Dr. Quyen Nguyen, a surgeon-scientist at the University of California at San Diego, collaborated with Nobel Laureate Dr. Roger Tsien to develop our compound, which makes nerves glow during surgery. Currently in the preclinical phase, this proprietary human nerve peptide is based on their breakthrough peptide (ALM-488) and is selective for human nerves. This research earned Dr. Nguyen a Presidential Early Career Scientist Award in 2014 and has been lauded by some of the world’s top surgeons. Human clinical trials are scheduled to begin in 2020.
