Biography of Barry Greenberg, PhD

Barry Greenberg is an Associate Professor in the Department of Neurology and Director of the Alzheimer's Disease Translational Center at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Dr. Greenberg has been involved in Alzheimer's disease ("AD") research and drug discovery since 1985, holding a series of positions internationally in the US, Sweden and Canada. He was part of a drug discovery team at AstraZeneca leading over 50 individuals from eight departments. He later led the preclinical biology research program at Neurochem, Inc. in Québec as Senior Director of Pharmacology. Dr. Greenberg moved to the University Health Network in Toronto in 2008, as Director of Neuroscience Drug Discovery and Development, where he was responsible for the conceptualization and leadership as Strategy Director of the Toronto Dementia Research Alliance, a collaborative alliance across five research institutes. Additionally, he served as Chair of the National Institute on Aging's international committee, which was charged with strategizing the future structure of the Alzheimer's Disease Research Center ("ADRC") network. Dr. Greenberg moved to Johns Hopkins in 2018 to lead the development of an AD Translational Center, with the objective of integrating basic and clinical research to enable the development of effective therapies that will delay or prevent AD at its earliest stages. He has been involved with the Johns Hopkins ADRC since that time, as a member of its Executive Committee and Co-Leader of its Research Education Component. He serves on several committees and advisory boards for NIA-funded initiatives focused on genetics, model development and clinical trials in AD, and is Editor-in-Chief of the journal "Alzheimer's & Dementia: Translational Research and Clinical Interventions."

About InMed's INM-901 for the potential treatment of Alzheimer's disease

INM-901 is a small molecule drug candidate being developed as a potential treatment of Alzheimer's disease. INM-901 demonstrates multiple pharmacological effects in preclinical studies including neuroprotective effects, an ability to extend the length of neurites which is important for brain cell-to-cell communication, as well as a reduction in neuroinflammation. These preclinical studies were conducted in well-characterized study models of Alzheimer's disease.
