NervGen Pharma Corp. announced the formation of its Alzheimer's Disease Scientific Advisory Board (AD-SAB) with the appointment of four world-class scientists and clinical researchers in Alzheimer's disease: Jeffrey Cummings, MD, ScD; George Perry, PhD; Henrik Zetterberg, MD, PhD; and Bruce Lamb, PhD. The AD- SAB will work closely with NervGen as the Company plans its upcoming preclinical studies and clinical trials and in the analyses of the results from these studies. Dr. George Perry, PhD, is the current and founding Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease and Semmes Distinguished University Chair in Neurobiology at the University of Texas, San Antonio. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Zoology from the University of California, Santa Barbara and his PhD in Marine Biology from the Scripps Institute of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego. Dr. Perry has received a number of awards for his research in the Alzheimer's disease space, including the Denham Harman Research Award, the Senior Investigator Award from the College of Geriatric Psychoneuropharmacology and the Zenith and Temple Awards from the Alzheimer's Association. Dr. Jeffrey Cummings, MD, ScD, serves as Director of the Chamber-Grundy Center for Transformative Neuroscience at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and is Director Emeritus of the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health. Dr. Cummings is the originator of the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), a widely used clinical test battery that has been translated in over 75 languages and used around the world to assess and monitor dementia-related symptoms. Dr. Cummings has been recognized for his research leadership in Alzheimer's disease with the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award from the Alzheimer's Association and is a recipient of numerous other honors, including from the Society for Behavioral and Cognitive Neurology, American Association of Geriatric Psychiatry, International Society of CNS Drug Development, and the American Geriatrics Society. Dr. Henrik Zetterberg, MD, PhD, is a Professor of Neurochemistry and Head of the Department of Psychiatry and Neurochemistry at Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg. With a background in molecular biology and clinical chemistry, Dr. Zetterberg has spent the last 20 years focusing on the development of biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and other brain disorders. He has developed new diagnostic tests for Alzheimer's disease, as well as new preclinical models. Dr. Zetterberg has received numerous prizes, including the Erik K. Fernström Prize for Junior Scientists and the Inga Sandeborg Prize for Research on Alzheimer's Disease. He is professor of neurochemistry and head of the Department of Psychiatry and Neurochemistry at the Sahlgrenska Academy, senior consultant in clinical chemistry at the Sahlgrenska University Hospital, professor of neurochemistry at University College London and the UK Dementia Research Institute and a Wallenberg Scholar. Dr. Bruce Lamb, PhD, serves as executive director of the Paul and Carole Stark Neurosciences Research Institute at Indiana University School of Medicine. Dr. Lamb is a world-expert on the biological underpinnings of Alzheimer's disease and related dementia. He currently serves as chair of the medical and scientific advisory group and as a member of the Board of Directors of the Alzheimer's Association. Dr. Lamb is an active member of the Alzheimer's Association International Society to Advance Alzheimer's Research and Treatment, which convenes the global Alzheimer's disease and dementia science community around key research areas. He is responsible for launching the professional interest area tied to immunity. Dr. Lamb is also a board member of the Alzheimer's Association Greater Indiana Chapter and is actively involved in advocacy to support increased research funding for Alzheimer's disease.
