Item 4.01 Changes in Registrants Certifying Accountant.

(a) Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On September 14, 2006, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Pressure BioSciences, Inc. (the “Company”) terminated the appointment of Weinberg & Co. (“Weinberg”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.  

Weinberg's reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were the reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.

During the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and through the date hereof, there were no disagreements with Weinberg on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Weinberg, would have caused it to make reference thereto in its reports on the Company’s financial statements for such years.

During the Company’s fiscal years ended  December 31, 2005 and 2004 and through the date hereof, there were no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company requested that Weinberg furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter, dated September 15, 2006, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
 
(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

On September 14, 2006, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company engaged UHY LLP (“UHY”) to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

During the fiscal years ended  December 31, 2005 and 2004 and through the date hereof, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with UHY  with respect to any matters or events, including any matters or events set forth and described in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
