Stroke Damage Control
Edvince is a research company aiming to develop and commercialize new methods for acute treatment of stroke.
Subarachnoid hemorrhage
Stroke caused by bursting blood vessel in the brain.
A mistake in the lab revealed that the addition of substances that would normally cause vasodilation instead had a potent vasoconstricting effect. A sample had acquired completely new properties. These new properties may be crucial for the damaging chain of events accompanying stroke progression. This discovery became the first step of a research journey ultimately culminating in the Edvince pipeline.

What is Stroke?
Cerebral infarction
Caused by blood clots which partially or completely obstruct the vessels that provide blood flow to the brain.
Cardiac arrest
When the heart stops, brain tissue will be starved of oxygen due to cessation of blood flow.
