NanoBio and
Advanced Photonix. Both Ann Arbor-based companies have recently landed significant contracts.
NanoBio has been awarded $2.4 million from the State of Michigan 21st Century Jobs Fund, which will be used to develop a drug in the company's pipeline for treatment of fungal infections in finger- and toenails. The company is also working to develop tratments for cold sores and
MRSA as well as vaccines for the flu and hepatitis B.
