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.
Left unchecked, two base rats, a male and a female, can result in 15,000 descendants in about 12 months. It`s easy to see how quickly this can lead to infestations and even population rebounds if just two rats are left behind after a knockdown program. That`s where we come in. We`re SenesTech, the rat fertility experts and the makers of ContraPest®, the first and only EPA-registered rat fertility restrictor impacting both male and female rats. We make it possible to target both ends of the lifecycle—birth and death—by adding fertility control to your integrated pest management (IPM) solution. Controlling the birth rate with ContraPest will magnify the success of your existing IPM protocols. ContraPest is the one-of-a-kind, innovative technology that targets the reproductive capabilities of both male and female Norway and roof rats. Sweet and fatty, it`s highly palatable like a “milkshake” rats can`t get enough of. By using ContraPest, you can reduce the rat population and keep it down because ContraPest works!
