Tomas Hode

Co-Founder & Senior Fellow @ Immunophotonics, Inc.

About

I am passionate about innovation and problem solving, and as Co-Founder & Senior Fellow. I oversee all technical areas in the company, including non-clinical research, CMC, clinical development, intellectual property, due diligence, and long-term drug development strategies. I co-founded Immunophotonics, Inc., a privately owned clinical-stage biotech company, and our goal is to unlock the potential of the immune system with a new class of therapeutics that we are developing. Our lead asset, a proprietary polymer with unique physicochemical and immunological properties is intended to modulate the immune system for a range of applications, including: immuno-oncology, interventional-oncology, and infectious disease. Our first use of this breakthrough discovery is utilizing the polymer to transform a routine interventional-oncology procedure called tumor ablation into a systemic immunotherapy for cancer.#ablation #immunotherapy #entrepreneurship #leadership #innovation For more information: www.immunophotonics.com info@immunophotonics.com
