Can't come at a better time with Ty increasing sales provides a floor for the company. Not much people on the Wall Street knows that Elan has an option for Lily's program. (at no cost) If you want to invest in AD, Elan is it!

Here is something to get excited about... may be an oppps moment for UCLA staff for telling a bit too much:

From the article:

"Recent announced results from the Phase II study showed that bapineuzumab resulted in improvements on memory tests in patients who received the therapy, compared to those who received a placebo, and also helped reduce brain shrinkage (compared to those receiving placebo), a common symptom of the disease."

Now we know how well AAB-001 works!
