Mydecine Innovations Group Named Among Business Worldwide Magazine's List of Top 20 Most Innovative Companies to Watch
Millions of people around the globe suffer from mental health and addiction issues, but there isn't a guaranteed "fix-all" pharmaceutical treatment available. Mydecine Innovations Group is at the cutting-edge of an exciting new trend that combines technology with natural ingredients, offering an innovative solution to an age-old problem.
Since its establishment in 2020, the company has wasted no time in its mission. Co-founders Joshua Bartch (CEO), Damon Michaels (COO) and Robert Roscow (CSO) are firm believers in the potential of psychedelic assisted psychotherapies, and are collaborating with leading educational establishments including Johns Hopkins University , Imperial College of London and the University of Alberta . Their key focus right now is on three core areas; Intellectual Property and R&D, Clinical Trials and Technology, and their aim is to demonstrate how compounds found in nature such as psilocybin can be improved for safe medical use.
Mydecine's focus to date has been on two key areas- Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) & Psychological Trauma in Veterans; and Nicotine Addiction. In the USA alone, approximately 7,300 veterans commit suicide every year - that's one every 72 minutes. Smoking is another big killer, attributed to 20% of deaths in America every year, and while millions of smokers want to quit, success rates hover at around 7%.
There's a growing movement based around the use of psychedelics (particularly "magic mushrooms") to treat addiction and trauma based mental illnesses, and Mydecine is at the forefront. In just over a year the company has bult up an impressive network of collaborators, with eight clinical trial sites and five sponsored research sites around the world to date.
Through their exclusive partnership with Applied Pharmaceutical Innovation, Mydecine has access to a cGMP certified pharmaceutical manufacturing facility and Health Canada Scheduled 1 Drugs and Substances Dealer's License, so the future of mental health and addiction treatments already looks much brighter.
