We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
I’m sure the momentum will pick up next week when many investors will be opening a new ISA for the year. Still well underwater here but confident all will come good when contracts and sales are announced , particularly when the funding issues are known. Add the stroke marker test to the equation and I think we will all be amazed the heights this will go to
Perhaps Budd is going to make a big announcement on his birthday tomorrow, although I doubt it. I don’t think he will be getting any birthday cards from investors but will be getting himself a very nice gift courtesy of our support for him. Oh well - perhaps I’ll be able to get a nice gift on my birthday next year when this all comes good
Here’s hoping
I think this is to test babies that are born deaf. Not those whose deafness is likely to be caused by the use of gentamicin. Different test altogether

If you want to see what the whole process involves here it is

This probably shows a more accurate timeline but I’m sure much of it can be fast tracked

See attached document. Page 49 shows a timeline for the process although there is a fast track process which I hope Budd has applied for!

A new report from the Royal College of Physicians and British Pharmacological Society joint working party considers the opportunities provided by increasing pharmacogenomic testing.

This is an interesting report but if you don’t want to wade all the way through it there is mention of our test on page 33.
What is interesting is that an example outside of the neo natal setting is given. Imagine if GDR could ever expand their test for such cases. In the USA alone 4 million people a year are given 3 different types of Aminoglycosides antibiotics, including gentamicin which results in 40,000-200,000 people suffering hearing loss. Imagine saving the hearing of that many people on a world scale let alone the 114,000 babies around the world per year that could be saved from permanent hearing loss with the GDR test already being used, according to the Royal College of Physicians
Then there is the new product development programme which has been initiated for use of Genedrive® Point of Care device for stroke management in emergency care as mentioned in the interim report.
As an LTH I’m still well under water here but confident of exciting times ahead when the AIHL sales commence and further product development continues.

I’m not so sure the AIHL test will be the saviour of this company. My biggest concern about the length of time it is taking to bring it to market is that gentamicin will be modified to lessen the risk of causing deafness or an alternative anti-biotic will be found. Great to prevent babies from going deaf but rubbish for the sp of GDR. It looks like my concerns may be realised!

I’ve been here since April 2020 and now sit well under water with an average of 80p. Thanks Budd for nothing!
I thought WHO had stopped looking at Covid diagnostic tests as there has been no change for months. Looks like our test is still being assessed though with a slight change yesterday with GDR being asked for further information.

I too am fed up with this cesspit. Can we just get back to informative and constructive research to help each other out.
Why are we not selling into these countries for which we have approval?

Let's hope DB has gone on here today banging the drum and saying where is my approval!
