Join Jay Hennock, CEO of Novapep, as he unveils the company’s mission to address unmet medical needs through peptide-based therapies.
Novapep, an Australian/US biotech, has developed a patented peptide structure called biparediteTM as an oral inflammatory bowel disease therapy, which will be a cost effective first-in-class drug.
