Interesting.
My nephew-in-law, who works in investments in the health-care industry, has told me about this technique. Because I'm a heart patient, he tells me what he ethically can about new developments he hears about via the grapevine.
I'll be seeing him in November. Will be pumping him for any updates I haven't heard about.
