Our vision is to become the leading innovative global life-sciences company that unlocks the potential of T-cell biology and combines it with the power of T-cell engineering excellence to provide cures for patients. Through our model of seamless and rapid integration of research, translational medicine, manufacturing science, clinical development and customer-centric approaches, we will design and deliver enhanced state-of-the-art solutions for patients in a host of disease areas using Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs), Gene edited T-Cells, T regulatory cells (Treg), and engineered T Cell Receptors (TCRs)
Yumanity Therapeutics is transforming drug discovery for neurodegenerative diseases caused by protein misfolding. Despite the fact that an estimated 50 million people worldwide suffer from diseases affecting the brain and central nervous system, there are no approved disease-modifying therapies or cures. Yumanity is working to identify and develop new, disease-modifying therapies that address several illnesses with critical unmet medical needs, including Alzheimer`s disease, Parkinson`s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The company`s approach concentrates on correcting the cellular pathologies driven by misfolded proteins, the altered biology or phenotypes driving these diseases. Yumanity Therapeutics was founded in December 2014 by Susan Lindquist, Ph.D., award-winning protein folding expert, and Tony Coles, M.D., a renowned biotech industry leader. The company`s proprietary platforms have already identified one potential new target for treating Parkinson`s disease, and Yumanity is actively advancing its new chemical lead series for this condition, as well as identifying additional compounds for Alzheimer`s disease and ALS. Targeting the underlying protein pathology of neurodegenerative diseases allows the company to discover therapies that may modify the root cause of these rather than only addressing their symptoms.
Mindstrong was founded by some of the world`s leading authorities in neuroscience, oncology, and technology. It is based on their shared vision to redefine neuropsychiatric healthcare, transforming diagnosis and delivering precision therapy. Mindstrong builds on one of the founder`s patented biomarker platform developed over years of extensive clinical R&D.
Cathay Industrial Biotech is a Mt Zion, IL-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
The Broad Institute brings together a diverse group of individuals from across its partner institutions — undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, professional scientists, administrative professionals, and academic faculty. The culture and environment at the Broad is designed to encourage creativity and to engage all participants, regardless of role or seniority, in the mission of the Institute. Within this setting, researchers are empowered — both intellectually and technically — to confront even the most difficult biomedical challenges. The Institute`s organization is unique among biomedical research institutions. It encompasses three types of organizational units: core member laboratories, programs and platforms. Scientists within these units work closely together — and with other collaborators around the world — to tackle critical problems in human biology and disease.
