Articles about epilepsy and gene therapy

Report this content

Lacerta Bio, a New York-based business development consultancy, will be writing and publishing a series of articles on epilepsy, gene therapy and related topics. Beginning December 1st, the articles will appear monthly on http://lacertabio.com/home/epilepsy/ .

The initiative was conceived jointly by Lacerta Bio’s Carlos N. Velez and CombiGene’s CEO Bengt Westrin during a recent meeting in Copenhagen. Dr. Velez’ articles and blogs are distributed to life science business professionals and investors around the world. Bengt Westrin now hopes that these articles will also reach out to CombiGene’s shareholders and others that have an interest in these fields. The first article, titled “Epilepsy: An Introduction” is available at http://lacertabio.com/home/epilepsy/epilepsy-an-introduction/

“We have realized for a while that CombiGene needed something like this, and I’ve been on the lookout for someone in Sweden that could do it”, he says. “But when meeting Carlos, I realized it didn’t have to be a Swede, and it didn’t have to be published at our own website. I don’t think the language will be much of a problem for CombiGene’s Swedish followers.”

About CombiGene AB
By combining modern neuroscience with recent advances in gene delivery, CombiGene has developed a method shown to suppress epileptic seizures in preclinical studies. Our current focus is on continuing to develop this method into an effective and safe therapy for epilepsy patients, but the method may also have development potential as a means of treating other neurological disorders.
Founded on the basis of scientific discoveries made at Lund University and the University of Copenhagen, CombiGene has offices at Medicon Village in Lund, Sweden. The company is public and listed on the Swedish marketplace AktieTorget. www.combigene.com
