Biophan Technologies to Present Today at NanoCommerce 2003 Conference
Tuesday December 9, 7:22 am ET
CEO to Discuss Company's Significant Potential Markets for Nanomagnetic Thin-Film Coatings
ROCHESTER, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 9, 2003--Biophan Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: BIPH - News), an innovator, developer and marketer of cutting-edge advanced biomedical technologies, today announced that Michael Weiner, Chief Executive Officer, has been selected to speak at the NanoCommerce 2003 conference which commences today. Co-sponsored by the U.S. Department of Commerce, the two-day, Chicago-based conference is designed to provide a national platform for organizations to create or expand major commercial markets for cutting-edge technology, such as Biophan's portfolio of next-generation biomedical technologies.
Weiner's presentation will highlight emerging nanomagnetic technologies, their promising commercial applications in diagnostics and medical devices, and the highly articulated strategic plan Biophan is taking to develop the technology, including exciting new uses being announced at the conference.
"It is our firm opinion that the secondary application of this nanomagnetic particle technology can represent a major new area of opportunity for us--and may become one of the core drivers to our ongoing growth," stated Weiner. "MRI and other diagnostic imaging methods can be greatly improved by the use of contrast agents that preferentially bind to tissues of diagnostic interest, providing numerous substantial improvements. Nanomagnetic particles hold the promise of improved performance in terms of signal intensity and the use of multiple markers which, when fully monetized, can result in significant benefit to Biophan-and ultimately our shareholders," Weiner added.
