Nanotech Delivery Request: A Corporate Presentation from Merck Research Laboratories

Abstract:
Representatives from Merck will make a special presentation to researchers and scientists in universities and companies at the Nanotech 2007 conference on May 23, 2007 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in California.

Merck recently acquired Sirna Therapeutics, a leader in efforts to create RNAi-based therapeutics that could significantly alter the treatment of disease. RNAi-based therapeutics selectively catalyze the destruction of the RNA transcribed from an individual gene enabling an novel approach to discovering drugs with the potential to produce highly specific, potent, and long-lasting effects.
