"I see this prestigious global recognition as a powerful market signal confirming our leadership in AI-driven Alzheimer's research. This achievement not only validates our proprietary technology but also underscores the caliber of the team driving our AI execution strategy against a field of global leaders".

"Crucially, this success is a direct outgrowth of our foundational work with MINT-AD, our proprietary deep-learning platform that integrates clinical, neuroimaging, genetics, lifestyle, cognitive, and genomic information. Because of MINT-AD, our proposed AHA platform is not theoretical; it's a rapid expansion of a validated technology and process. With the help of ADDI, this platform is poised to solve the industry's most critical bottleneck: data harmonization in Alzheimer's drug discovery." said Ram Mukunda, CEO of IGC Pharma.
