Update Call

Greetings Rhizo Families,

As many of you know Dr Shawn Ritchie, the CEO and Chief Scientific Officer at Med-Life Discoveries recently passed away. This has naturally led to a time of adaptation in his absence while we mourn our loss and plan for the future of MLD.

We thought that families may have questions about what happens now and how the company intends to move ahead. For this call we will be joined by a member of the MLD Board of Directors, Craig Bell, who will provide the thoughts of the board on the future of the company. Following brief updates by Tara and Craig, we will open the call up to answer everyone’s questions. Those questions can either be asked directly using your camera/microphone, or if you are more comfortable you can type them into the chat box.

The zoom call will take place on October 19th, 2026, starting at 6 pm ET.

Registration is required for this event, so if you are interested in attending, please fill out the form below, including at a minimum an email address and name for the zoom invite. The meeting links will be secure, and only those registered will be able to attend. Registration will be open until 5pm ET on October 16th, 2026. A meeting invite will be sent out to everyone after that with instructions on how to join.

We look forward to talking with everyone soon.

Tara Smith
