Thanks for posting the links, Bear. Did you find anything related to the discussion and summary discussion by Stefano Del Prato and Kausik Ray? Maybe it wasn't recorded in quite the same way.
I came away with the impression that apabetalone's selective approach to regulating gene expression was certainly of great interest, although I would have preferred Plutzky talking more about it rather than JQ-1. I also felt that these academics are still trying to understand the why and how of the whole epigenetic mechanism and that there is a whole lot to learn in this arena for many years to come.
If DM is right about his contention that RVX has an 8 year lead in this area, then we are certainly due to get more notice as this gets into the mainstream news media.
