To All,

Bob Rieder, CEO of Nortran, states in his shareholder's letter dated Oct. 20/98:
"We are delighted to welcome Mr. Joseph Rus aboard, as our new Senior Director of Business Development. Mr. Rus, who most recently worked with F. Hoffman-LaRoche, brings over 25 years of international pharmaceutical industry experience to Nortran Pharmaceuticals, and will be responsible for all partnering and in-licensing activities".

This is great news for Nortran.

One has to ask, why would Mr. Rus quit (I presume) a comfortable job at Hoffman-LaRoche to join Nortran.
Does he know something that we don't??

NRT is moving simply because biotech stocks are smoking hot in N. America at the moment. The percentage move in NRT is very small compared to most others. Most biotech stocks on the TSE are near doubles from their lows in early October.
The only piece of news that would really effect NRT would be another deal with a Euro major. The team had been in Europe for a while so something may be in the works here?
