Novavax, Inc. (Nasdaq: NVAX), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, employs its cutting-edge technology to create next-generation vaccines to prevent serious infectious diseases, such as pandemic and seasonal influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). The company’s proprietary virus-like-particle (VLP) technology and single-use bioprocessing system enable rapid vaccine development and production where and when they are needed, worldwide. The company has formed a joint venture with Cadila Pharmaceuticals, named CPL Biologicals, to develop and manufacture vaccines, biological therapeutics and diagnostics in India. Additional information about Novavax is available on the company’s website
Arvinas is a pharmaceutical company focused on developing new small molecules ‒ known as PROTACs (PROteolysis TArgeting Chimeras) ‒ aimed at degrading disease-causing cellular proteins via proteolysis. Based on innovative research conducted at Yale University by Dr. Craig Crews, Founder and Chief Scientific Advisor, the company is translating natural protein degradation approaches into novel drugs for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. The proprietary PROTAC-based drug paradigm induces protein degradation, rather than protein inhibition, using the ubiquitin proteasome system and offers the advantage of potentially targeting “undruggable” as well as “druggable” elements of the proteome. This greatly expands the ability to create drugs for many new, previously unapproachable targets.
GeneGo bioinformatics software, Inc. is a Saint Joseph, MI-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Sienna Biopharmaceuticals is focused on the discovery, clinical development and commercialization of products in aesthetics and dermatology based on scientific breakthroughs that dramatically improve patient outcomes, and physicians’ practice of medicine.
Exscientia is a global pharmatech company using patient-first artificial intelligence (AI) to discover better drugs, faster. Our mission is to encode, automate and transform every stage of the drug design and development process, by combining the latest AI techniques with experimental innovation, to enable the design of patient centric drug candidates with an improved probability of success. Our validated platform has delivered the first three AI-designed drugs to enter clinical trials and is the first AI system proven to improve clinical outcomes in oncology. We`ve significantly accelerated pre-clinical drug discovery, with 10x productivity improvement in delivering a drug candidate compared with industry standards. By actively applying AI to precision engineer medicines more rapidly and efficiently, we allow the best ideas of science to rapidly become the best medicines for patients.
