Athersys to Participate in The American Society for Neural Therapy and Repair Annual Conference

Athersys, Inc. (NASDAQ: ATHX), a regenerative medicine company developing MultiStem® (invimestrocel) cell therapy for critical care indications, announced today their participation in The American Society for Neural Therapy and Repair Annual Conference from April 27-30, 2023 in Clearwater, FL.

The American Society for Neural Therapy and Repair is a society of basic and clinical neuroscientists with a mission to better understand the way the nervous system functions and establish new procedures for its repair in response to trauma or neurodegenerative disease.

Dr. Sarah Busch, Vice President of Regenerative Medicine and Head of Business Development, has been invited to participate in this conference. On Friday, April 28th, she will be giving a talk in the morning titled “MultiStem® Cellular Therapy for Neurological Indications” during the Cell Therapies for Neural Repair session and will participate in a panel discussion later in the day titled, “Career Retention and Development of Female Neuroscientists.” On April 29th, Dr. Busch will be co-chairing the “Translating Treatments for Neural Injury & Disease” panel discussion.

“As a company with a broad pipeline focused on treatment of neurological indications, we are excited for the opportunity to share the progress we’ve made with MultiStem and engage with other experts in the field of neuroscience,” commented Dr. Busch. “We are enthusiastic about the potential for collaboration and knowledge exchange that this event offers as we continue to drive forward in our mission to extend and enhance the quality of human life."

About MultiStem®

MultiStem® (invimestrocel) cell therapy is a patented regenerative medicine product in clinical development that has shown the ability to promote tissue repair and healing in a variety of ways, such as through the production of therapeutic factors in response to signals of inflammation and tissue damage. MultiStem therapy’s potential for multidimensional therapeutic impact distinguishes it from traditional biopharmaceutical therapies focused on a single mechanism of benefit. The therapy represents a unique "off-the-shelf" stem cell product that can be manufactured in a scalable manner, may be stored for years in frozen form, and is administered without tissue matching or the need for immune suppression. Based upon its efficacy profile, its novel mechanisms of action, and a favorable and consistent tolerability demonstrated in clinical studies, we believe that MultiStem therapy could provide a meaningful benefit to patients, including those suffering from serious diseases and conditions with unmet medical need.
