(Dermaliq), a private biopharmaceutical company with therapeutic focus on dermatology, today announces the formation of a Scientific and Medical Advisory Board composed of internationally recognized experts in dermatology, Gordon Dow (San Francisco, US,), Xavier Yon (Paris, France), Michael Kuligowski, MD, PhD (Chads Ford, US) and R. Todd Plott, MD (Dallas/Fort Worth, US).

Mr. Dow has been named Chairman of the Advisory board.

Frank Loescher, PhD, CEO Dermaliq, said, “we are pleased to welcome four highly respected members to our Scientific and Medical Advisory Board as we now advance three programs into the clinic: DLQ01 (Androgenetic Alopecia), DLQ02 (Psoriasis) and DLQ03 (Bacterial Skin and Soft Tissue Infections). The vast clinical and research expertise in dermatology of this group is invaluable for shaping Dermaliq’s current and future product development strategy.

Dr. Kuligowski stated “Better and more effective topical products are needed to serve the needs of patients and practicing physicians.
