10/28/2021
Located at 431 Aviation Way, the 48,000 square-foot R&D facility is fully-operational with a team of scientists and technicians on hand to further Tonix’s portfolio of infectious disease treatments. According to company officials, the RDC is expected to support the Company’s expanding infectious disease pipeline.
“We at Tonix are excited to achieve this significant milestone in our efforts toward supporting and growing our pipeline of vaccines and antiviral therapeutics,” stated Dr. Seth Lederman, M.D., President and CEO of Tonix “We believe that this strategy will enable Tonix to develop vaccines and therapeutics to address the current COVID-19 pandemic, and to be prepared to efficiently combat potential novel or emerging pathogens, termed ‘Disease X’, that could impact society in the future.
Tonix is developing live vaccines and antiviral drugs to protect against COVID-19 and its variants, smallpox, and monkeypox; treatments for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder; medical countermeasures; and diagnostics for other diseases. In addition to its Maryland location, the company has operations in Massachusetts and soon to be Montana.
“The life sciences are incredibly important to us in Maryland. It is one of our strongest industry sectors, and a major source of jobs and economic power for our residents,” said Maryland Commerce Secretary Kelly M. Schulz. “On behalf of the state of Maryland, congratulations and welcome to the entire Tonix team. We are thrilled to have you in Maryland and thrilled that you’ll be continuing your important work in our state.”
