Foamix Executive Director Dr. Stanley Hirsch
to Present “Foamix - Innovative Delivery in Dermatology”
at Bio-Europe 2005, November 8th at 8:30 a.m.
Ness Ziona, Israel, November 3, 2005 --- Foamix Ltd. announced today that company’s executive director, Dr. Stanley Hirsch, will speak at Bio–Europe 2005, at the International Congress Center in Dresden, Germany, on November 8th at 8:30 a.m. in Room #5, Level 4. Dr. Hirsch’s presentation,
Foamix - Innovative Delivery in Dermatology, is part of the delivery section of the program.
“Foamix is changing the face of dermatology. Foam offers the most convenient, easily applied, non-irritating way of effectively treating skin ailments. In addition, Foamix foams are able to deliver just about any active, and in comparably higher concentrations. And, it appears that pharma has taken note. In the last six months, we have signed agreements with three major international pharmaceutical companies to develop new foam products. One of these companies is Stiefel Laboratories, with whom we are developing a foam drug for scabies. We also found tremendous support of our R&D efforts at the recent October 2005 meeting of the European Academy of Dermatology,” said Dr. Hirsch.
“I am looking forward to demonstrating the benefits of the Foamix product line at Bio-Europe 2005 and to opening dialogues with companies interested in pursuing a mutually lucrative opportunity,” Dr. Hirsch added.
