Accurate Automation Corp. is a Chattanooga, TN-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
UNIConnect LC is a Sandy, UT-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
We are a genome editing company developing genetic medicines for the fight against rare pediatric diseases. GeneRide™ is a promoterless and nuclease-free approach to gene insertion which may improve the safety profile of AAV based gene therapies With GeneRide™, the therapeutic gene is site-specifically integrated into the genome allowing durable gene expression in dividing cells and mature tissues. Furthermore, therapeutic gene expression is regulated by the targeted locus so production can be limited to specific cell types.
Vertex is a global biotechnology company that invests in scientific innovation to create transformative medicines for people with serious and life-threatening diseases.
Bamboo was formed to advance the work of Dr. Richard Jude Samulski, the Director of the Gene Therapy Center at the University of North Carolina (UNC), from the laboratory into human clinical trials where it could meet the requirements for drug approval. Dr. Samulski is a pioneer in the field of gene therapy. Over thirty (30) years ago, Dr. Samulski was the first person to realize the potential to use the adeno-associated virus (AAV) as a vehicle to replace a defective gene with a healthy gene. Since that time, he has re-engineered the naturally occurring virus to target delivery to certain tissues, de-target other tissues, and improve its safety. This has resulted in over twenty (20) patents related to the use of AAV for therapeutic uses. Dr. Samulski continues to lead innovation in the field of vector optimization and AAV re-engineering.
