“Super Aspirin”

Nearly a thing of the past

Nearly a thing of the past

“Super Asprin” makes it’s mark.

John Gilmer has broken through the aspirin barrier to form this “Super Asprin”. He is now apparently in talks with Solvatrin Theraputics regarding developing the drug.

Solvatrin Theraputics are the company behind what has now been named as “Super Aspirin”, and are in talks with a number of multinational pharma companies.

Based in Cork, the company expects the super product to be “on the shelf” in the next two years. Regulatory approval pending, the sale are set to top €500m in the space of 8 years!

Dr John Gilmer has spent in excess of 10 years working on the “Super Aspirin” believes it will give you all the benefits of aspirin but not the gastro-intestinal bleeding side effect. In order to protect the intestine and stomach lining, Gilmer discovered that he could deactivate the aspirin and re-activate at a later stage by enzymes naturally present in the blood. Basically, the aspirin content content becomes active as soon as it reaches the bloodstream.

“Our research has shown the market demands a solution to the side effects of aspirin and our drug directly addresses this problem” says c0-founder Pat O’Flynn.

It appears that June is a good month for Research, Development and Pharmaceuticals – Gilmer’s 10 years hard work has finally paid off

New Jobs in Irish Nanoscience Research?

Nanoscience research institute CRANN is to create new jobs in Research & Development, leading research projects including cancer research and computer chips.

The majority of these seventeen newly created  positions are to be in the Institute of Molecular Medicine and TCD School of Medicine in conjunction with CRANN. This particular team will be aiming at nanomedical technology in the early diagnosis of cancer.

The remaining 5 positions are to be with Intel as CRANN focuses on developing computer chips for the next generation.
Professor John Boland, Director of CRANN says “Ireland is now globally recognised for it’s expertise in the area of nanoscience, as evidenced by the large amounts of non-exchequer funding we are winning through competitive international research projects.” He goes on to say “Research is a global competition and we need to contuinue to develop our knowledge base and expertise to make Ireland a true innovation centre”

The investment was seen as a “huge vote of confidence” by Professor Dermot Kelleher of TCD School of Medicine.

Unlocking Human Potential

Unlocking Human Potential

Welcome again to Myscience jobs.com on this fine glorious day.

Ireland is developing a reputation as a center of excellence  for science jobs in the areas of nanotechnology, R&D and Genetics

Nanotechnology  in particular has just recently come into focus lately with the news that in twenty years Humanity may achieve immortality.

“How so?” says you. Well, an American scientist Ray Kurtzweil, predicts that with the increasing pace of  Human understanding and the integration of new technologies such as genetics, computer science and nanotechnology, it may be possible for Human vital organs and neural systems to be replaced before they begin to degenerate thereby expanding and prolonging natural Human longevity by reversing the process of ageing.

Mr. Kurtzweil’s theories may not be so outlandish when you consider that the first heart and lung transplants were only performed in 1981- a mere 28 years ago. Previously this too had been consider in the realms of science fantasy.

Equally, the Human Genome project took only 13 years to complete, commenced in 1990 and completed in 2003, it had been expected to take far longer but advances in computing and related disciplines accelerated this to the point of shaving several years off the initially anticipated project duration.

The lesson; technology is only limited by our ability to wonder and  to create. For those who like to imagine then, science jobs offer potential;- perhaps even immortality?

Stay tuned to mysciencejobs.com for further news in the world of science and technology and for the best science jobs please visit Irelands best recruitment agency Jackie Brown Medical. We cant promise immortality but we can promise you NRF award winning service.
