  1. Sorry Prof G, for the avoidance of doubt, are you stating that you solely made these slides apart from the two you mentioned?

    1. That is correct. I produced my talk and Genzyme's team got their team to make them look beautiful and put them on their template. They changed slide 6 from my version to another more simple version and they modified my conclusion slide. The other slides are mine. Please note my talk has nothing to do with Genzyme's drugs; I was simply promoting early active treatment with monitoring and individualizing treatment options.

  2. No it is not correct, Prof G. I'm not sure if you understand the meaning of solely, but it does not mean you and Genzyme. I think you should declare who has edited your slides in the future, it shows a lack of professional ethics if you claim these as yours when someone else has made them. I wonder what the GMC would think? I also wonder what kind of 'professor' would be willing to have their own opinions modified by a company. You do not fit the bill of a serious academic.

    1. Sure no problem. Someone else made them then. To take this argument to the extreme I should acknowledge that Microsoft actually made them; I used PowerPoint software. Thank you Microsoft. I couldn't imagine a world without PowerPoint? Actually, I could some presenters used Apple Software that had images and slides zooming in and out that made you feel vertiginous.

    2. Do you fit the bill of a troll?Do you think that academics make all the slides concerning company trials? What about posters. If i said the colour choice of your car was crap would you listen you may if the point was a good one you may not also. prof trapp gave a great talk using some graphics that originated in Doctor Loves lab I use them in some of my talks. Does that make him unprofessional or unbelievable of course not

  3. You have to ask the A's from Cambridge.Maybe they were busy maybe they dont want to be seen to involved with pharma maybe g does a better job.
