Thanks for posting, nice interview and the take for me is the difference of an analyst with the following background compared to another certain recent major firm analyst and how he presented his views based on multi decade projections from what I don't know:


The Life Sciences Report: You began your career as a biochemist, but got your doctorate in neurochemistry. These disciplines are clearly helpful in your due diligence on the science of a micro- or small-cap company. Do you look at the science first?



Keith Markey: Absolutely. That’s where I feel like I’m really in the helm. I look at the scientific evidence to understand whether the technology underlying a drug is truly unique. Medical devices are a different story. But for a therapeutic molecule, understanding how it works in the cell and in the patient is absolutely necessary.


Isn't the other guy a reporter for the Daily Planet?

You're quite welcome.  I've been a long-time lurker...and a longer-time shareholder...so happy to contribute back.  More nuggets:

Remember years ago where MNKD had announced that they had a $200M order from a foreign country?  Many speculated this was Israel given his connection.  Also, there was Sanofi press that they're planning to make Afrezza available in Israel ASAP.  Here's hoping for a black-swan event.

I agree...it's a keeper! 

Need to find a thread that will allow us to find it easily...then move or repost this one.  Perhaps the Moderators can help.... 

[BD]

Feel free to start a thread in the "MNKD Resource Center" board (near the bottom of the home page.)

I did as you suggested. It's not an active thread...seems buried.

What I'd like to see is a section devoted to helping prospective users gain the education and cost containment that they need to make the decision to obtain a sample...or a prescription. Might also contain ways to persuade an endo or PCP who seems reluctant. (What ARE the barriers they'd need to navigate..??)

Some of the videos incorporating CGM readings are helpful...esp for Type 1s. I think first-hand experiences can help...but savvy adults know that anecdotal evidence goes only so far.

To be honest, I have not approached this from the standpoint of "what does a diabetic need to know"...or a doc.

4balance,

There are so many topics that want "top of the page" status here. It's often a struggle to figure out how to configure the board to be the most useful to the most people.

While it is very laudable to provide a thread featuring resources for those using the product, you must remember this is first and foremost a board for investors in the stock. So unfortunately, for some topics, you will need to scroll down on the page.

You know, Liane, if Hillary keeps getting involved in scandals, you might consider a run...

That was a nice video, never knew Al's granddaughter was so talented!

Typically, Liane, I only look at the "All about MNKD" section.  I was not really aware of the other sections, since "All about" seems to receive the most attention and activity.

In truth, I'm trying to help my friends and family give Afrezza a try...many of us investors are striving for a win/win.  To that end I've assembled a few links to videos and scientific data.  I'd add help like this, for the financial aspect.

Just trying to spread the word and build adoption...
