Through phenotypic screening of human iPSC-derived cells, supported by Evotec’s PanOmics platform, Evotec will identify small molecules able to modulate disease phenotypes, and then validate the underlying promising targets for potential therapeutic interventions.
Collaboration combines Apellis’ expertise in complement with Beam’s proprietary base editing platform. Companies will collaborate on six research programs directed to tissues modulated by the complement system, including the eye, liver, and brain.
Subject to the terms of the agreement, Neurophth will make an initial cash payment to AAVnerGene to test ~100 AAV capsids. Within 6-12 months upon receiving the AAV capsids, Neurophth is responsible for completing the preclinical studies on these capsids.
AbCellera will use its full stack, AI-powered antibody discovery technology to discover and identify a large panel of antibodies against new targets designated by Kodiak.
