BioMedNewsBreaks – IGC Pharma Inc. (NYSE American: IGC) Adds AI Expert to Support Development of Phase 2 Clinical Trial

IGC Pharma (NYSE American: IGC), a company focused on developing innovative solutions to address Alzheimer’s disease, has announced the addition of Pablo Arbelaez, Ph.D., an expert in artificial intelligence (“AI”) and one of the world’s top researchers. Dr. Arbelaez will support the development of the Phase 2 clinical trial of IGC Pharma’s lead therapeutic candidate IGC-AD1, targeting agitation in Alzheimer’s. “We welcome Dr. Pablo Arbelaez to our team of senior advisors. His expertise in AI will aid in enhancing early detection methods for Alzheimer’s disease and subsequently aiding faster diagnoses, which is essential for effective treatment,” said Ram Mukunda, CEO of IGC Pharma. “According to the Alzheimer’s Association, up to 50% of people with Alzheimer’s or a similar form of dementia do not receive a formal diagnosis. By integrating AI algorithms into the screening process to analyze clinical trials and other data, and with the help of Dr. Arbelaez, the company aims to reduce the risk of false negatives in the early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.”
