Genetic Medicine of African Populations
Switch Therapeutics is a precision neuroscience biotechnology company founded in 2020 and based in San Francisco, California, developing biomarker-gated genetic medicines for central nervous system (CNS) diseases with high unmet need.
Verve Therapeutics is a Boston-based clinical-stage biotechnology company developing a pipeline of in vivo gene editing medicines designed to treat cardiovascular disease with a single, one-time treatment.
Soufflé Therapeutics is a genetic medicine company developing nucleic acid (siRNA) therapeutics that use proprietary cell-specific ligand-conjugation technology to target and deliver treatments to specific cell types.
Tessera Therapeutics is an early-stage life sciences company, founded and backed by Flagship Pioneering, pioneering Gene Writing — a new category of genetic medicine designed to write therapeutic messages into the genome to treat and potentially cure disease at its source.
Arrakis Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company pioneering RNA-targeted small molecules (rSMs) as a new class of genetic medicines. Its rSM platform enables orally available small molecules to bind RNA and modulate previously undruggable biological pathways, with an industrialized discovery toolkit spanning multiple modalities.
SanegeneBio is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing RNAi (RNA interference) genetic medicines for metabolic, cardiovascular, and complement-mediated autoimmune diseases, including obesity.
Encoded Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing next-generation gene therapies for neurological disorders, translating precision genetic science into transformative genetic medicines.
