  • AGAINST Continuing Edison Research
    The Eight Edison Debate 2 Peyton Chiotti• Miranda Vanlith Thomas Rolfs • Claire Johnson Position: AGAINST continuing Edison research. Perspective: (Elizabeth) HOLMES' INTERESTS Strategy: Discontinuing Edison, redirecting Holmes’ career so she can start paying debts instead ​ of prison. Background ● In the last days of Theranos, December 2017 Theranos was forced to mortgage all of their assets to an investment group called fortress investment group for a 100M$ loan. ● One of the main conditions of the loan agreement was that Theranos was to produce audited financial statements. According to Phillipe, they had not done so since 2009. ● Over 700M$ was given to Theranos between 2015 and 2013. Not one of the investors had ever asked for financial audits. ● In the spring of 2018, Theranos received the final audit, forcing them to disclose that they didn't have enough money to continue any further research. ● On March 14, 2018, the SEC filed charges against Theranos, Elizabeth Holmes (CEO), and Ramesh Balwani (COO). The SEC claimed that Theranos had been lying when they said that they were conducting blood tests on The Edison. ● Theranos and Holmes settled immediately. Holmes was stripped of voting control of Theranos, could not become a director of any company for 10 years and she was fined 500K$ ● After battling multiple charges, she and Balwani stand trial in summer 2020 for 11 accounts of wire fraud totaling over 100 million ● Character of circumstances ○ Concerns that matter the most ■ Holmes has proven she cannot be trusted to run a company by enacting several accounts of fraud and deception. ■ Her intentions of creating a device that could provide affordable in-home blood testing were whole, however, her means of creating such a device were flawed.

  • A Work Project Presented As Part of the Requirements for the Award of a Master’S Degree In
    A Work Project presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Master’s degree in Finance from the Nova School of Business and Economics. THERANOS: BETTING ON BLOOD DIOGO JESUS NETO Work project carried out under the supervision of: Paulo Pinho 06-01-2020 Abstract Theranos was a Silicon Valley start-up founded by Elizabeth Holmes in 2003. Holmes claimed to have developed a new blood-testing device that had the potential to revolutionize the healthcare industry. She established partnerships with Walgreens and Safeway to make her technology available nationwide. She also secured a prestigious board of directors and an equally impressive investor base that raised over $700 million at a peak valuation of $9 billion. However, an investigation by The Wall Street Journal revealed the company had misled investors and endangered patients’ lives. In 2018, Theranos collapsed after years of battling lawsuits and federal charges. Keywords: Theranos, Corporate Governance, Fundraising, Due Diligence This work used infrastructure and resources funded by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (UID/ECO/00124/2013, UID/ECO/00124/2019 and Social Sciences DataLab, Project 22209), POR Lisboa (LISBOA-01-0145-FEDER-007722 and Social Sciences DataLab, Project 22209) and POR Norte (Social Sciences DataLab, Project 22209). 1 Theranos: Betting on Blood “One of the most epic failures in corporate governance in the annals of American capitalism”. - John Carreyrou1 On June 28, 2019, a crowd of journalists awaited Elizabeth Holmes at the door of the San Jose Federal Court in California for a pre-trial hearing2. She was accused of engaging in a multi-million- dollar scheme to defraud investors, doctors, and patients alongside her former partner, Ramesh “Sunny” Balwani.

  • Theranos' Bad Blood
    Theranos’ Bad Blood In 2003, Stanford University student Elizabeth Holmes founded the health care company Theranos. The goal of the company was to revolutionize health care. Beginning with the goal of creating a patch to deliver drugs, the company instead shifted focus to developing a simple and effective method for blood diagnosis. Holmes dropped out of Stanford and began raising millions of dollars in funding. The company claimed that its technology could offer over 240 tests from just a prick of the finger. Test results could be delivered to a patient’s phone in hours, and a single test would cost less than half of the reimbursement rate of Medicare and Medicaid. Blood could be diagnosed easily without the need for many vials of blood drawn from patients’ veins or expensive lab work. By 2014, the company was valued at $9 billion, of which Holmes held a majority stake. Many investors backed the company based on the promise of the technology. Holmes received glowing profiles in news magazines, was featured on television shows, and presented keynote addresses at tech conferences. But the excitement of investors and the promise of the technology did not translate into success. Operating largely in a cloak of secrecy, the company could never validate its claims about its blood sampling technology, and many of its lab results went unchecked. In 2015, journalist John Carreyrou investigated the company for an article in The Wall Street Journal. He disclosed problems in the company’s equipment and testing methods. He found that the company did not even use its own technology in tests and often relied on older technology from other companies.

  • Patent Law's Reproducibility Paradox
    SHERKOW IN PRINTER FINAL.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 1/5/2017 11:59 AM PATENT LAW’S REPRODUCIBILITY PARADOX JACOB S. SHERKOW† ABSTRACT Clinical research faces a reproducibility crisis. Many recent clinical and preclinical studies appear to be irreproducible—their results cannot be verified by outside researchers. This is problematic for not only scientific reasons but also legal ones: patents grounded in irreproducible research appear to fail their constitutional bargain of property rights in exchange for working disclosures of inventions. The culprit is likely patent law’s doctrine of enablement. Although the doctrine requires patents to enable others to make and use their claimed inventions, current difficulties in applying the doctrine hamper or even actively dissuade reproducible data in patents. This Article assesses the difficulties in reconciling these basic goals of scientific research and patent law. More concretely, it provides several examples of irreproducibility in patents on blockbuster drugs—Prempro, Xigris, Plavix, and Avastin—and discusses some of the social costs of the misalignment between good clinical practice and patent doctrine. Ultimately, this analysis illuminates several current debates concerning innovation policy. It strongly suggests that a proper conception of enablement should take into account after-arising evidence. It also sheds light on the true purpose—and limits—of patent disclosure. And lastly, it untangles the doctrines of enablement and utility. Copyright © 2017 Jacob S. Sherkow. † Associate Professor, Innovation Center for Law and Technology, New York Law School.

This week, we'll be talking about the Texas abortion law, SB 8, the trial of fairness, founder Elizabeth Holmes, and the potential release of RFKs assassin, Sirhan Sirhan. As always, we look forward to answering some of your questions at the end of the show. This has been a long week. We have had some really, really heavy news, and we're going to get into that. But before we do that, I want to talk about a tweet that we got this week with asking some advice, and I want to hear your advice on that. But before we even get to that, I think we need to be fortified with something else, which is the amazing, upbeat news that Abba, the greatest band in pop music history, is recording a new album after 40 years. I'm so excited. We were talking about this yesterday and as a result, Kim has got a song popping in my head. I can't stop. Kimberly Atkins Stohr: Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance. It's a good song. Barb McQuade: Are you guys Abba fans? Joyce Vance: I'm going to scare y'all with me singing, Dancing Queen. Because I mean, you would run screaming away. But it's stuck in my head. Yeah. I'm so excited about this new album. Kimberly Atkins Stohr: Me too. Barb McQuade: As a child of the seventies, Dancing Queen was the ultimate song when you had like your friends over, and you're hanging out in the basement, and you're playing records on the record player, that you sing into your hairbrush and kind of dance around in the basement.
