25. Furman has not directed us to corroboration for much of Dr. Furman's testimony. Dr. Liotta's smples: 26. Furman has submitted evidence that appears to be a letter from Dr. Liotta to the F 'Iman inventors. (Exh. 2038). 27. The letter, dated 3 November 1989, states as follows: As you know, we have recently developed a number of novel approaches for synthesizing antiviral nucleosides. In the course of our studies, we have prepared a number of novel nucleosides which, to our knowledge, have never been tested for their antiviral activity. It would be very helpM to us if you could evaluate these materials in your antiviral screens. If you are interested in pursuing this matter, would you please arrange to have a testing agreement sent to me so that we can initiate this matter? 28. Furman has submitted evidence that appears to be a letter from Dr. Liotta to Dr. Painter. (Exh. 2039). 29. The letter, dated 18 July 1990, states as follows: I was glad to hear that all the legal details between Wellcome and Emory have finally been resolved. As a consequence, I am pleased to be able to send you sixteen samples to be evaluated for antiviral activity. In accord with our conversations on the matter, I have coded the compounds as DCL-01 through DCL-16 (see attached sheet). I look forward to hearing the outcome of the bioassays. 30, Furman has submitted evidence that appears to be a research agreement between BW and Emory University, (Exh. 2040). The agreement states, inter jilia, that: 14Page: Previous 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
