CAMP4 Therapeutics

What if we told you that our bodies make use of only a few hundred different signaling pathways to control all of our 20,000 or so genes. We call it the gene circuitry code, unique for every gene in our body. CAMP4 has built a proprietary 4-D Gene Circuity Platform to codify the discrete set of combinatorial rules used by any human cell type central to disease pathology. By applying the power of computational biology and machine learning algorithms, CAMP4 is able to rapidly solve for druggable targets to control the output of any disease gene of interest.
