This sector may get whacked as short interest rises

Posted: Published on March 28th, 2015

Overall, a screen of about 1,650 mid-cap U.S. companies shows biotech stocks, on average, have a short interest ratio of about 11.6 percent, compared with the average mid-cap name's 6.4 percent in short interest, according to Starmine, a Thomson Reuters company. This suggests a greater number of bets on these stocks falling than the rest of the market.

Fund managers now have an average of 4.1 percent of their portfolios in biotechnology companies, nearly double the level of three years ago, according to Lipper data. We think that investor sentiment is a bit overdone, said John Fraunces, a co-portfolio manager of the Turner Medical Sciences Long/Short fund, whose fund is in the top 1 percent among long-short funds tracked by Morningstar over the last three years.

New bioengineering lab benefits UMass Dartmouth students

Posted: Published on March 28th, 2015

DARTMOUTH, Mass. (AP) - The future is now at UMass Dartmouths bioengineering lab, where students and staff are working on things that were once the stuff of science fiction. And theyre doing it in a lab that allows them the space and equipment to do cutting-edge research in a field thats the fastest-growing major at UMass Dartmouth. I think its changed dramatically, said Nick Macedo, 21, a senior working on cell cultures in the lab that was inaugurated last September on the second floor of the former textile building. Previously, a group of bioengineering students would huddle around a teacher in a small space. Now they have individualized teaching because everyone gets their own spot and instruments, Macedo said. Its the only place on campus where Macedo said he can work on cell and tissue cultures, a major skill in todays world that will make him more attractive in the job market or when he applies for graduate school. The old lab was shared with other majors and did not have the space and equipment the new one has, said Ph.D. scholar Abdulrahman Kehail, 27, whose research is focused on producing bioplastics from bacteria. It has a lot of windows … Continue reading

Sungduan: Growth factors

Posted: Published on March 27th, 2015

EVEN without surgery, one can now experience a dramatic improvement and even cure on health concerns such as diabetes, cancer, HIV, and cardiovascular diseases. This is through the stem cell technology and telomere science. Dr. Marc Lavaro Jr., an expert on general & ocular oncology, general & ocular pharmacology, pediatric ophthalmic medicine, and Science of Epigenetics said these new technology are considered as breakthrough which repairs and rejuvenates the cells. Lavaro, head of a molecular biology research in Gifu Prefecture, Japan and Osato Research Institute, Tokyo Japan stressed that stem cell is a kind of cell that can duplicate all kinds of cell which is why it can repair a damaged heart for instance. In his book entitled 278+ Growth Factors which he is set to publish, he also mentioned that there are also certain organs which do not regenerate like the heart and brain but through stem cells it can revitalize. Growth factors are stem cell stimulators that address medical conditions including diseases. Each growth factor is equivalent to 1 disease. For example, in a tumor kidney problem, stem cells produce growth factors to combat it. Another technology is the telomere science under science of Epigenetics. Telomere is part … Continue reading

Approximately 30 million people, mostly children, in the United States suffer from the condition. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that causes raised, red, scaly patches to appear on the skin, per the National Psoriasis Foundation. The disease often develops between the ages of 15 and 35. Eczema and psoriasis can be unbearable for people affected with the condition, but my office has been dedicated to easing the pain, physically and emotionally for our patients, continued Dr. Forman.

Locals in Springfield to Prevent Epilepsy Cuts

Posted: Published on March 27th, 2015

SPRINGFIELD (WIFR) -- Under Governor Rauner's budget proposal for 2016, all state funding for Epilepsy would be eliminated, now local epilepsy advocates are trying to stop the cuts. Supporters with the Epilepsy Foundation out of Rockford, have been in Springfield all day trying to make sure the 130,000 people battling Epilepsy in Illinois, don't lose crucial services. Mary Orlandi is on the Epilepsy Foundation board and has a daughter who has lived with epilepsy for 42 years. She says these state-funded services have helped her daughter; things like seizure management, assistance with getting medication, therapy, training and more. Orlandi says money from the state can also help with a correct diagnosis. "If it's cut, these children or even young adults or adults, are not going to get the support they need or the medications that they need because they're misdiagnosed," said Orlandi. Orlandi says these services also help get Epilepsy patients to doctor appointments when needed. She says a lot of patients have to travel far for treatment, like her daughter who goes into Chicago. Epilepsy advocates are stressing to write your local representatives, protesting these cuts. Right now, it's just a proposal, there's been no vote. There is a … Continue reading
