Why “Amphista”?
Amphista is named for a mythical twin-headed being from Greek mythology called Amphisbaena that was said to possess many health-giving properties; this mythical creature evokes the bi-functional nature of Amphista’s novel molecules.
In ancient times, Amphisbaena played many roles in healthcare, from promoting fertility to “curing” ailments ranging from the common cold to arthritis.
Taking a somewhat more scientific approach, Amphista is building on this same spirit to develop advanced TPD therapies able to address a wide range of needs in global health.
