Edinburgh, United Kingdom, August 31, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Michael Roberts, founder and CEO of Synpromics, commented, “Since founding Synpromics in Scotland last year, we’ve been very impressed with Scottish Enterprise and in particular with the HGSU team. They've proven themselves to be very well-connected within the local life sciences community and they truly understand both the challenges and the opportunities facing a start-up company. They have also exhibited both the technical expertise and the global perspective to understand the enormous potential of Synpromics’s proven and proprietary technology. With our novel capabilities to optimize gene regulation in even the most complex conditions,” Dr. Roberts continued. “Synpromics is positioned to revolutionize numerous biotechnology-driven industries across the life science and green-tech sectors. We welcome Scottish Enterprise’s continued assistance in achieving these goals.”
