watching ISCO .60 As of October 26, 2009, there were 66,568,005 shares of the registrant’s common stock outstanding. And just put ATHX on the watchlist. Very low volume and still researching. The number of outstanding shares of the registrant’s common stock, $0.001 par value, as of October 31, 2009 was 18,929,333. I'm still rolling with a couple other stem cells and gene therapy companies. Nice to see some recovery!

I've been watching GERN and STEM, even did a flip on ACTC some of the stem cell stocks have had a bit of a rally on GERN's news imo.
