ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc. (PMN) is participating in the Second Annual Undruggable Leaders Forum, a virtual event to be held on September 15-16.

ProMIS Chief Development Officer, Dr. Johanne Kaplan, will be presenting her talk entitled “Selective Targeting of Misfolded Pathogenic Proteins in Neurodegenerative Diseases” on September 16 at 12:40 pm EST in the session “The Next Undruggable Leaders”.

Attendees will learn how ProMIS Neurosciences is using a computational modelling platform to generate monoclonal antibodies selectively targeting conformational epitopes on toxic oligomers of proteins implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson’s disease.

Registered attendees can view the presentation live during the conference; a recorded version for attendees will also be available to watch at their convenience.

ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc. is a development-stage biotechnology company focused on discovering and developing antibody therapeutics selectively targeting toxic oligomers implicated in the development and progression of neurodegenerative diseases, in particular Alzheimer’s disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Its proprietary target discovery engine is based on the use of two complementary techniques.

It applies its thermodynamic, computational discovery platform -ProMIS™ and Collective Coordinates – to predict novel targets known as Disease Specific Epitopes on the molecular surface of misfolded proteins.

ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc. (PMN) is trading at C$0.20 at 12:42 pm ET.
