Jack B. Cowie III

Melissa Ann Brown, PhD

Melissa Ann Brown, PhD

Founder & Chief Executive Officer

 

Jack is a dedicated researcher of auto immune diseases and disorders, with an intense focus on neuroimmunology.   Jack has spent the past 16 years committed to the eradication of suffering from neurodegeneration.   His absence of formal medical training has allowed him to explore, and discover, methods, and opportunities,  as well as creation and maturation of new molecular entities to arrest disease.  

Jack's motivation stems from familial relationships with multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's Disease, pulmonary fibrosis, colon cancer, Parkinson's Disease, and mast cell activation syndrome.
