Overview
Collaborators with synergistic skills in disease modeling, AI, bioinformatics, and drug discovery, AcuraStem's co-founders discovered PIKFYVE as a therapeutic target for ALS and FTD in a project led by co-founder Dr. Justin Ichida and published in Nature Medicine in 2018. The company has since established the iNeuroRx® technology platform, built out its team incorporating world-class antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) expertise, and established a growing pipeline of treatments.
