Pharma companies have spent literally billions of dollars chasing a theory that has proven to be wrong ("amyloid causes Alzheimer's"). And Dr. Alkon has explained in scientific detail why Amyloid plaques are only one part of the problem. Further he has explained how PKC Epsilon (Bryostatin) plays a role in many aspects of a healthy memory--PKC Epsilon is multi-modal.

His analysis is backed up with years of research, meticulously analyzing healthy and diseased cadaver brains, performing myriad animal tests with Bryostatin, and culminating in what we know today: Bryostatin was administered to severe Alzheimer's compassionate-use patients that were remarkably improved by Bryostatin.

No other trial drug has ever had a comparable remarkable effect on severe AD patients.

While Bryostatin may not be the ultimate solution, there's a lot of evidence that suggests it has a decent shot at working, on its own merits without any other drugs. There is risk, of course, but everyone has to asses their own personal situations as to whether the risk here is worth taking.

I assume the PPS of NTRP will escalate the closer we get to end of April when they present their Ph 2b results. When results are presented, assuming they are decent to good, do you anticipate the stock will tank, as per AVXL Nov of 2015 and July of 2016 on news, or do you think NTRP will go up? Retail holds little of NTRP. Only 450+ investors and the float is only 1.6 million shares. So, would those factors make it more or less susceptible to a massive sell off and shorting attack on the news?
