BioSig Technologies (OTCQB: BSGM) shares rose 10% after the company signed a 10-year strategic agreement with Mayo Clinic and Mayo Clinic Ventures. The new agreement expands upon the work realized under the Advanced Clinical Research Program that was signed with Mayo Clinic in March 2016. The company intends to work closely with leading Mayo electrophysiologists Drs. Samuel Asirvatham and K. L. Venkatachalam to develop advanced clinical features and applications for its PURE EP System, in addition to leveraging its experience in physiologic signal processing to develop future technologies. Mayo is expected to contribute knowledge, intellectual property and clinical support to the partnership. The company expects joint patent filings to come out of the relationship. “Our experience working with Drs. Asirvatham and Venkatachalam has been outstanding and has resulted in three peer reviewed publications to-date. Adding innovation and intellectual property to the equation should raise this collaboration to a whole new level, likely resulting in better diagnosis and treatment of complex arrhythmias in many patients,” president and CEO Greg Cash stated in the news release.
