Neuronoff Gets $2.2M Grant

Valencia-based medical device developer Neuronoff says it has received $2.2M in a National Institutions of Health (NIH), to go towards its medical device, a injectable metal electrode for treating chronic back pain. According to Neuronoff, the company's implant specifically helps to combat opioid abuse, by offering up an alternative treatment to chronic back pain. Neuronoff says the grant will focus on testing its product at the dorsal root ganglion, part of the spinal nerve, and stimulating this target to alleviate pain and reduce dependence on opioids, and is part of the NIH's Helping to End Addiction Long-Term (HEAL) initiative.
