Scott Antonia : Peregrine Pharmaceuticals KOL

This gets a bit puzzling....but I'd argue it is related to Peregrine and the purchase by CBMG (where Scott Antonia sits as scientific advisor) of his patents just does not sit right, especially when I see Seeking Alpha writing a negative article just a few weeks earlier before Dr. Antonia placed onto CBMG scientific advisory board..... still more puzzle pieces to sift through but adding some below...

==========================================================

1) Dr. Antonia is Peregrines Pharmaceuticals KOL

2) He is listed, along with James J. Mule on a couple patents

H. LEE MOFFITT CANCER CENTER AND RESEARCH INSTITUTUTE, INC, UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA
Scott Joseph Antonia, James J. Mule

3) SA writes negative article (author was "short") about CBMG

April 7, 2015

http://seekingalpha.com/article/3054796-cellular-biomedicine-strong-sell-on-car-t-failure-dishonesty-allegations-and-stock-promotion-minus-94_6-percent-downside

4) Then Scott Antonia gets placed on CBMG scientific advisory board (which must have been known by SA when they wrote that negative article...)

April 30, 2015
..today announced the appointment of Scott J. Antonia, M.D, Ph.D. and Guoping Fan, Ph.D., as members of the newly established Scientific Advisory Board. Dr. Antonia will advise the company on immuno-oncology and Dr. Fan will advise the company on stem cell technology and its applications.

5) All of a sudden CBMG buys out some patents, which are Scott Antonias...

6) Then today CBMG had class action filed against them

7) Who the hell is Blackbird Biofinance... not much info given on these guys

8) ... maybe these paths lead no where but anyone associated with Peregrine, especially a KOL in the spotlight is worth checking and maybe its a good idea for no collaborators to surface that Peregrine is working with because I think some would go out of their way to slow Peregrine down again...


... not sure if related but co-patent assignee with Scott Antonia = James Mule, whom was placed as SA on Jan 15, 2015 @ OXIS biotech but much of OXIS website not updated-including BOD
