Anavex Life Sciences Corp (AVXL)

Yes, if you were a scientific researcher that recommended to a large pharmaceutical company that the focus should be on removing amyloid plaque and that company spent billions of dollars pursuing clinical trials to develop drugs to remove amyloid plaque, wouldn't it be a little difficult to admit that you may have been wrong?

Could you get fired? Should you be fired? No, because the world is flat and amyloid plaque is the sole cause of Alzheimer's, and silly little Anavex could not possibly have a drug that is in any way effective to treat Alzheimer's. What's more, Anavex has no funds to speak of -- only a few million dollars. Impossible! It takes many billions of dollars to do these trials correctly. Please send more money. We need just a few more billion, and we will get a new block buster Alzheimer's drug on the market.
