UK Keratoconus Self-Help and Support Association

At 1pm I have my interview, carefully sneaked in amongst a load of other work related meetings

As I feared, the limpet lens has moved and is locked on tighter then Lovelorn Lionel limpet in a love locked limpet embrace on Lillien Loktite limpet

Is it possible to use psycho kenesis to subconceously move a lens to the most uncomfortable postion in stressful situations?

That's really likely.

Maybe if we all willed your lens off your eye (Uri-Geller style) it would fall off.

All together now!

Good luck!

Either you guys were trying to do a Uri Geller to my lens or it wa the hot air con blowing in my face, but Lionel the lumpet lens moved, bud did not pop

Went down the pub fist en-route for a quick alcohol free lager, plate chips and a bread roll Got changed in the car park and no breath mints

Hopefully did not pong too much of stale fags and booze

Will know this time next Friday if I have a second interview.

Chips and a bread roll with alcohol free lager. gareth you certainly know how to prepare for an interview.

I guess ther eis something to the idea that diet maketh the man. My old mother used always to give us fish the night before an exam. I mentioned this to my daughter and she laughed and said, "You did the same to is!"

All the best

I was with friends, so it did atleast help calm me down.

Not sure, don't think I know enough about manufacturing the products I develop!

Starting to have second thoughts now

Was watching some stuff about the human trials. the tv reporter kept talking about the trials going wrong, but I thought the point of them was to see if there were any contra-indications. I'd say they had managed to identify some.

The surprising thing is that the volunteer whom they interviewed on television said that he had never thought that there were any dangers involved in them injecting new drugs or even new classes of drugs into healthy people.

Does your work involve any human trials?

We are a contract lab, so all that is down to the customer paying us. We are now licensed to provide medicines used in clinical trials.

No new chemicals have made it that far, the projects has been bombed out for technical reasons long before it gets that far.

The one in Phase III is a combination product, it has to actives in the same delivery device. Both actives have been on the market for years and prescribed to the patient together, take A first followed by B. We are seeing if the same benefit is had if you use the two together. If so, will make things cheaper for the NHS and better for the enmvironment if only half the materials are needed.

I don't work in that area, I do the work that shows the customer what they are asking for is possible or not.

By the time a medicine makes it to Phase I trials as in the case on the news that went wrong, some toxicology dat should be available. Unfortunatly this is through animal testing rather than on cell cultures from specific organs in the body.

Just shows how much faith some manufacturers and people put in toxicology studies on animals!

Today it is easy to take biopsies of organs without being too invasive and then see what happens to the human cell culture in the presence of a drug prior to giving it to people. Will soon show if the cells behave in an abnormal way.
