Fred: If the company had rec'd a grant I'm sure it would have been announced. My thinking, as I mentioned eariler, is the company has to show it has the staff and facility in place to conduct and complete the work requested in the grant application. Again just guessing but the agency may have returned the application pending showing they can complete the study, Not unusal. I'll give the company an 80% chance of approval which equals success. All good stuff. The risk vs reward in my opinion is high.
