discussions, and share comments in a spirit of education and innovation.
Pleased with this announcement, Dr. Mark Wainberg noted the important contribution of the Scientific Committee in the
conceptualization of viroXchange. " viroXchange broadens access to information by researchers
in general, while allowing them to share their knowledge on a global scale. It's important for the scientific community to be aware
of the latest trials and of their impact on research priorities and scenarios. In this context, viroXchange allows us to better
collaborate".
Dr. Réjean Thomas adds: "The new viroXchange digital platform allows clinicians to access the latest data and, more
importantly, to take notice of the opinions of numerous experts, here and around the world, and of the impact of such data on their
clinical practices. Thus, we can optimize patient case management and discuss innovative strategies in patient treatment and
disease prevention".
Neuhauz' President and CEO, Guy-Charles Pelletier, rejoices at the possibility of developing and producing the viroXchange
digital media in Montréal. " We have the opportunity of working with talented creative local people. The creation of digital, interactive,
multiplatform content offers our young people an opportunity to develop and experiment with new media technologies and applications".
