He then moved to Charleston, South Carolina to join the MUSC Medical Scientist Training Program. Tyler completed a Ph.D. in Drug Discovery, focusing on neuroimmunology and pharmacokinetic optimization of peptides and small molecules. He co-invented two drug products, one of which was licensed to Titan Pharmaceuticals. He is the co-founder of MitRx Therapeutics, a start-up pharmaceutical company.
