Origin of the Company Logo
From a Patient Thinking Perspective
Asklepios was a great physician and the god of medicine in Greek mythology. In Latin, he is known as Aesculapius, with variations in spelling depending on transliteration. Another name for the god of medicine is Paeon in Greek mythology.
He is said to have revived the dead with his exceptional medical skills and was later deified. Today, he is still regarded as a symbol of medicine. His portrait appeared on former Greek 10,000 drachma banknotes issued until the introduction of the euro.
Rod of Asclepius
The motif of a snake coiled around a staff, known as the 'Rod of Asclepius,' is a widely recognized medical symbol, appearing in the WHO logo and the emblem of emergency medical services in the United States.
Company Logo Thoughts
Patients with advanced cancer live in constant fear of recurrence or metastasis. We are committed to developing therapies while staying close to patients and their families.
We understand that patients are under a great deal of stress in their fight against cancer. Our logo is inspired by the staff of the Greek god of medicine. A symbolic serpent, representing divine healing, is wrapped around the staff. We hope this design brings a sense of reassurance to our patients.
Our platform technology, AMDC, is also named after Cupid and Psyche, figures from Greek mythology.
