grace i missed the 6 o clock news
was fermiscan on it? i can't semm to find any hit ion the 7 news website

Yes drasic, you missed it. David Young spoke about the test. It was all positive. Breast cancer assn spoke too, and this was positive.

They interviewed women in the street, and they were very positive because they didn't like the idea of mammograms. Other women commented how it would be good for younger women that mammograms don't suit.

David Young also spoke about using the test for postrate cancer.

It was all good. Hopefully we'll see some newspaper coverage tomorrow then.
 
same here livid ...
there must be something of a link out there
mggrr i wish i was home or can find the link to it
 
The coverage on channel Seven was about a new imaging technology (MRI) that could prevent woman from undergoing surgery for breast cancer. It wasn't about Fermi unfortunately. Not sure how this new machine got coverage and Fermi didn't?

Check it out on http://au.news.yahoo.com/

I've been critical of the PR manager to date because Fermi has deserved a lot more coverage than what it is received. Considering all the high profile female celebrities that have been affected by Cancer in Australia, it shouldn't be too hard to sell the benefits of the Fermiscan test to the general public or large investors.

I've been told the Fermi PR manager has been waiting for the trial to be completed to launch full scale PR activity. I also believe Fermi CEO has some media interviews lined up next week. Lets hope they get some decent coverage for once!

i ve looked on the 7 news website and can't find any news about fermiscan ether
but did you see the news at 6 o clock at seven?
i know grace did and she did see David Young speaking about the tests...
well you know her reply is about 4 reply's above this one

anyway if she tells me (us) it was there-- than it was there ----
on the website or not

i haven't said this in a long time
but i'm happy the weekend is over
i'm very curious about our fermiscan performance this week
 
I live in country qld and Fermiscan was run on our Channel 7 last night news (which is Brisbane based....I rarely watch 7, but my husband was watching sport and saw an earlier news flash about it).

It was very good coverage. No such think as MRI discussed. You must have a different news wherever you are.

Anyway, they mentioned retail at $249.00, and the comment out in the street was that it was worth it at that price.

Breast cancer assn gave fermi a good wrap too. I think that was important.

Had David Young showing the xray diffraction on cancer vs non-cancer.

Breast cancer assn said this method could detect very early too.

No lies, I promise. It was on TV!
 
Grace, totally believe you and I couldn't be happier.

The link I saw did not mention anything to do with Fermi at all so your update is very much appreciated.

Lets hope the good news keeps coming this week. Share price is up this morning... go fermi go!

Cheers
 
Today fermiscan had a lot of coverage in all kind of newspapers, magazines

here is a google match with all the hit from the last 24h
for the people who are interested

http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q=fermiscan&as_qdr=d&btnG=Search&meta=

basiclly saying all the same
good test but accuracy stressed under the damaged (color and curls)hair...

but here 's the deal
i wonder what the accuracy was when the frist 2000 mammogram test were done

there is lots of room for fermiscan to improve....

and there is also the 200 singapore trails to look out for
strait untreated hair ...let 's see what that brings up


still 17 days to go grace
 
Well I gotta say that I am completely underwhelmed by the market reaction to the latest news from Fermiscan.:rolleyes:
Perhaps this one will be sleeper for some time to come.
All the money must be in the phosphate/potash/iron ore camp.

Either there, or in St George Bank. Perhaps this is a crisitunity, as it looks like fermi might be about to do its oscillation between 70 and 90 cents for the next few months, giving the chance to accumulate more. Looks like the market wants to see fermi make its first dollar before giving its sp a run. This stock certainly teaching the art of patience
 
When the share price didn't move much after the trial completion announcement I thought it was either a large shareholder selling to get cash or perhaps the market was no so impressed with the results, I didn't expect the latter to be the main reason.

Considering all the press coverage around the World in the past few days I also can't blame the PR Manager any more.

The bottom line is clear, the market is still not convinced and wants to see Fermi either improve the results or even better, start selling the test somewhere.

It's hard not to be disappointed having accumulated the stock over the past 18 months already and thinking that the wait was finally over on 9th May, only to discover that we may still have another few months to endure....

I'm still a believer though and hope Fermi management can pull a rabbit out of the hat sooner rather than later.

Lets hope the Singapore trial will show better results based on the previous learnings and process improvements from the Aus trial, not to mention patients with less chances of chemically altered hair.

Many of the Asian Countries may not be as strict as Europe or Australia in relation to regulatory approvals so perhaps Fermi's approved Asian distributor will be able to commercialize faster. Fingers crossed.
 
Down,down,down we go...why!?:mad:
I guess it is a buying opportunity if your cpital is not already tied up.
It looks like 75% success rate is not successful enough??:confused:

I would say this is madness really. Have a bit too much capital in it already to buy more, but we'll see where the share price goes from here. Would be nice to see management buying...come on please???
 
hmm yes not the most glorious time for fermiscan
i agree that at this sp this is an excelletn buy oppertunnity

60 c is a joke
i'll bet we are gonna see some buyer coming in:eek:

i'm not selling ... singapore trails should be almost done
 
Lets hope the Singapore trial results is not "several months" away from now...

See the below question and answer relating to the Singapore trial taken from the last open briefing released on 13th May.

Question:
In January 2008, you commenced a 200-patient clinical trial in Singapore. What is the progress of this trial? Also, what is the strategy behind conducting trials in Singapore?

Answer:
MD David Young
This is a population specific trial to support the results from the 2000 patient
validation trial and to enable medical community and regulatory acceptance in
South Asia. It is expected that it will take several months before the collection of this 200 patient trial is completed.
 
i have just heard that a major asian company is about to join fermiscans share register....at 70cents this is the bargain of the centuary as i see this going to $3-5 by the end of the year.

Can you please tell us where you heard this! How do they join the register when over 80% is held by top 20, and the majority of that is in escrow until October 08. I hope they do, just wondering how and where you heard it. Thanks Grace.
 
Would be fantastic if a big buyer is really coming in soon, but I've also heard this many times already over the past few months so I'll believe it when I see it.

As for the share price, I'd be just as happy to see it get back over $1, but every time the SP tries to make a run after a positive announcement the sellers always seem to over power the buyers which has continually stunted the momentum on each occasion.

In saying all of this, I'd be very happy for any new Company to join the share register... don't care which Country they come from providing they can help the SP :)
