MENLO PARK, Calif., June 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- BioPharmX Corporation (NYSE American: BPMX), a specialty pharmaceutical company developing products for the dermatology market, has formed a Special Advisory Council of thought leaders from various disciplines to help the company embrace patient centricity in its products, pricing and market access considerations. The advisors, who bring decades of experience in fields beyond dermatology – ranging from regulatory pathways to market access and from infectious diseases to antibiotic resistance – will inform the company's efforts by providing the kind of strategic expertise needed to position BioPharmX as a leader in patient-centric dermatology.
