Receptor Life Sciences, Inc. develops inhaled therapeutic products for conditions including chronic pain, neurologic diseases, and inflammatory disorders.
ZS Pharma is using innovative technology to change the landscape of disease management. At ZS Pharma, we have a vision—to transform the status quo and improve the options for patients and physicians facing difficult-to-manage conditions such as ion imbalances. We are committed to taking on medicine’s challenges with a new outlook, and we believe that real progress comes with a real promise to approach things in a novel way.
Zucara Therapeutics, a CDRD and MaRS Innovation portfolio company, is developing the first drug therapy to prevent hypoglycemia in people with diabetes. Our first-in-class therapeutic is focused on improving glucagon counterregulation by inhibiting somatostatin which is dysregulated in Type 1 diabetes.
Auron Therapeutics aims to cure cancer by radically changing the paradigm of cancer therapeutics from cell killing to transformation of malignant cells into more normal functioning cells.
Our founding belief is that the future of medicine will rely on artificial intelligence, because biology is too complex for humans to understand. Today, the molecular world of the cell can be experimentally interrogated like never before. The resulting datasets provide an unprecedented opportunity to build artificial intelligence systems that are biologically accurate and that support the detection of disease and the development of molecular interventions. Deep Genomics is building a biologically accurate data- and AI-driven platform that supports geneticists, molecular biologists and chemists in the development of therapies. Over the next two years, Deep Genomics will use its platform to unlock new classes of antisense oligonucleotide therapies that were previously inaccessible or out of reach, and advance them for clinical evaluation. In project Saturn, the platform will be used to search across a vast space of over 69 billion molecules with the goal of generating a library of 1000 compounds that can be used to manipulate cell biology and design therapies.
