HGSI is trading above the 11.50 level, up around 5.4%

bigcharts.marketwatch.com

It announced today that it will present at the 26th Annual JPMorgan Healthcare Conference on Wednesday, Jan 9 in Frisco.

HGSI had an "upgrade" this week & some favorable comments about its drug development programs for hepatitis C and lupus & its artherosclerosis drug candidate Darapladib, which have the potential to generate royalties.

Besides Darapladib, its diabetes drug candidate Syncria seems to be the next most promising product, with future royalties for sales estimated by some at 10% & with about $183M in milestone payments.

It is also expected that HGSI will announce its first sales of ABthrax. for treatment of anthrax in late 2008.

I will keep a modest "target" for HGSI around $15.<g>
