CAMBRIDGE, Mass.

InVivo Therapeutics Holdings Corp. (NVIV) announced today that InVivo’s Director of Research Richard Layer, Ph.D., has been invited to speak at the Joint Symposium of the 4th International Neural Regeneration Symposium (INRS2014), 9th Asia Pacific Symposium on Neural Regeneration (APSNR2014), and 6th International Spinal Cord Injury Treatment and Trials Symposium (ISCITT2014), to be held September 6-8, 2014 in Nanjing, China (website: http://www.inrs-nrr.org/CN/model/index_en.shtml).

“It is a great honor to be invited to speak at this international symposium,” Dr. Layer said. “InVivo is a leader in the field, and I look forward to presenting the company’s approach to development and translation of new treatments for spinal cord injury to my international colleagues.” The goal of the Joint Symposium is to provide an international platform for presenting new discoveries, to exchange new ideas, to stimulate new collaborations, to promote translation from basic science to the clinic, and to educate professionals in the field of neural regeneration.

Dr. Layer will present an overview of the company’s biomaterials technology platform, including its degradable polymer Neuro-Spinal Scaffold. Recently, following approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), InVivo Therapeutics initiated a clinical study of its Neuro-Spinal Scaffold. This study is intended to capture preliminary safety and effectiveness data of the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold in up to five human subjects with acute thoracic spinal cord injury.
