Brain Cell Protection
Quincy Bioscience is a biotechnology company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel technologies to address cognitive issues in neurodegenerative diseases and other age-related aspects of aging and memory loss. The company's products focus on alleviating the consequences of impaired calcium homeostasis - the imbalance of calcium ions commonly thought to be related to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and dementia, as well as normal age-related memory loss. Quincy Bioscience is set apart by its cutting-edge applications of the jellyfish calcium-binding protein apoaequorin, which is breaking new ground in protecting brain cells against neuronal degeneration.
Preventing the Loss of Memory
Quincy Bioscience is dedicated to brain health on several fronts. In addition to our pharmaceutical aspirations we have developed a novel dietary supplement using our patented technology. Our first supplement, Prevagen®, is now available nationwide in health food stores and Rite-Aid Pharmacies. The only supplement from a jellyfish, Prevagen keeps brain cells alive longer.* Research shows a 50% reduction in cellular death when treated with the jellyfish calcium-binding protein. Human trials have also indicated improvements in memory, focus and concentration. Prevagen was developed by Quincy Bioscience and is the first supplement to address aging through the restoration of calcium-binding proteins.

Neurodegeneration and Memory Loss
Quincy Bioscience looks to address the loss of memory, neurodegenerative diseases and overall brain health within the human brain through the restoration of calcium-binding proteins. Quincy Bioscience anticipates that the development of this calcium-regulating technology will help normal age-related memory loss and bring promising therapeutics for neurodegenerative conditions.
