MYND Life Sciences (MYND) entered into an agreement to acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of Tidal Psychedelics, a company with access to a $10M facility for cannabis and mushroom cultivation.
Diagnosing and measuring depression is usually very subjective, relying on data from patient questionnaires. This leaves room for bias and makes it difficult to know if a treatment is actually working.
MYND Diagnostics of MYND Life Sciences (MYND) developed a biomarker test that provides objective data to solve this problem. It measures inflammation in the brain, which may be what causes depression.
Seeing evidence of improvement gives patients hope in the treatment process, like showing them the “light at the end of the tunnel” as MYND’s CEO explained on a recent Daily Mushroom Podcast.
The company announced that Monash University will use the biomarker test in a psilocybin study on treatment-resistant depression, which has received $3M in funding from the Australian government.
MYND’s Second CRA focuses on Novel Therapies for Neurological Diseases of the Brain

“We are very excited to announce our second Collaborative Research Agreement focussing on diseases of the brain,” stated Dr. Lyle Oberg, MYND‘s Chief Executive Officer. “We have a unique opportunity to improve the wellness and quality of life of millions of people and families torn apart by the tragedy of dementia and other debilitating diseases of the Central Nervous System. The MYND management team has a wealth of scientific, clinical and operational experience, and is well networked within the pharmaceutical industry. The Psilocybin sector is rapidly transitioning to become a pharmaceutical industry and MYND holds a unique position within the sector in terms of building upon our unique intellectual property and a valuable portfolio of related patents”,”
The Company has a broad development pipeline, including advancing clinical programs, such as novel biomarkers for depression and MYND is expecting results from its pivotal trial to validate these biomarkers. Through its subsidiary MYND Diagnostics INC., this includes conducting an adaptive dose finding single phase 2b clinical trial funded by the Australian Government of the efficacy and safety of psilocybin assisted psychotherapy (“PAP”) in the treatment of people diagnosed with treatment resistant depression (“TRD”) in collaboration with clinical researchers at Monash University. Furthermore, MYND anticipates entering clinic trials with three additional programs in the course of 2022/2023. After progressing to clinical proof of concept, MYND will continue to have the option to enter into partnerships for late-stage development and commercialization.
“We are continuing to translate our innovative approaches, while maintaining our scientific excellence,” stated Dr. Wilfred Jefferies, Chief Science Officer at MYND. “We have unique technologies with differentiating potential and access to state-of-the-art facilities. This funding will allow us to accelerate our research dramatically leading to more rapid translation of our studies. This is a really exciting time for MYND and our team.”
DEPARTURE OF AN OFFICER OF THE COMPANY

VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 15, 2021 /CNW/ – MYND Life Sciences Inc. (“MYND” or the “Company“) (CSE: MYND) (OTC: MYNDF) is pleased to announce it has completed the National Phase filing of its Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) patent application, following on previously submitted provisional patent applications that describe: “A Method of Immune Modulation by Modulating a Specific Gene.”
“MYND’s is profoundly different than the majority of the Psychedelics’ sector. We are seeking intellectual property protection through the pursuit of patents by validation of our Intellectual Property through research and development,” stated Dr. Lyle Oberg, MD, CEO of MYND. “As this sector grows and matures and as MYND develops our novel drug development pipeline, the creation of a solid intellectual property portfolio is the key to creating lasting shareholder value. MYND’s ability to obtain patent protection will allow us to move towards the filing of Innovative New Drug (IND) application and approval status.”
According to the World Health Organization, over 300,000,000 people globally suffer from depression and other psychiatric disorders. Major Depressive Disorder and Treatment Resistant Depression have a greater than 50% chance of relapse using conventional methods of treatment. Traditional treatments focus solely on symptom suppression, not the root cause. Covid-19 has accelerated the ongoing mental health crisis around the world. In a June 2020 CDC survey, 31% of US respondents reported symptoms of anxiety or depression, 13% started/increased substance use, 26% reported stress-related symptoms, 11% reported serious thoughts of suicide in preceding 30 days. These numbers are double pre-pandemic levels.
The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) is an international treaty with more than 150 Contracting States. The PCT makes it possible to seek patent protection for an invention simultaneously in a large number of countries by filing a single “international” patent application instead of filing several separate national or regional patent applications. The granting of patents remains under the control of the national or regional patent offices in what is called the “national phase”. https://www.uspto.gov/patents/basics/international-protection/patent-cooperation-treaty

MYND Life Sciences (MYND) began research on its biomarker test that aids in diagnosing multiple sclerosis. There are currently no physical indicators or lab tests that can diagnose the condition.
The Company will be initiating a clinical validation study on the use of its proprietary biomarker testing in Alzheimer’s Disease diagnostics
VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 16, 2021 /CNW/ – MYND LIFE SCIENCES INC. (“MYND” or the “Company”) (CSE: MYND) (OTC: MYNDF) is pleased to announce its wholly-owned subsidiary MYND DIAGNOSTICS INC. (“MYND Diagnostics“) has commenced clinical research on a testing procedure for diagnosing and monitoring Alzheimer’s Disease (“AD“) utilizing the Company’s proprietary anti-inflammatory peptide (“MAP“) biomarker.
“Our research team has begun to research and explore the potential application of our proprietary MAP biomarker for use in the identification of Alzheimers disease”, stated Dr. Lyle Oberg, CEO of MYND. “The ability to make an early, accurate, dependable diagnosis in Alzheimer’s Disease patients thereby allowing for earlier intervention is a huge step forward in the fight against this terrible disease. We are extremely excited that the MAP biomarker has the potential to bridge that gap. The Company’s ultimate goal specific to diagnostics is to provide a cost-effective, easy to use diagnostic test kit that can be administered from anywhere with a dried blood spot. Helping families and health care practitioners with an effective tool for early diagnosis, monitoring and treatment for the millions impacted by this disease will be a significant innovation in central nervous system medicine”.
MYND Diagnostics will be initiating a clinical validation of the MAP biomarker in AD by collecting known blood samples of AD and quantifying the presence of MAP against control samples. This validation is planned to start in first quarter 2022. Pending those results, the Company anticipates that a submission for FDA approval could take place as early as second half 2022 to prepare for commercialization and making the MAP Biomarker available to the public through healthcare practitioners. The Company’s goal is to develop diagnostic test to monitor and potentially diagnose inflammatory diseases of the central nervous system such as Alzheimer’s Disease. The Company’s diagnostic test is intended to give health care providers an objective monitoring tool to improve patient outcomes by providing more tailored and efficacious treatments.
Approximately 44 million people worldwide live with AD or a related form of dementia.1 It is the sixth-leading cause of death in the U.S., killing more people than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined.2 Only approximately one in four people with the disease get diagnosed.3 Further, the Alzheimer’s disease diagnostics and therapeutics market was valued at USD 6.6 billion in 2020, and it is expected to reach approximately USD 9 billion in 2026, registering a CAGR of nearly 5.36% during the forecast period, 2021-2026.4

Focused on generating data through proprietary biomarkers and diagnostic testing of inflammation
VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 9, 2021 /CNW/ – MYND LIFE SCIENCES INC. (“MYND” or the “Company”) (CSE: MYND) (OTC: MYNDF) is pleased to announce its wholly-owned subsidiary MYND DIAGNOSTICS INC. (“MYND Diagnostics“) has executed a binding letter of intent (“LOI“) with REVITALIST LIFESTYLE AND WELLNESS LTD. (“Revitalist“) (CSE:CALM) (OTC:RVLWF) (FSE: 4DO) to enter into a clinical research collaboration studying a link between diagnostic results and improved patient outcomes using MYND Diagnostics’ proprietary anti-inflammatory peptide (“MAP“) biomarker. The MAP diagnostic is intended to give health care providers an objective monitoring tool to detect and diagnose mental illness more accurately than the current diagnostic methodology, which can be very subjective. If successful, this biomarker test has the potential to lead to earlier diagnosis of mental illness and ongoing treatment decisions with the goal of improving patient outcomes by providing more tailored and efficacious treatments.
The goal of the collaboration with Revitalist is to utilize their broad network of clinics with patients suffering from mental illness to commence clinical trials to demonstrate MAP’s ability to diagnose and monitor mental health in order to gain approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA“). The parties anticipate that initial clinical trial will be focused on patients with mental health issues who had previously been infected with COVID-19 and are seeking medical help for post COVID-19 mental health symptoms (“Brain Fog“). The World Health Organization reports that COVID-19 has affected more than 249 million individuals1. Research indicates that approximately 50% on average of those with COVID-19 have reported having lasting effects2. Revitalist has a network of over 2,300 patients through its multiple clinics in the United States, with many of those patients having been previously infected with COVID-19 and seeking specialized treatments to deal with Brain Fog and other lasting effects.
Dr. Lyle Oberg, MD, CEO of MYND stated “A critical step in diagnostics development is demonstrating that an investigational tool produces consistent results. With the new collaboration we intend to design next phase clinical validation studies and take blood samples from existing patients at Revitalist with an expectation that we will submit the MYND biomarker (MAP) data to the FDA for approval in Q2 of 2022. The Company anticipates generating near-term revenue through research and development projects related to MAP. Ultimately, MYND intends to work with physicians to adopt MAP in their practices and provide access to patients and insurance providers for reimbursement when utilizing our proprietary diagnostic. We anticipate that working with Revitalist will be our first of many mental health studies. Their comprehensive network of patients and expert providers will provide the MYND Diagnostics team with optimal research conditions to study MAP in patients so dearly needing better diagnostic and treatment options.”
Kathryn Walker, CEO of Revitalist stated “We are excited to be working with MYND Diagnostics to potentially diagnose and monitor mental health using MAP. Prior to MAP the only diagnostic for mental health was an interview with the patient regarding their history of symptoms, which of course can be very subjective. A diagnostic tool such as MAP would allow for a more objective diagnosis and monitoring, hopefully resulting in a higher level of care and treatments for our patients. One size doesn’t fit all with mental health and treatments that work for some may not work for others. Utilizing MAP would allow us to quickly adjust treatments to better address patient specific mental health issues.”
