Our vision is to employ new dual-acting retinoic acid receptor modulators (RAR-M) as the basis for developing a new rational effective treatment approach for ALS and meet that unmet need. In the longer term, we see a great opportunity to use our IP from the ALS arena to move on to target the wider range of neurodegenerative diseases.
