SciFluor Life Sciences is a drug discovery company applying expertise in fluorine chemistry to create a portfolio of differentiated best-in-class therapeutics. The company is creating a portfolio of new chemical entities (NCEs) directed towards precedented biological targets. SciFluor strategically incorporates fluorine or fluorine-containing groups to design drugs with improved pharmacological profiles that provide important benefits over existing therapies such as improved safety, efficacy, more convenient dosing and better patient compliance. This capital-efficient and de-risked drug discovery approach has resulted in the generation of a proprietary pipeline of novel and differentiated small molecule drugs across a range of therapeutic categories and disease areas including retinal disease, CNS disorders, fungal and bacterial infections and inflammatory disease.
RubrYc Therapeutics is a biotechnology company that integrates chemistry and computation to decode therapeutically significant protein interfaces, revolutionizing the discovery of antibody-based drugs.
ALERT Life Sciences Computing is a Reston, VA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Cogent Biosciences is a biotechnology company developing real solutions to treat genetically driven diseases. With a focus on rational drug discovery and development, we are leveraging validated biology to advance precision therapies designed to address the true underlying drivers of disease and provide real hope for patients. Cogent`s lead therapeutic candidate, PLX9486 (expected to be named CGT9486 in the future), is a precision kinase inhibitor designed to selectively and potently inhibit the KIT D816V mutation. This mutation is responsible for driving a rare and serious condition called Systemic Mastocytosis which can severely impact many different tissues and organs in the body. We are also studying PLX9486 to treat advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), which have a strong dependence on oncogenic KIT signaling.
NewLeaf Symbiotics® is at the forefront of sustainable agriculture technology, with a singular focus on the identification, development and commercialization of the beneficial microbes called pink pigmented facultative methylotrophs (M-trophs). This new class of agricultural microbes is helping transition agricultural products and production to deliver better quality crops, with less impact on the environment — a win-win for growers and those of us who depend on their success.
