TO ALL****** Had a VC present yesterday in a class of mine......Venture Capital is the class....Anyways, the guys name was Thomas Winter of Onset Ventures.....His fund initially funded INHL in the seed stage of the company....2 scientists with an idea as he put it....initially the two didn't get funding from him or 18 others.....However, he was interested in the technology and applications..... My father has diabetes (only has to pop a pill), whereas my grandmonther and uncle must take insulin shots..... Getting to the point, this sounds very intriguing.....The company currently is partnering with 11-12 companies to bring 13-14 drugs to the market..... He showed us absorption rates and the amounts that are absorbed during that time...The results were very comparable to the natural absorption of eating......Much different than using the typical injections that type A(correct?) diabetics use..... Anyways, I have a close friend with an M.S. in biochemistry.....His specialty is in drug delivery......He has analyzed tons of BIOTECH companies for investment companies and for his personal account....I have e-mailed him to look into the company and I am waiting for his response.....Just so everyone knows.......I'll get back to you with more as I learn..... From what little I know, HUGE potential here..... Dan Ross
