Anavex Life Sciences Corp (AVXL)

[ALP7]

Interesting takes have been expressed as to why Jin joined AVXL

I can think of both positive and negative ones. Here's a positive one:
AVXL: Dr Jin, please review our phase 2b/3 data and tell us if you think it is good enough to get FDA approval
JIN: Odds of approval are slim to none
AVXL: Would you consider joining us and accepting a position where you get to design, implement and completely manage (including budget) a new phase 3 trial.
JIN: (after thinking about it for 5 seconds) Yes, sounds like a great opportunity.

Even if the new phase 3 trial doesn't meet endpoints, then adding this experience to his FDA background will qualify Jin for a CEO role at a biotech company. Excellent career choice for him.
