NORWOOD, MA | Posted on March 22nd, 2007

Herbert Stein, Apogee's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are extremely excited to have a leading dermatologist supporting the development of our PyraDerm™ intradermal drug delivery platform. His expertise in the structure of the skin, the treatment of skin diseases and his medical technology development experience will be invaluable as we work towards the commercialization of our delivery solutions for FDA regulated and non regulated applications."

Dr. Anderson has conceived and developed dermatologic surgery using selectively absorbed laser pulses, which is now the preferred basis for treatment of birthmarks, pigmented lesions, tattoos, hypertrichosis and other conditions. He has made many contributions to the understanding and development of laser-tissue interactions, tissue optics, photodynamic therapy, and optical diagnostics. Dr. Anderson received his undergraduate degree from MIT and his M.D. from Harvard Medical School.
