The Rare Cancer Research Foundation (RCRF) is dedicated to curing rare cancers through strategic investments and innovative collaborations that catalyze effective research and accelerate deployment of promising therapies. While rare cancers accounted for just over 25 percent of all new cancer diagnoses in 2013, they comprised more than 40 percent of all cancer deaths. RCRF`s goal is to develop research infrastructure for each rare cancer.
We founded Cedilla at a time of fundamental and rapidly growing insight into the mechanisms underlying protein stability. Small molecules that degrade or stablize target proteins are precedented, but have been discovered serendipitously. Cedilla is taking an integrated approach to discover new drugs with this mode of action. Our present focus is to develop novel medicines in oncology, but this approach will also be applicable to other fields, including central nervous system disorders and genetic diseases. Cedilla launched with $56.2 million in Series A funding from Third Rock Ventures.
Lygos employs cutting edge synthetic biology techniques to generate microbial catalysts to convert agricultural feedstocks into fine and commodity chemicals. Our robust high throughput screening and strain construction facilitates the rapid optimization of pathways to convert cheap and renewable feedstock to high value chemicals.

At Alveo we understand the importance of access to cutting-edge molecular testing and cloud-based data analytics for rapid diagnosis and management of infectious diseases. With an initial focus on acute respiratory infections including COVID-19, Flu A/B and RSV, Alveo`s agile and dynamic molecular diagnostic platform, be.well™, can be adapted to detect a wide range of diseases, bacteria, and other pathogens that threaten public health, across all modalities. We believe increased access to real-time test results will transform the way individuals, healthcare providers and public health professionals identify and manage infectious diseases. With be.well™, we will Know Sooner, Act Faster™.
