Following news from last week that it has completed the development phase for its Health-e-Connect system, a universal platform for remote monitoring of chronic disease, ALR Technologies (OTCBB: ALRT) said this morning that it has added new members to its Board of Directors.  The company also reported that board member and VP of Technology Jaroslav V. Tichy, PhD, will be retiring from those positions and now serve as a consultant to ALRT.  Tichy, who is now 71 years old, played a key role in the developmental stage of the technology.  With that stage completed, Tichy will retire from the full-time role, according to the news.

With the additions, it is discernible that the company has added a strong financial background with the addition of Ken Robulak and a strong clinical and medical administration lineage with Dr. Alfonso Salas.
