Podiatric Surgeon Specializing in Nerve Pain, Rearfoot Reconstruction Comes to Celebration FL

CELEBRATION, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- For people suffering from nerve pain and other complex foot and ankle conditions, there's a reason to celebrate in Celebration. This week, Eric Krznaric, DPM, opened a new clinic for Modern Foot & Ankle at 1530 Celebration Blvd., in Celebration, Florida.

The office-the tenth for the multi-regional podiatric group-features the brand's signature services, such as digital X-ray technology, evening office hours, and online booking and check-in.

"They call Orlando 'The Happiest Place on Earth' as an ode to Disney," said Dr. Krznaric. "I'm excited to see what it has in store for me."

Dr. Krznaric is a board-certified podiatric surgeon with an impressive list of accomplishments. From playing Division 1 baseball in college, to serving as chief resident during his surgical residency, to completing a vigorous fellowship, Dr. Krznaric pursues every milestone with unparalleled determination.

"The well-rounded nature of my education has taught me different ways to approach a problem," he explained. "During residency, I gained experience in many different fields, including plastic surgery."

With his extensive background, Dr. Krznaric is qualified to treat a wide range of conditions and disorders using the latest techniques.

"My residency director, Dr. Alan MacGill, worked at an orthopedic group, allowing me to train with other subspecialities close to our field," said Dr. Krznaric. "My fellowship training fine-tuned those skills and enabled advancement in procedures such as rearfoot reconstruction and peripheral nerve surgery."

Following his fellowship training, Dr. Krznaric worked in private practice in Pennsylvania. When he heard that t Modern Foot & Ankle was in search of a new podiatrist, he said he seized the opportunity.

"The technology and treatment modalities at this practice make it very appealing for any provider to want to jump in feet first," he touted. "This allows for more efficiency in treating my patients which allows for more quality time in patient care."

According to the Cleveland Clinic, it is estimated that 25% to 30% of Americans will be affected by neuropathy. While many podiatrists choose to refer patients in need of peripheral nerve surgery to other physicians, Dr. Krznaric is proud to offer this service.

"I always want to challenge myself to be the best physician I can be," he said. "But I chose to get the best training available in the field of podiatry for one main reason: I wanted to be able to offer the patients I have the privilege of treating the best care possible."

Modern Foot & Ankle Expands Foothold in Orlando with Two New Clinics, One New Podiatrist

ORLANDO, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Modern Foot & Ankle adds two new offices to its growing network of high tech, patient-centric healthcare facilities. These mark the eighth and ninth locations for the multi-regional podiatric group.

The Oviedo clinic, which opened in May, is located at 1000 Executive Dr. The address for the Lake Mary office is 2500 W. Lake Mary Blvd. It opens today.

Both locations feature Modern Foot & Ankle's signature patient experience, advanced in-house diagnostic equipment, and select evening hours.

Until recently, Jacob Huffman, DPM, has been the Oviedo office's sole provider. But starting this week, a new podiatric surgeon joins the team.

Tamara Nemeroff, DPM, a highly-skilled physician who specializes in sports medicine, reconstructive foot and ankle surgery, trauma, and diabetic limb salvage, will launch the opening of the Lake Mary clinic. She will also rotate between seeing patients at the Oviedo and Casselberry offices.

"It's exciting to be a part of an organization where I can have a real impact on the community," said Dr. Nemeroff. "Ever since I was a little girl, I knew I wanted to help people live healthier, happier lives, regardless of their circumstances. Now I have a great platform to accomplish that."

Dr. Nemeroff comes to Modern Foot & Ankle from JFK Medical Center in Atlantis, Fla., where she completed her postdoctoral training. Having earned her bachelor's degree from the University of Central Florida, she says she always knew she would one day return to the city she calls her second home.

"The people of Orlando are vibrant, diverse, and progressive," said Dr. Nemeroff. "I wanted to serve the area because it has always felt like a home-away-from-home, and I have a network of people I genuinely care about here."

Central Florida's year round sunshine creates an ideal environment for physical fitness-and athletic injuries. As a former track star and current marathon-runner, Dr. Nemeroff can empathize with the overuse injuries she often treats.

"My greatest strengths are my compassion and tenacity, which coincides with the Modern Foot & Ankle ideology of big-city technology, small-town care," she said. "Backed by state-of-the-art resources, I can deliver a level of care to my patients that I wouldn't be able to match as a solo practitioner at a small practice."

Dr. Nemeroff is now accepting new patients and offering same-day appointments. Patients who would like to schedule a visit with her can book online at https://modernfootankle.com/book-appointment/ or call 1-844-MODERN9.

Hit Psychology Book Gets Updated Edition

BOSTON, Mass. /ScoopCloud/ -- "Calm & Sense: A Woman's Guide to Living Anxiety Free," the hit novel by psychologist Wendy Leeds (Calm Day Publishing, ISBN 978-0999901526), has an updated edition out with new updated studies and information. In honor of the new edition, there will be a limited time sale on the ebook version of the book across platforms.

Calm and sense uses a unique women-centric approach to anxiety. The book focuses on the needs of women. Combining up to date data from anxiety studies, personal stories, and practical tips, author Wendy Leeds offers something special in the space.

Leeds is a practicing psychotherapist with both a professional and a personal interest in finding ways to heal anxiety without medication. She has dealt with anxiety all her life and knows what it's like to live with the kind of worry and fear that make the smallest things in life difficult.

In 1995, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent several surgeries and six months of chemotherapy. It was at that low point, that she began a life-long journey to create a calm, centered joyful life, for herself and others. She began by reading everything she could get her hands on about anxiety. Then in 2006 she went back to school to earn two graduate degrees in psychology.

Ashley L Peterson of Mental Health at Home said, "['Calm & Sense'] doesn't feel like a therapist trying to educate you; rather, it has the feel of another regular person having a conversation with you, who just happens to have the knowledge and experience of a therapist. With the wide range of ideas offered in the book, I think any reader is likely to find things that work for them."

"For those who endure chronic anxiety, even seemingly innocuous daily tribulations can take on giant, scary, insurmountable portions," said Roberta Rosenthal Hawkins, MFA, PhD. "'Calm & Sense' is a loving, gentle, often witty, and infinitely helpful path through one's jungle of fears. As one might hope of any jungle guide, the author's compass is sure, her survival kit is well-stocked, and her cheerful, can-do spirit is reassuring and encouraging the whole way."

"Calm and Sense" is nationally distributed by Cardinal Publishing Group. It is published by Calm Day Publishing, and available for sale on Amazon, Barnes and Noble.com, and where books are sold.

Brad Zelinger, Stride's Founder and CEO, explained that "Stride's mission to provide the best possible support to children with autism and their families is deeply personal to me. My sister has an autism-related disorder called Rett Syndrome. She is nonverbal, and requires substantial support in everyday activities. I founded Stride so individuals like her can get the effective therapy they need as early as possible to live more independent, joyous lives. As a Chicago native, I'm particularly motivated to bring Stride's services to underserved areas near where I was raised."

Speaking on the philosophy behind the program, Stride's Clinical Director and University Chair of ABA at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology, Dr. Ashley Whittington-Barnish, PhD, LCP, BCBA-D, NCSP said that "Decades of research demonstrating the effectiveness of early intervention for children with autism underlie our decision to specialize in the early treatment of young learners."

Mobile Truck Mounted Medical POD to Aid Sick and Wounded Ukrainian Civilians Hand Off Event to United Help Ukraine

WASHINGTON, D.C. /ScoopCloud/ -- Pacific Engineering Inc. (PEI) has joined forces with United Help Ukraine (UHU), Gaithersburg, MD to take a small, but critical step to provide much-needed care to Kharkiv's sick and wounded. PEI is honored to make a contribution to UHU by donating a truck-mounted Rapid On Demand - Portable Medical Platform (ROD-PMP™) to provide emergency medical assistance in Ukraine.

This is an urgent need as thousands of sick and wounded civilians and refugees urgently need medical care. The dire need for medical care is felt especially in "de-occupied territories in the beleaguered Kharkiv region," said Maryna Baydyuk, President of UHU.

UHU & PEI are conducting a handoff event in front of the Holodomor Memorial, Washington, DC on June 21, 2022, at 3 p.m. ET.

The memorial is located near the U.S. Capitol at the intersection of North Capitol St. and Massachusetts Ave. This location was chosen due to the historical significance of the Holodomor Memorial to five plus million Victims of the Ukrainian Famine-Genocide during 1932-33. This memorial has become a rallying point for US-Ukraine popular opposition against the Russian/Ukraine war. PEI's PODs can be a game changer for humanitarian assistance and disaster relief, reaching large numbers of people in a short amount of time.

PEI, in response to the COVID-19 Pandemic, first transformed the unique, lightweight, sandwich-composite technology, originally built for other purposes developed by using Navy Small Business Innovative Research initiatives, into safe and transportable COVID-19 testing PODS in 2020. The mobile PODS were deployed and used in Washington DC, Baltimore, MD Virginia Beach, VA and Omaha and Lincoln, NE during the height of the pandemic. Rear Admiral Osie V. Combs, Jr., USN (Ret.), President of PEI stressed the truck-mounted unit is part of a series of mobile units, including trailer-mounted and portable units that can be repurposed and provided to UHU for rapid deployment to Ukraine.

UHU was started in 2014 by a small group of people who had a personal connection to Ukraine in Washington, DC. UHU has been actively providing aid through services such as medical supplies (first aid kits and hospital equipment), personal protection equipment for medical and survival needs, portable surgical lighting, and armored ambulances.

In all, approximately 45 tons of supplies have been shipped to Ukraine with the continued assistance and hard work of UHU members and supporters. UHU provides medical aid and humanitarian relief to brave Ukrainians defending themselves. Its dozens of volunteers have prepared and shipped more than 7,000 medical kits for Ukrainian soldiers and collected thousands of pounds of food and medical supplies for civilians.

"When the Russian invasion began, we were appalled by the deliberate devastation of Ukrainian medical facilities. We immediately began to consider how we could apply our experience from developing COVID-19 PODS, expertise, and technology to help Ukrainians treat their wounded and sick civilians," Combs added.

PEI's mobile PODs can be available to communities, hospitals, agencies, NGO's and humanitarian organizations throughout the United States. The truck-mounted POD is outfitted with two clinic-type treatment areas as well as ample cabinet storage for medical supplies. Its extreme mobility allows the POD to move to numerous locations easily, quickly, and efficiently. Our design and manufacturing facility stands ready to provide POD systems within weeks of order placement.

All POD units utilize composite materials which have excellent properties that are lightweight, corrosion resistant, and easy to maintain. These units are deployable in all seasons, environments and are designed to be used for portable hospitals. PEI has designed the truck-mounted POD that can be customized to meet specific user needs and a focus to support humanitarian assistance and disaster relief.

ABOUT PEI:

Pacific Engineering, Inc. (PEI), is a high-tech small business located outside of Lincoln, Nebraska. Since 1998, PEI has been a leading designer and manufacturer of advanced composite structures.

The Spodak Dental Group Completes 45th Anniversary Celebration by Changing 45 Lives and Donating More Than $107,000 in Dental Treatment

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Spodak Dental Group team is honored and proud to have been a staple in the Delray Beach community since 1976. As their way of saying thanks and giving back, they spent their entire 45th Anniversary Year providing complimentary dental services to community members who otherwise wouldn't be able to fit needed care into their lifestyle. Not only did they help to improve the lives of 45 community members and donate more than $107,000 in dental treatment, they also partnered with local non-profits and community organizations to help them achieve their goals.

"While I aspire to create a legacy for my family in our community, I'm hopeful that we're creating the same for my team members, who are equally dedicated to our cause of service," said Dr. Craig Spodak, general dentist at Spodak Dental Group. "Being in business for 45 years not only means that you're doing something right, it means that your community needs and values you, and there's no better way to show our appreciation than by giving back in the best way that we know how: helping others to smile."

In a continuing effort to align with their core values, "Why we C.L.I.C.," the team of more than 40 team members provided life-changing donations and community outreach as their "thank you" for the community that has supported them since 1976. The core values include:

C: Create a "WOW" experience for ourselves and our patients

L: Lead with authenticity and integrity

I: Inspire each other to achieve remarkable results

C: Cultivate community by providing support and positive communication

To celebrate each core value, the team donated 45 smiles (needed dental treatments) to community members who were in desperate need of care; provided 45 community service hours to local organizations; donated 45 hours to aspiring dental professionals in an effort to better the field of dentistry and help others achieve their professional goals; and cultivated team relationships in the community by hosting 45 hours of social events, respectively.

The Group also teamed up with the Wounded Veterans Relief Fund and Operation120 to provide life-changing dentistry to local veterans who don't have dental coverage but who are in need of dental care.

It protects temperature sensitive medical therapeutics such as COVID-19 Vaccines and Biological and Cellular Therapies including controlled substances that are being distributed and need to be stored at remote, last mile locations. It can be used for Clinical Trials, Home Infusion, Compounding Pharmacies delivering to the home, Academic Research Laboratories and Consumer applications.

"This new technology will save lives in both developed and emerging countries," announced Rick Carlson CEO and founder of ProNova Partners. "We are proud to be a part of bringing this to the world market."

ProNova Partners has assisted expansion or sale of some 400 firms in its history, in multiple areas of the marketplace. "We are very gratified to be able to lend a hand in the movement of great technology such as this into the market."

The technology has resulted in the smallest, most portable "cold chain" system available, with the longest autonomy time between recharges (>96hrs).

By Light Awarded $82M VA Contract

MCLEAN, Va. /ScoopCloud/ -- By Light Professional IT Services LLC (By Light) has been awarded the My HealtheVet (MHV) Development, Security and Operations (DevSecOps) contract by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Valued at $82M over five (5) years, this contract provides for the continued support and development of VA's Veteran-facing Electronic Health portal.

"Team By Light considers it an honor to continue our long and valued partnership with VA to provide innovative DevSecOps solutions to the MHV Program with a Scaled Agile and Digital Services Playbook approach," says Bill Sackewitz, By Light Senior VP for Digital Transformation. "Our team has invested heavily in DevSecOps, User Centered Design, and Lean Agile Product Delivery methods to hasten and improve value delivered to the customer. Our mission in By Light's Chief Strategy Office is to help our teams and our clients adopt new ways of working that lead to better user outcomes."

The MHV patient portal provides healthcare communications and coordination for millions of Veterans, caretakers, and providers. The MHV program is a nationwide initiative intended to improve the overall health of Veterans. It provides an eHealth portal, a secure environment where Veterans can view and manage their personal health record online and access health information, health assessments, and electronic services. Online health resources will enable and encourage patient/provider collaboration, as clinicians will be able to communicate with Veterans more easily.

The online environment will complement existing Veterans Health Administration (VHA) clinical business practices and be transformational in the way health care is delivered and managed. Like other VA systems MHV will eventually be integrated into VA.gov that will be accessible to Veterans from MHV, or other web portals as identified by the government.

"Our team has been supporting the development and expansion of MHV since 2012 and is dedicated to furthering the evolution of one of the U.S. Government's largest and most important technical programs benefiting those who have served," states Matt Bain, MHV Program Director at By Light. "We are very proud of our ten years of supporting MHV eHealth delivery capabilities and look forward to further deliver new and innovative solutions that support VA's Office of Connected Care ecosystem and improve the experience for Veterans and their care givers."

"We are happy to have By Light back and to continue the great work we have done together over the past decade," notes Greg Kirk, MHV Program Manager. "The MHV solution will continue to evolve with the DevSecOps contract, and the results will ultimately deliver better products and services faster to the Veterans."

About By Light:

By Light Professional IT Services LLC (https://www.bylight.com) headquartered in McLean, Virginia, is an ISO 9001, 20000-1, and 27001 registered and CMMI Level 3 rated systems integrator that provides innovative IT, infrastructure solutions, and full spectrum cyberspace operations for U.S. Federal and State Government Agencies.

Vibrant Med Spa Expands Wellness Center

CRESTWOOD, Ky. /ScoopCloud/ -- Vibrant Med Spa has expanded its facilities to accommodate demand for its Club Wellness, a key component of the company's offerings. In addition, Vibrant Med Spa has added two new aesthetic treatments, CoolPeel and Subnovii.

Club Wellness was created to help people break old, bad habits through medically supervised wellness services. Spearheaded by owner Erica Chowning, APRN, FNP-C, and Wellness Associate Jenna Lee, RN, the most important aspects of the Club Wellness program are life coaching and personalized support.

As part of Club Wellness, each patient receives an individual assessment, which is used to tailor a plan specifically in line with their personal aspirations, whether they be weight loss, improved energy, or building strength and muscle. Individual programs can include:

* Providing the right supplements

* Personalized meal prep education

* Focused exercise demonstrations

* Metabolism-boosting injections.

"We don't just hand you a set of wellness tools and send you on your way," noted Chowning. "We partner with you and create a nurturing environment that lets you thrive and make measurable progress toward your health and aesthetic goals."

Chowning said the two new aesthetic treatments added at Vibrant Med Spa, CoolPeel and Subnovii, give patients some exciting new options for reducing skin imperfections.

CoolPeel was developed to help combat imperfections from aging, sun damage, acne, or other skin concerns, and reveal smoother, younger-looking skin. It promotes new collagen and elastin formation by safely and comfortably delivering the benefits of a traditional CO2 laser resurfacing treatment by targeting only the superficial layer of skin. This means less discomfort and downtime.

The Tetra CoolPeel device delivers targeted laser energy to skin in a more controlled way. Instead of treating the entire desired area in one session, CoolPeel Louisville treats a certain percentage of the area, leaving small patches of undamaged skin in between the treated parts. These untreated areas of skin actually assist in boosting recovery and lead to more rapid healing. Over a series of CoolPeel sessions (typically about four treatments spaced one month apart), skin is gradually resurfaced to reveal more even-toned, younger-looking results.

Subnovii is a sophisticated skin resurfacing device that uses plasma technology to effectively promote fibroblast activity in the skin. This process stimulates the skin's natural production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, which are the building blocks of healthy, youthful-looking skin. Plasma skin resurfacing relies on a stream of ionized gas to resurface skin's tissues, ultimately resulting in a tightening of the epidermis. Subnovii is the first FDA-cleared handheld plasma device that uses low-frequency energy along with a patented wavelength and power combination to address multiple signs of aging.

To learn more about Club Wellness, Subnovii, and CoolPeel, visit https://www.vibrantmed.com/.

Vibrant Med Spa treats patients from Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, and even farther away, offering a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere with a "modern farmhouse" feel. Located on the outskirts of Louisville, just off I-71, the spa is convenient for residents throughout the area without traffic hassles. A hand-selected professional staff member devotes more time to each patient than typical medical spas. Treatments offered include injectables, ultrasound and laser treatments, facials, brows and lashes, weight loss, and nutrition.

The med spa is located at 6402 Westwind Way in Crestwood, Kentucky.

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- ProNova Partners, a Los Angeles based, 25-year-old Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) firm has announced their commission to facilitate the sale of a new, patented device to lower mortality and other risks in specific, major heart surgery procedures.

The device lowers mortality, stroke risk and other risk factors in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedures.

ProNova Partners has facilitated the sale of over 400 various opportunities in divergent areas. "This broad range of experience and exposure in multiple areas of the marketplace has been very helpful to our consultation work in the medical and tech arenas," Carlson stated.

The Pap Corps Donates $3.5 Million to Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center

DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- You can't keep champions down! Rebounding from COVID-19, The Pap Corps Champions for Cancer Research (www.thepapcorps.org) came back full swing with their fundraising for the 2021/2022 fiscal year. At their May meeting, the 501(c)(3) nonprofit donated $3.5 million to Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. Almost 300 Pap Corps members, along with leaders from Sylvester, enjoyed a beautiful breakfast at Boca West, where the check was presented to Jayne Sylvester Malfitano on behalf of the center.

"I am so proud of our amazing members," declared Sally Berenzweig, CEO of The Pap Corps. "Your dedication and passion, especially during these past few years, has been such an inspiration."

Jayne Sylvester Malfitano, whose parents endowed the center, spoke eloquently about the special partnership between The Pap Corps and Sylvester, and shared several of the numerous scientific advancements that have occurred thanks to research, including the rise of precision medicine, which is an approach to cancer treatment that is targeted at genetic markers in each person's unique cancer.

Sylvester is the only NCI-Designated Cancer Center in South Florida, and The Pap Corps has donated over $110 million during the past 70 years to support cancer research. To celebrate these seven decades of giving, Robert Weinroth, Mayor of Palm Beach County presented a proclamation honoring the nonprofit's service.

Other event highlights included recognizing top donors in multiple categories, honoring retiring chapter presidents and welcoming new chapter presidents.

"It is with such joy that we gather today to celebrate our members and honor the unique role our organization plays in advancing lifesaving cancer treatments," said Susan Dinter, Pap Corps Chair of the Board. "We look forward to creating a world without cancer, but until we achieve that goal, The Pap Corps will be here!"

About The Pap Corps:

Since its founding in 1952, The Pap Corps has donated more than $110 million to Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, including a historic $50 million pledge in 2016. The Pap Corps derives its name from Dr. George Papanicolaou, a pioneer in cytopathology and early cancer detection, who introduced the world to the revolutionary 'Pap' test. A small group of women began the organization to support his efforts, and over the decades it has grown into an organization of over 20,000 men and women, in over 50 chapters, who raise funds to support research for all types of cancers.

National Nurses Week Kicks Off with Virtual Portrait Exhibition Honoring Pandemic Healthcare Workers

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Producer and photographer Mariana Tosca of Blue Jasper Productions and Tosca Photography announces the launch of "Covid Courageous" (CovidCourageous.org). This unique virtual exhibition blends photographic portraiture with interviews of frontline healthcare workers, which spotlight each individual's personal pandemic experience.

The permanent virtual exhibition will open at the beginning of National Nurses Week, an annual week-long celebration which begins May 6 and ends on May 12, 2022, the birthday of Florence Nightingale who was the founder of modern nursing. This moving tribute to nurses and healthcare providers comes alive through the words and images of frontline workers who were each photographed with an item which represented their personal experience while working on the frontlines during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Christopher Johnson and Glenn Rossney of The Misty Falls Motion Picture Company assisted in this endeavor.

Photographer Mariana Tosca shares, "Throughout the pandemic, the collective nursing and frontline worker community has served with unparalleled courage and an unflinching commitment to duty. I wanted to offer my skills in gratitude and recognition of theirs. While the exchange of energy isn't commensurate with their sacrifice and risk, the gesture was meant to remind them that they are deeply valued and appreciated, and that what they've done in the face of an unprecedented global disaster has made all the difference."

She continues, "These remarkable people have put their lives on the line every day, under the most perilous circumstances, to save others. I wanted to take them off of the frontlines for a little while to celebrate their efforts and make them feel like the superstars that they are."

Filmmaker Christopher Johnson adds, "Imagine what it must take for someone to help people during a crisis when that very act of compassion could cost them their lives. It's daunting to consider. I have profound respect for these extraordinary people, so I am very happy to have helped showcase their stories, let them know we care, and tell them firsthand that we're grateful for all they've done and continue to do."

The ZEOx1™ packaging technology is commercially scalable to produce millions of doses per day; a critically important requirement for rapid, cost effective deployment of vaccines and medical countermeasures to global populations.

Kalyagen Announces Attendance at the Fort Lauderdale Open with PGA Associate Jerrel Gill

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Kalyagen® is pleased to announce that it will be attending the Fort Lauderdale Open as part of its sponsorship of golf professional Jerrel Gill. The Open will be hosted at the Fort Lauderdale Country Club on May 2-3, 2022. Kalyagen is also a supporting partner for two upcoming South Florida PGA Section events, the South Florida PGA Foundation HOPE Classic on May 12, 2022 and the South Florida Open on June 21-23, 2022.

"I'm pleased to introduce Kalyagen to the Fort Lauderdale Open and the South Florida PGA and the PGA Hope program benefiting veterans like myself and some of my team members," said Desmond Dogan, Director of Sales at Kalyagen®. "As a former golf professional and club pro, I understand the grind that is associated with practicing, playing, teaching, running the pro shop and more. That's why I'm pleased that Kalyagen is sponsoring Jerrel Gill, presently a Class B-13 PGA Associate. Jerrel will be playing in both the Fort Lauderdale Open and the Hope Classic and will attempt to qualify for the South Florida Open."

STEMREGEN® is a unique and patent-pending blend of proprietary plant-based extracts documented to increase the number of circulating stem cells by stimulating Endogenous Stem Cell Mobilization (ESCM). Ingredients in STEMREGEN® have been investigated in more than eight studies for their effect on stem cell function, of which five were randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled human clinical trials. STEMREGEN® has wide application in antiaging and overall health maintenance.

"Despite my local success, I am determined to improve my game and consistently compete against the best PGA Professionals," said Jerrel Gil, PGA professional golfer. "I have been fortunate enough to partner with Kalyagen and use its stem cell enhancement supplement STEMREGEN to assist me to contend in the South Florida PGA Section and hopefully on the PGA Tour.

"We are delighted to partner with Jerrel and the South Florida PGA Section," said Kalyagen® founder and CEO Christian Drapeau. "The link between a lower number of circulating stem cells and the development of age-related diseases and lack of recovery has been well studied. From a therapeutic standpoint, increasing the number of circulating stem cells has been documented to enhance tissue repair and improve the course of disease formation in many degenerative conditions and overall health and well-being. We have already begun to see improvement in Jerrel's training and recovery efforts and look forward to continuing to assist his golf career with the benefits of STEMREGEN on his team."

The Spodak Group Offers Free Wellness Scans: The Group continues to provide comprehensive care for their family of patients

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Spodak Dental Group team of dental professionals now offers free digital wellness scans in a continued effort to provide the very best comprehensive care to their family of patients.

"Offering free digital wellness scans is a tremendous value we offer our patients because it provides us a deeper understanding of their oral and overall health, which allows us to render a greater scope of care," said Dr. Craig Spodak, general dentist at Spodak Dental Group. "There is a great link between oral health and systemic health, and our team of general and specialty dentists has a great opportunity to help our family of patients maintain and achieve optimum health."

The mouth is the gateway to the body and a direct link to systemic health. Without proper cleaning and regular maintenance, bacteria in the mouth can lead to oral infection, such as tooth decay and gum infections. These infections, if left untreated, can cause various diseases and conditions including cardiovascular disease, endocarditis, pregnancy issues, and pneumonia. Patients who suffer from diabetes, AIDS/HIV, osteoporosis and Alzheimer's disease also have a greater chance of oral issues due to complications from these conditions.

The Spodak Dental Group team is proud to offer all current and future patients a free digital wellness scan, which takes less than five minutes and is painless. The scan will show doctors any current concerns, including recession, chipping/wearing of teeth, malocclusion, signs of oral cancer, tooth erosion and more, so they can best address any issues. The scan will also be used to track differences in oral health over time, which is helpful as patients experience lifestyle and health changes.

The use of state-of-the-art digital technology falls in line with the Group's commitment to provide their patients with the most up-to-date systems and dental offerings available, with a goal to offer an unparalleled dental and human experience.

The Spodak Dental Group, 2017 Inc. 5000 honoree, has evolved to become South Florida's premier, comprehensive dental facility, and comprises a world-class association of dental professionals poised to provide full-service dental care second-to-none in both scope and skill. The Spodak Dental Group team includes General and Restorative Dentists, Endodontists, Periodontists, Board Certified Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, Master Ceramic Artists and Anesthesiologists, as well as one of the nation's only in-office dental labs.

Spodak Dental Group is located at 3911 W. Atlantic Ave. Call or text (561) 303-2413 or visit https://www.SpodakDental.com/ for more information or to schedule an appointment.

Oral Vaccine Boosts COVID Immunity: study conducted on nonhuman primates is published in the journal Vaccine

ROCHESTER, Minn. /ScoopCloud/ -- Vyriad, Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing oncolytic virus therapies to treat a wide range of cancers, today announced results confirming the activity of an oral vaccine formulation for boosting immunity against SARS-CoV-2. The full study conducted on nonhuman primates is published in the journal Vaccine accessible at http: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0264410X21016716

The article describes the evaluation of an oral COVID-19 vaccine built on the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) platform. Oral administration of the VSV based vaccine induced antibodies that could neutralize SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. More importantly, the novel oral formulation powerfully boosted the levels of neutralizing antibodies against SARS-COV-2 in previously vaccinated monkeys. The oral vaccine was shown to be safe and did not cause clinically significant adverse effects.

"By tweaking the way we generate the VSV-SARS vaccine, we created a new oral formulation that worked remarkably well to boost virus neutralizing antibody titers when administered into the cheek pouches of cynomolgus macaques whose immunity was waning after they had been primed with an intramuscular vaccine," stated Kah-Whye Peng, Ph.D., Chief Technical Officer of Vyriad, and first author of this publication. "Oral dosing is convenient and more likely to be accepted by people who are reluctant to receive yet another intramuscular injection to boost their immunity."

The COVID-19 pandemic is not over and there is a continued need to deliver vaccines to a much of the world's population. An effective oral vaccine/booster has the potential to dramatically improve vaccine uptake rates by addressing some of the key barriers to effective deployment such as logistics of distribution to remote populations, fear of needles, and administration to young children.

"We are excited by these groundbreaking findings. Vyriad has cGMP manufacturing capabilities and is running clinical trials using an engineered VSV for cancer therapy. We are therefore actively seeking partnership to help bring this promising platform to human testing," stated Stephen J Russell, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Vyriad.

The publication is a collaboration between researchers at Vyriad, Imanis Life Sciences, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, and the University of Minnesota.

About Vyriad, Inc.

Vyriad is a clinical-stage company developing virus-based therapeutics, focusing initially on proprietary oncolytic virus therapies for the treatment of cancers with significant unmet needs. Founded by scientists at Mayo Clinic and the University of Miami, Vyriad is working with VSV, measles and picornavirus platforms, programming their viruses to selectively attack cancer cells, thereby igniting antitumor immune responses that can complete the process of tumor destruction and prevent disease recurrence.

Our lead platform, derived from vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), is being evaluated in ongoing Phase 1-2 clinical trials addressing multiple cancer types. Vyriad and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: REGN) have a well-established broad-based strategic agreement for the discovery and development of new oncolytic virus treatments for cancer leveraging Vyriad's VSV platform and Regeneron's PD-1 inhibitor Libtayo® (cemiplimab-rwic) as well as its unmatched antibody discovery capabilities. Vyriad is a privately held company based in Rochester, Minnesota.

Myrio Therapeutics and Pure MHC, LLC Announce Research Collaboration to Develop Novel, Targeted Antibody-Based Cancer Therapies

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Pure MHC, LLC and Myrio Therapeutics Pty Ltd (Myrio) today announced a collaboration to develop new antibody-based oncology therapeutics. The companies will combine Pure MHC's proprietary offering of MHC peptide targets for oncology with Myrio's revolutionary Retained Display(tm) (ReD) antibody discovery process to initially create up to three novel therapies based on targets distinct to tumors across multiple types of cancer.

The cancer therapies resulting from this collaboration will represent a unique synergism: Myrio's ReD platform is differentiated in its ability to routinely identify antibodies that bind to peptides from intracellular proteins presented on the cell surface by major histocompatibility complex (MHC), and Pure MHC is a world-leader in the identification and validation of peptide/MHC (pMHC) targets. Antibodies to next generation pMHC oncology targets may provide more efficacious therapies, particularly for solid tumors, while minimizing off-target effects for patients.

Researchers at both companies expressed excitement at the prospect of combining these innovative approaches:

"The speed and flexibility of Myrio's ReD platform enables the generation of robust antibody-based therapies against challenging targets like pMHC with high affinity and specificity," said Myrio's CEO Pete Smith. "Pure MHC's curated pMHC targets are an excellent fit for our platform and substantially de-risk downstream development."

Pure MHC's Chief Scientist, William Hildebrand, PhD shared this enthusiasm, "Pure MHC is dedicated to the identification of pMHC complexes distinct to cancer and absent from healthy tissues. Peptide/MHC complexes for several oncology indications have been identified by Pure MHC as present on tumors yet absent from healthy tissue, and we are excited for Myrio to deploy their cutting-edge technology to engineer antibodies that recognize our targets with great specificity."

From a business perspective, these therapeutic candidates will bolster Myrio's existing portfolio of in-house assets while providing Pure MHC access to a powerful antibody platform that enables multiple therapeutic pipelines.

"Myrio's platform is not just an outstanding scientific fit, the collaboration represents a unique and exciting way for Pure MHC to deploy its novel target assets strategically," said Kris Looney, President of Pure MHC. "As we continue to provide targets from our pipeline to the market via more traditional partner licensing models, we felt the time was right to also establish our own therapeutic pipeline and have found exactly the collaborator we need in Myrio."

Pete Smith agreed, "With the close alignment of both scientific and business objectives between our two companies, a partnership between Myrio and Pure MHC just makes so much sense. We are excited about its potential."

The companies expect the collaboration to yield therapeutic candidates within the next twelve months.
