Cognition Therapeutics Inc. is a drug discovery and development company located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Founded in 2007, the company uses proprietary biology and chemistry platforms to discover novel drug targets and disease modifying therapies for disorders of the central nervous system.
We are a life sciences company that is building on over a decade of extensive research on the genetic mutations associated with cystic fibrosis.
Pionyr Immuntherapeutics (formerly Precision Immune Inc.) is developing cancer immunotherapies that target the tumor microenvironment to enhance the body`s antitumor immunity. The company is exploiting novel target discovery and antibody generation platform technologies to create the next generation of immuno-oncology therapeutics. The company`s approach, Myeloid Tuning™, is designed to enhance the immune system`s anti-tumor response by altering the cellular infiltrate of the tumor microenvironment with high specificity.
Hound Labs combines science and technology in novel ways to improve health and wellness. The Company believes its ultra-sensitive and portable technologies will pave the way to practical and fair solutions for some of the leading public health and safety issues. In the coming month, Hound Labs will launch the HOUND® CANNABIS BREATHALYZER, which allows employers and law enforcement to identify recent cannabis in breath.

The trillions of microbes that call us home – the human microbiome – perform critical functions that preserve our health including helping develop our immune system, manufacturing nutrients such as vitamins, and harvesting energy from the diet. Alterations of the human microbiome are increasingly recognized as a key factor in autoimmune, metabolic, infectious and many other diseases. For millions of years, humans have co-evolved with this community of microbes, communicating in an ancient language that holds critical clues about how autoimmune and infectious diseases develop. This language is based on a system of signals that our resident microbes use to successfully colonize us, such as byproducts of bacterial metabolism and factors that bacteria use to adapt to human niches. Recent discoveries have shown that most of these signals do not lead to disease, rather, they promote our long-term survival. Vedanta Biosciences is developing an innovative class of therapies that modulate pathways of interaction between the human microbiome and the host immune system. Vedanta Biosciences was co-founded by PureTech and a group of world renowned experts in immunology and microbiology.
