At Avid, a wholly owned subsidiary of Eli Lilly and Company, our mission is to develop new molecular imaging agents capable o ... f changing the medical management of significant chronic human diseases. We have assembled an outstanding management team with extensive imaging and CNS development experience to help make pre-symptomatic disease detection a reality. Avid's pipeline of imaging compounds has the potential to dramatically alter the clinical course of challenging conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, Dementia with Lewy Bodies, Parkinson's disease and Diabetes Mellitus. This may be possible because our molecular imaging compounds may be able to detect the first stages of pathological change; allowing early treatment and management of people at risk - perhaps before before symptoms of disease can develop. read more
