We are a drug discovery company passionate about using radical approaches to develop transformative treatments targeting G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs.) While we recognize the importance of traditional assays, we believe the path to better therapeutics requires innovative technologies.
Through our proprietary genetically encoded GPCR biosensors, our vision is to revolutionize GPCR drug discovery.
Our discovery programs aim to bring forth first-in-class and best-in-class preclinical candidates in CNS indications targeting new and challenging GPCRs.
