GTC Biotherapeutics (fka GTCB)

Rustyboy, good to hear from you after this hiatus. Thanks for the update. I have tried to follow Gates foundation funding for a clue for the past year and have found nothing other than what I think is a logical connection between a computer innovator with a love for the extraordinary and the potential for Gates recognition of GTCBs technology. I agree with you and JL that approval means a high likelihood of a new partnership and am betting on it. Re plasma-- screening for AIDS, hepatitis, malaria (!) Chagas disease and so on is required to provide for safety. If cost were not an issue I think transgenic Atryn would be safer. Other potential areas not addressed by Jesse is so called "pump brain" which still occurs with adequate heparinization and as far as I know is yet unanswered as to whether ATIII will be better.
