Michael Murphy (CTSL) confirms TRGA will host analyst meeting this week the day before presenting at Cal Bio conference. He makes TRGA his #2 biotech pick this week on hotline (FWIW).

here also is quote from PR announcing the conf. and featured address by TRGA CEO.
Company executives will present leading technological aspects with the "New Discovery Tool Box"
segment. Presentations include "High-Throughput Screening" by Gordon Foulkes, of Aurora
Biosciences; "Target Identification" by Kevin Kinsella, chief executive officer of Sequana Therapeutics ;
and "Combinatorial Chemistry" by Robert Whitehead, chairman of CalBioSummit '97 and CEO of
Trega Biosciences.

"Today it takes about $200 million to $300 million and seven years to get a new drug to the market"
said Whitehead. "Approximately 45-50 percent of this money and 40 percent of the time are consumed
identifying appropriate new drug candidates. Typically, 10,000 potential drug candidates need to be
screened to identify a single compound that can be advanced to pre-clinical testing."
