PI’s getting frustrated with AS and his promises of SP inflection points that never materialise.
Could Avacta’s II’s also start to want some SP growth after 3 years with large sums invested.
Is it time for AS to step aside ?
Who could replace him on the Avacta board or do they bring in fresh blood.
Shaun Chilton could do a very good job or after today’s performance Dr. Coughlin ?
She has the experience and with the trial continuing in the USA a perfect executive to deal with the FDA.
