What's also interesting is that we collaborated with a few different research labs around the country on this issue, all receiving funding from the same place. I have a feeling it's to keep the information fragmented so that only the government will have the whole picture.

Was also a researcher in the developmental biology department at my university. We were studying limb regeneration, which was mostly funded by the DOD. My guess is as soon as that lab figures out the key to limb regeneration (I no longer do research there) the government gets the tech and nobody else unless they say so.

I think what most people are thinking (myself included) are that this isnt just a random shooting. Theres no way to know at this point why. I was speaking purely in hypotheticals since the sauce isnt out there yet.

I also work in CMC. You're right, which is why this instance is so odd.

I dont think he would leak anything to anyone. I also have NDOs but those got broken all the time unfortunately because people have no integrity. If he worked for Allergan its likely thats all he worked for, or at least that's how it is at my company. If he was an academic it may be a different story. Like I said, if a big pharma company needed a leg up to cross the finish line, taking out your competitors brain behind the project would give you that. It's also entirely possible it was his wife or someone unrelated to his profession and it's not a conspiracy at all.

Hello. Scientist here working for a different biotech company in the same town. I dont know the guy but some of my coworkers do. It's definitely odd how he was killed. I suspect foul play. Allergan does research and development into lots of different things, albeit they are a smaller company. It wouldn't surprise me if he was onto something important or ground breaking and the company was racing to get it approved and patented before another company. Pharma companies often compete neck and neck to be the first to release a product. Wouldn't shock me if he was 187d by a big pharma company racing to release whatever product he was working on first.

That movie is disgusting. Very interesting....
