Developing a New Lupus Therapy

Dear Sophie,
I hope this message finds you well. I am actually a 3rd year medical student on the east coast and am starting up a biotech company that is developing, among many things, a new therapy for Lupus. My business partners and I noticed that you were mentioned on the Wikipedia site as someone who supports Lupus related work and thought it would be great to reach out to you as someone who would be excited about our work.
We are working with a form of light therapy that actually delivers specific wavelengths of light that are not sensitive for lupus patients. It has been shown to treat the systemic illness through a variety of light specific biological pathways. It's been used in humans and gone through several human trials and we are actually going to be redoing the research with a new device and getting FDA approval. We are hoping to commence human clinical trials within the next few months.
We have been trying to garner support from as many people as possible including the Alliance for Lupus Research and Woody Johnson. We met with Mr. Johnson back in August at a lupus fundraiser and have gained tremendous support for our technology.
I just gave a two-hour seminar on the therapy and what we're doing at my medical school this past week and really turned some heads. So we are very close to getting the whole thing off the ground.
We would really be excited if you could take the time to visit our webiste and take a look. We are in the process of redoing the site so not all info is on there, but our contact info is and I have a lot of great information I could forward your way should you be interested.
Thanks so much for providing avenues for people to reach out to you and I hope you will contact us in the near future. Thanks and take care.

Sincerely,
