Some of the most pervasive, expensive and debilitating of these chronic diseases are Central Nervous System disorders which today affect more than 60M Americans. Current therapies are limited; in many cases, while drugs may exist to battle these diseases, the side effects can be worse than the effects of the disease itself. Consider if there was a way to deliver just the right amount of these powerful pharmacologic agents at just the right time and to just the parts of the human body that needed it, avoiding systemic side effects and improving the quality of life for patients. That approach would be the vehicle for radical progress in the fight against disease like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, Multiple Sclerosis, and Depression, among others. Mir Imran is CEO and Chairman of InCube Labs, a life sciences research lab. Mir's passion is creating medical solutions that dramatically improve patient outcomes and change the standard of care.
