Dr. Baker worked closely with UM Tech Transfer specialists to patent hundreds of different formulations for his invention. In 2000, the lure of this amazing technology was powerful enough to draw Ann Arbor businessman and financier Mike Nold out of retirement and into the post of CFO at NanoBio Corporation, a start-up company that holds exclusive rights for licensing the nanoemulsion technology from the University of Michigan.
