Regarding "I can honestly say that the Krill People, ACST, are liars and their lying goes back many years..."

FWIW....I did a little DD into the people behind the early research work done at Acasti/Neptune. It looks like JSS Medical Research Inc (which is listed on clinicaltrials.org as sponsor of the company’s 2 phase II trials) is a CRO that was founded by Dr. John S. Sampalis, a Professor of Surgery and Epidemiology & Biostatistics in the Faculty of Medicine of McGill University and the University of Montreal. He is the brother of Acasti/Neptune’s Dr. Tina Sampalis, (she received an MD in Oncology in Greece and then a PhD in Epidemiology and Experimental Surgery at McGill) who holds the key patents in her name, and in turn was a lead researcher (with Ruxandra Bunea as PI on one of the studies) on Acasti/Neptune’s 2003/2004 publications. Ruxandra Bunea was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Internal Medicine at McGill University at the time.

Of these three, John Sampalis has a current regular established research publication record (PubMed shows 114 citations but topically they are all over the place which suggests his coauthorship on these papers is related to his biostatistics expertise). Tina Sampalis (=Fotini Sampalis) has 14 citations involving mostly breast cancer research but nothing is cited after 2008. Ruxandra Bunea herself has only the two early Neptune Krill Oil publications for which I provide the links below.
