The company is actively pursuing other opportunities (pre-clinical and clinical stage) to collaborate on:

Eventually, the MSL team will contribute to pre-launch and launch efforts.


The company offers a culture of innovation, collaboration and empowerment. While well-funded and diversified, it has the vibe of a start-up in which all parties work together to achieve a shared mission.


This MSL will work directly with the leaders of the company including the inventor of the drug (the CTO) and the Chief Medical Officer to advance the company’s mission.


We seek candidates who thrive in a start-up setting and bring the “can-do” resolve needed to overcome any obstacles.


Territories are still being defined. Preference for those coming from Midwest or Southeast. Northeast territory is already filled.
