Since our founding in 2003, we have pursued our vision of using the immune system to find and fight proteins central to the development and progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Our ultimate aim is to improve the lives of patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases, by focusing on the root cause rather than symptom management: an ethos inspired by the impact that vaccines have on health and society worldwide. We have a broad portfolio of immunotherapy candidates which are currently in clinical trials or in preclinical development for a variety of neurodegenerative diseases; these include Parkinson’s disease, multiple system atrophy (MSA), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and Huntington’s disease (mutHTT).
Meet our exceptional team, who have a proven track record of making ground-breaking scientific discoveries and developing novel therapies.
Together we can achieve more.
