More on VLG Pharmaceutical

VLG Pharmaceutical is very strict about not allowing their name to be used in promotional materials, hence the 'psuedo-name' used on this site.

They will also not allow us to name or display images of the project, as it is considered very proprietary within the company.

We are currently negotiating what we can represent, but thus far, this is it.
