advanced research and product development services, and Modulus, specialists in design, commercialization and

combination and we see Modulus, under the direction of Mir Imran – one of the industry’s brightest minds in medical
innovation – as a tremendous resource to bring to bear for our clients. At a time when bringing products to market
