Valo Health is a biotech company that is recreating the future of medicine.
Evelo Biosciences is dedicated to improving the lives of patients globally through the development of a new modality of medicines – monoclonal microbials. Monoclonal microbials are orally delivered medicines that modulate systemic immunology and biology through direct interactions with human cells in the gut. These new medicines are broadly applicable across many diseases – including autoimmune, immunoinflammatory, metabolic, neurological, neuroinflammatory diseases and cancer. Monoclonal microbials have the potential to fundamentally change traditional models of drug discovery and development. By finding and selecting naturally occurring monoclonal microbials with defined therapeutic effects, Evelo can improve the speed, cost and success of drug discovery and development. Evelo`s platform enables pharmacological intervention at all stages of disease with naturally occurring, safe and effective monoclonal microbials. Evelo Biosciences was conceived and created within VentureLabs®, Flagship Pioneering`s institutional innovation foundry, and launched by Flagship in 2015.
BD Biosciences - Canada is a Mississauga, ON-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
GeneDx is focused on delivering personalized, actionable insights that improve health outcomes. We sit at the intersection of diagnostics and data science, pairing decades of genomic expertise with an unmatched ability to interpret clinical data at scale. Our exome and genome testing is among the best in the industry. We expect that it will be even more advanced in the future with the help of Centrellis®, our innovative health information platform. Powered by millions of medical records, Centrellis® integrates digital tools with artificial intelligence to ingest and synthesize clinical and genomic data. As a result of our robust test menu, including our exome and genome testing, and the comprehensive insights generated by Centrellis®, we are developing a more complete understanding of complex disease than ever before. This translates to faster diagnosis, more effective treatment plans, and enhanced drug discovery. Our offerings help a whole spectrum of healthcare partners -- clinicians, researchers, health systems, pharmaceutical companies, and payors -- improve patient experiences and advance population health.
Homology is based on groundbreaking science that harnesses the naturally occurring process of homologous recombination. This non-nuclease-based approach offers clear advantages in its precision, efficiency and on-target in vivo editing of genetic mutations. Homology obtained an exclusive worldwide license to this technology platform, which is based on the pioneering research of Saswati Chatterjee, Ph.D., Professor of Virology at the Beckman Research Institute at the City of Hope in California, member of the Recombinant DNA Advisory Committee (RAC) to the Office of the Director, National Institutes of Health (NIH) and former charter member of the Therapeutic Approaches to Genetic Diseases Study Section of the NIH. Dr. Chatterjee and her team led the first adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector-mediated gene transfer studies into human hematopoietic stem cells and subsequently identified and isolated a series of naturally-occurring AAVs from human CD34+ cells.
