National InvestorCompany Spotlight on Sernova Corporation (TSXV-SVA; OTCQB-SEOVF) KEY UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI COLLABORATION SOLIDIFIED: --- Sernova announced (the news RIGHT HERE) on Thursday that it has entered into a research agreement with the University of Miami to advance the development of its Cell Pouch cell therapy platform combined with the novel conformal coating cellular immune protection technology licensed exclusively to the company by the university. As CEO/President Dr. Philip Toleikis wrote to me afterward, "...The announcement today of the U of Miami collaboration is extremely important because elimination of the required immunosuppression medications used to protect cells from immune system attack by coating the cells with conformal coating (to which Sernova owns the worldwide exclusive license) advances Sernova beyond its peers and could significantly expand the treatable patient population to the less sick diabetic patients..." ____________________________________ TOMORROW'S EXCITING WEBINAR! At 1:00 p.m. tomorrow, Dr. Toleikis will be joined by Dr. Alice Tomei, associate professor at the University of Miami. Quoting from Thursday's news release: "...Dr. Alice Tomei, of the renowned Diabetes Research Institute (DRI) at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, is an associate professor and international expert in immunoprotection and diabetes immunoengineering. As part of this important collaboration, Dr. Tomei and her team is working closely with Sernovas R&D team. The expert teams have developed a series of key preclinical and polymer characterization studies. In addition, work is being conducted to scale-up the conformal coating technology process. The ultimate goal of this work is to support and accelerate the anticipated clinical evaluation of the Cell Pouch platform without the need for immunosuppression in patients with brittle T1D..."
