Dr. Maniscalco of Nanobac:

Dr. Maniscalco has been repeatedly voted by physician peers as one of the "Best Doctors in America." He founded St. Joseph's Hospital Heart Institute in Tampa and is head of the internationally recognized Heartbeat International which donates life saving pacemakers in lesser developed countries. He was principle investigator in a study on a novel therapy for atherosclerosis.

Dr. Hector Gomez, M.D. PhD, will be special advisor to Dr. Maniscalco on drug and diagnostics development. He is a former Merck and Novartis research executive with extensive experience bringing therapies to market in FDA and European regulatory environments, and in supervising clinical trial work in other countries. He has successfully brought biotech companies public and currently heads an R&D company near Tampa.

"Dr. Maniscalco's and Dr. Gomez' combination of clinical treatment, medical innovation and drug development experience adds a needed dimension to the quest for an effective treatment for stone forming diseases," said John Stanton, CEO and Chairman. "This will enhance our focus on proving the effectiveness of drug combinations in ways that will meet new FDA drug and diagnostics standards."
