Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

On December 17, 2004, Tanner+Co. advised Grant Life Sciences, Inc. of its intention to cease to act as the Company’s independent public accountant for the audit of the year ending December 31, 2004.

From the date of Tanner+Co.’s appointment through the date of their dismissal on December 17, 2004, there were no disagreements between our company and Tanner +Co. on any matter listed under Item 304 Section (a)(1)(iv) A to E of Regulation S-B, including accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Tanner +Co. would have caused them to make reference to the matter in its reports on our financial statements.

Tanner+Co. reports on the Company's financial statements for the past two fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 contained an opinion expressing substantial doubt as to ability to continue as a going concern. The audit reports contained no other adverse opinion, disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

We provided Tanner+Co. with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K on December 21, 2004, prior to its filing with the SEC, and requested that they furnish us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether they agree with the statements made in this Current Report on Form 8-K, and if not, stating the aspects with which they do not agree. A copy of the letter provided by Tanner+Co., dated December 22, 2004, is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 16.1 and states that Tanner+Co agrees with this disclosure.

The Company's Audit Committee is engaged in the process of selecting new independent public accountants and will file a Form 8-K when the selection of a new auditor has been made.
