusetts-based biotech firm Moderna, and owns a roughly 3% stake, worth about $2.6 billion.
The MIT professor, who still regularly goes into the lab, has also founded more than 40 other companies. He holds around 1,400 patents and is one of the most published and cited scholars of all time.

Langer’s patents have been licensed or sublicensed to over 400 pharmaceutical, chemical, biotechnology and medical device companies. His breakthrough research and business acumen advanced the delivery of life-saving medical treatments, including mRNA vaccines, insulin, anti-cancer drugs and more. His patents helped launch over 350 pharmaceutical, chemical, biotech and medical device companies.
Langer worked with the esteemed Judah Folkman, his mentor, at Boston Children's Hospital to isolate the first angiogenesis inhibitor, a macromolecule to block the spread of blood vessels in tumors. He’s seen as the founder of tissue engineering in regenerative medicine, and a pioneer of new technologies, such as controlled release systems and transdermal delivery systems, which allow the administration of drugs through the skin without needles or invasive methods.

With this exalted background, it would be reasonable to anticipate a hard-to-understand lecture from a genius operating on a higher plane. To my surprise, Langer was one of the sweetest, nicest, most approachable and genuine rock stars I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. Despite his massive successes, he comes across as a mild-mannered empathetic dad, husband, scientist and businessperson.
He graciously offered work and life advice garnered from his decades of experience. Early in his career, Langer struggled to find a post-doctoral fellowship and the right engineering jobs before landing in MIT’s Department of Nutrition and Food Science. His first nine research grant applications were turned down. “I got a few offers to run chemical plants, which is what many of my classmates were doing. I was not very excited about that. So, I applied to graduate school to learn things that might be more exciting.” A professor, who sat smoking a cigar and blew smoke in his face, told him that he ought to start looking for another job.
Instead of letting it get to him, Langer used it to motivate himself. He noticed that the people who are most successful, whether it's scientific research or in business, need to learn how to be resilient and effectively deal with failure.
Despite what frustrations and failures might be encountered, Langer said that he believes in positive reinforcement to encourage people and make them feel that anything is possible. He learned this from his mentor that employees and students will confront obstacles and setbacks. As a leader, you need to have faith in them and show appreciation for their efforts. If you believe in a person, they will internalize it and feel empowered.
When asked about how he, along with Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel and president Stephen Hoge, motivated his team of scientists and staff and kept them sane while international media and critics scrutinized the biotech company, Langer said that everyone possessed a passion for their work and the cause. They believed in what they were working on. This gave them the internal fortitude to fight off stress, long hours and high expectations.
He added, “On Moderna, I can only speak as an observer—being on the board of directors and scientific advisory board. But I was incredibly impressed with the remarkable dedication and hard work that the Moderna employees showed. They felt they could change the world, and they did. I think that motivation stayed with them day and night. The CEO to the management team did an amazing job in every way. It was and is an honor to be associated with them.”
When asked about how the company deals with employee burnout and retaining workers during difficult times, he said, “I don’t think there is a universal answer. I think you have to ask people what’s best for them, what they want and you need good, honest communication. I think you also want people to feel valued and to have get-togethers where they get to know each other and collaborate if they so desire.”
Langer is a believer in encouraging people to ask “good questions,” think big and not be afraid of taking outsized risks, in the pursuit of building something that can help improve the world. Dream big dreams—dreams that can change the world. Many times, you’re going to run into obstacles. If you do, don’t ever give up and just keep trying. To succeed, Langer said you should work hard, understand that high risks will result in high rewards and be a good, nice human being.
When asked about the unique things he did to become successful, Langer replied, “Not sure how successful I’ve been. But if I were to mention some things I did, I’d say I worked very hard. I traded job security and high pay for doing things I was passionate about. Out of over 20 job offers I received upon graduation from college, I chose the lowest paying one by far because I thought by doing so, I could potentially improve the health of patients. I dreamed about doing things that I thought would make the world a better place. I tried to treat everyone I worked with as nicely as possible, and if I was pursuing something, I would never give up.”
Although he’s in his 70s, Langer leads by example, putting in long hours and maintains a rigorous schedule. Even with the heavy workload, the scientist-billionaire is a family man. His wife, Dr. Laura Langer, an MIT graduate, understood that his jobs and passions required long days. She made him promise to get home by 7 p.m. every night to ensure that he fulfilled his role as a father and husband.
Throughout his career, he made a habit of taking each of his three children on business trips with him, one at a time. This offered the opportunity for him to bond and interact with each child, giving them undivided attention. This ritual continues, as his kids are now adults.
Langer also makes it a point to exercise and stay in shape. A lover of food, he runs daily and lifts weights. He confides that part of this is because his dad passed away relatively young from a heart attack and wants to avoid that unfortunate fate, as he has new goals to pursue.
Langer said about “dreaming big” and world-changing innovations, “In our MIT lab we are working on creating new tissues and organs to help people with diabetes, damaged bone and cartilage, suffering from hearing loss or spinal cord damage , and many other diseases. We are also trying to create new tissues and organs on a chip, which could possibly reduce animal or human testing. And we are working on developing new vaccines, better drugs and drug delivery systems, and better nutrition to the developing world.”
Thanks Bridget
My question was trying to identify and validate the source of the article. Where it was originally published. As 97429 just posts an article that was copied from somewhere else. Where else? DD Like Scientific America? Is the article true, or a hoax? Do you know? I went to the authors site but could not locate it as a posting.
Seems this discovery may lift the hearts and expectations of many sufferers, so just wished to validate the source.
Thanks
Hey Poutine Lady
Where was this article published. How can one follow more about progress ?
Several young women, friends of the family are in various stages of cancer treatments. Would love to help them.
Many thanks

Shares issued for convertible debt
When shares are issued for convertible debt, is there any legal requirement by SEC rules that the new shares must be held for a period of time before they are tradeable ? Maybe 4 months?
If no requirement, latest activity from selling could be explained by old note holders selling their newly acquired shares. The lucky ones held on and may have shares twice the value of those who sold immediately.
Any requirement to hold?
Me too
Have had for 40 years
A lifetime of deafness!
Just ask my wife!!
Did you hear the news?
If not, get a hearing aid!
You gotta be old to understand BP!
Right Bridget??
Are you not resident in PQ?
Always thought so with your French accent!
And Poutine!
Feels like it is cold enough in Barrie, On!
But you in the Belle Province likely will get it first!
Treat yourself with RGBP profits! To new winter outfits!
Hey Bridget
You got snow yet?
Yes I would.
RGBP is in business to further their business model. Not to be an investor.
Sell the stock and get out.
Then use the cash to grow your business.
Great partnership
Feel good partner
When the shares fall over 75%
Even a business should be looking to protect their shareholders.
And nothing from ONPH to reverse the tumble. Do we really know ALL the terms of the 50,000 share issue?
Would have been better for RGBP to sell the ONPH shares then reinvest the proceeds back into trials.
Not sure we have been told all conditions of the initial transaction.
Yes.
That $1,250,000 value is now $268,000
Unless they were sold but no 8K issued. That would have funded the 800k buy out with Chemdiv or been a downpayment on trials.
Shame!
Look forward to how this is explained when the next 10Q is issued.
Why?? Miss this opportunity?
As part of the ONPH deal, Regen got 50,000 shares of ONPH. At the time, the stock was trading <$30.00. Then he sold two blocks leaving 36,300 shares that climbed in value to > $35.00 per share.
The stock closed last Friday at $7.40 per share Devalue of about $1,000,000.00.
Yes we still have the shares but had the 36,300 shares been sold, we would have had the $1,250,000 in cash , to deal with.
Shame!
But I guess we all have held onto shares too long, On at least one occasion. Learned a lesson, I hope
As I thought!
