We have cured cancer in mice many times. The trick is getting it formulated for humans in ways that are similarly effective and non-lethal. Put another way, signs of efficacy in mice is necessary, but not sufficient, of a human-applicable treatment.
As far as I know we aren’t able to cure cancer in mice. Sure we can cure them of artificial cancers we give them in the lab, but actually curing spontaneous mouse cancer in outbred mouse populations (i.e. something like human cancer) is not something I have ever seen anyone try, let alone succeed.
The article does mention that they also treated a strain of mice that routinely develops tumors in "all ten breasts" and they responded to the therapy too, but not as fully, requiring multiple treatments and not yielding as high a rate of success.
Yes, but I was responding to the OP that claimed we know how to cure cancer in mice, when we have never tried. I suspect that we are actually a lot better at curing real cancer in people than in mice.
Fair point, I was just saying there's still a good chance it'll work (at least if the induced tumors are anything like 'natural' tumors.) Very interested in seeing how this goes, either way.
He's not saying that. He's arguing that, were Tesla not to take the patents, there was a good chance one of the established auto makers would have taken them. This would have been the problem, as the entrenched players probably would have used the patents to stifle innovation in order to maintain dominance.
Longtime HN member here. We created this project at Founders Fund over the last month and a half to give startup founders and employees an idea of the economic ramifications that follow from a term sheet. We have thoroughly vetted the underying model from some of the top attorneys in the valley and hope this can become a go-to for those raising money.
All comments and questions are welcome, I'll be here all day.
Rather than providing one exit value, a graph over a range could be helpful, to illustrate key thresholds, like the slope-change introduced by preferences or the exit values needed to provide the founders/VCs a particular return.
Also, adding an optional 'months to exit' would allow displaying the effective internal rates-of-return for a given exit value.
There's also http://preferredreturn.com/calculator that has the graphing you describe and the ability to add multiple rounds. However, the FF one has a better interface for convertible debt & early stage.
I assume you mean the existing option pool. Try changing the pool update to "post" (the radio button at the bottom) and you will see the outcomes change.
Hypothetically, you could own 100% of your company and have an option pool of x% and never allocate it to anyone, leaving you with full ownership of the company.
It does have an impact. If the update is included pre-investment, it won't have a noticeable impact on the economic outcome, but if it is not done pre-funding, it will. You can simulate this by toggling between "pre" and "post" at the bottom.
Note that we are changing it so that the pre-investment equity stake and option pool can't add up to > 100%. Thanks for the feedback!
Yeah, that makes sense or have it back in to founder's original ownership percentage. But that can also be confusing.
For those people out there who don't build financial models, making this "model" in a user friendly way is really, really challenging and you did a really nice job on it. My UX would have been terrible in comparison.
One Note: I didn't notice the pre and post buttons at the bottom because the text was hard to read on internet explorer on my office computer. It looks like the text was selected on a super high res monitor (like a nice mac) because on a "normal" office PC it is pretty rough.
