Now for an on topic post...

I must apologize to readers of this board for my lack of posting on the news/conjecture/gossip/data evaluation/future potential of bluebird bio the company or BLUE the stock. I kinda lost interest in BLUE when the stock hit the nosebleed levels of $150 to just under $200, but I continue to be interested in the company and its breakthrough gene therapy studies. Just too many other things going on these days to spend time posting, all in a good way.

As to the recent NORTHSTAR study results, my view is the results are good but not stellar, and any time there is a vector change due to apparent loss of expression the timeline gets way extended. Instead of rehashing the results here, I provide a link to Dew's board that has much discussion (go fore and aft in this link to catch up if interested):

And here is Max Nisen's discussion of the results and the associated carnage (as linked to by DD):

Jim Birchenough at Wells Fargo puts the SCD news this way (lol):

And here is the roller coaster ride from an 18 month perspective:
