Key Pharma Diagnostics and Life Sciences Industry Expertise Added to Board of Directors of Modern Mobility Aids, Inc. (MDRM.OB)

TORONTO, Oct. 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Modern Mobility Aids, Inc. (OTC BB: MDRM) (the "Company"), headquartered in Nevada, USA, is adding Darshna Tanna to its Board of Directors. Ms. Tanna's appointment follows the recent announcement of Mr. Ferman Naqvi's, CA, appointment to the Board.  Ms. Tanna's extensive global work experience will help to build the Company's competitive growth in North American and International markets based on her demonstrated track record of generating outstanding business results in diverse cultural and organizational settings worldwide.

Ms. Tanna is currently the Asia-Pacific Regional Director of BioMerieux, a global leader in the field of in-vitro diagnostics. Directly involved in key accounts, new product development as well as management and communications with a network of distributors, she also plays an instrumental role in creating the efficient, highly skilled and motivated team of business managers to build the business in local markets and to grow top-line revenues.

In the past, Ms. Tanna also occupied senior managerial and account positions at Organon Teknika (North America), a biopharmaceutical company engaging in the manufacturing and marketing of prescription medicines primarily in the areas of gynecology, fertility, neuroscience, and anesthesia.  

Commenting on the Company's business evolution, which focuses on the increasing demand from the global pharmaceutical and life sciences industries for innovative delivery and packaging formats, Ms. Tanna remarks, "Developing alternative health care solutions to broaden drug delivery and device packaging options will help to prolong the commercial life of patented medications. For example, moving from a pill to a metered-dose, injectable format or a transdermal patch or an inhaler."  

Mohamed K. Karatella, President and CEO of Modern Mobility Aids, Inc. adds, "Instead of just focusing on commodity manufacturing capacity, such value-added innovation for existing products marketed by larger pharmaceutical firms will sustain our competitive differentiation. We are excited to have Ms. Tanna on board and are certain her vision and experience will accelerate our foray into new markets."
