LifeMine Therapeutics

For thousands of years, people have discovered medicines from fungi by brewery. This approach has led to transformative medicines that saved millions of lives and have altered the course of medical history. Drug discovery by brewery proved to be difficult and time-consuming, leaving the field in search of a disruptive technological solution. Our genomically-enabled drug discovery engine is precisely that solution, dramatically accelerating the search for nature’s breakthrough drugs. At LifeMine, genomicists, bioinformaticians and microbiologists identify new evolutionary solutions for disease intervention; natural products chemists access the natural molecules that inspire our drug discovery efforts; biologist and chemist drug hunters craft these into disruptively innovative medicines, and translational medical scientists bring the life-saving solutions forward into patients in need.
