"funding is now in place for animal testing " does not = news.

"News" would be that the animal testing worked.

"NEWS!!!" would be that it worked well, and without side effects, and that human trials were approved.

JMO, I know you asked Gary but in a medical stock there is no advantage until the animal model works and human testing is complete. Next, there is FDA approval. That one piqued my interest because Japanese investigators have been working on blood substitutes for years.

Unquestionably, if a blood substitute (won't abbreviate as"BS", though) that works comes to pass, it will be h$u$g$e. Technically they are substitutes for red cell transfusions given only for low hemoglobin, not for the many other things (clotting, infection-fighting, etc.) blood does.
