I would have to say your view as an investor and my view as a sepsis researcher are widely disparate.

Apollo:

Thank you for adding an expert opinion to this subject. It is interesting that as an "insider" in this field, that you do not find any compelling investments. I propose this phenomenon is not limited to biotech. I would venture to guess that, although the risks in biotech are higher, it is for the similar reasons that upper level management in technology companies are not making purchases at market prices in their fields. While the generous availability of cheap stock options for upper managment has a lot to do with this, perhaps these managers privately held outlook regarding risk/reward profile for investment in these companies at current market prices is much less favorable than that held by many of us wide-eyed, optimistic, technology investors.

Best, Huey

I guess my point is there are now ways to knock out a drug candidate earlier in the process before millions/billions have been spent. I don't know what sepsis is but I know what $50 million is.
