Re: DNDN

>Did you listen to [Dr. Sternberg’s] two other presentations on Provenge?<

The ECCO website lists only one presentation by Dr. Sternberg—the one that I posted. Where can one find these other presentations?

>Her commentary was SLOPPY work and she apologized to Tia [Dr. Higano] afterwards about the mistakes.<

Does anyone have a link for this alleged apology?
