Redefining Healing
Through Science
Passionate Pioneers
of Healing Innovations
Determined to make a difference in the world, our founder set out on a mission to develop the science behind better healing. Today, that same passion drives us forward—redefining healing and transforming lives through science, innovation, and unwavering commitment.



Empowering Physicians, Improving Outcomes, and Advancing Healthcare
We deeply value the physician-patient connection and its life-changing impact through healthy healing. Our pursuit is to enhance patient outcomes, empower physicians, and drive healthcare innovation through education, research, and cutting-edge product development.

Who We Are
From Garage Experiments to Lifesaving Innovation
The medical technology world is filled with stories of breakthrough innovation driven by big companies in fancy laboratories, but not at Next Science. Our story begins in Dr. Matthew (“Matt”) Myntti’s garage.
A materials science engineering Ph.D., Matt established himself as a research & development pioneer and industry expert while working at a large, global medical device company. Frustrated over the lack of treatments for the wildly common problem of bacterial infections leading to patient suffering, Matt started growing bacteria and experimenting in his garage in his free time. Surely he could use his science smarts (aka advanced knowledge of the principles of chemistry, molecular biology, and materials properties) to develop something – anything – to help.
And in 2012, Next Science was born. Matt took the leap out of corporate America, committed to tackling one of the leading causes of antimicrobial resistance, bacterial biofilms, in the name of helping people. 78 patents later, Matt continues to pour his heart and soul into serving others by continuing his personal war against bacteria & biofilm – a quest to prevent infection and treat inflammatory disease.
Matt is also thrilled to be able to park his car in the garage again.
