We are a biotechnology discovery company focused on the discovery of therapeutic and diagnostic product candidates. Our predictive models and discovery engines enable us to discover numerous potential therapeutics and diagnostic biomarkers. This capability results from our pioneering efforts in the deeper understanding of important biological phenomena at the molecular level through the incorporation of ideas and methods from mathematics, computer science, and physics into biology, chemistry and medicine. To date, our product discovery efforts and initial discovery engines have focused mainly on cancer, cardiovascular and immune-related diseases. Product development is pursued both in-house and through collaborative arrangements.
Our primary commercialization pathway for our therapeutic and diagnostic product candidates is to enter into milestone and revenue sharing out-licensing and joint development agreements with leading companies.
We focus on three principal research and development activities; therapeutics, diagnostic biomarkers and research and discovery. These activities are serviced and supported by our financial, legal and business development personnel.
