Neuroscience

One particularly important area where we are placing our Partnering efforts is in Neuroscience. We believe the field of Neuroscience is on the cusp of important breakthroughs in both early diagnosis and treatment. Our relentless pursuit of scientific innovation is taking us into areas of enormous unmet medical need and progress in treating diseases of the brain and nervous system.

Our collaborative efforts have resulted in one of the strongest and most diverse pipelines in the industry, spanning the spectrum of nervous system disorders from the rarest to the most common.

Partnering opportunities we are looking for:

  • Neurodegenerative diseases (e.g. Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington disease)
  • Neuroinflammation (e.g. Multiple sclerosis)
  • Neuromuscular diseases (e.g. ALS, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy)
  • Neurodevelopment (e.g. ASD)
  • Stroke

Example partnerships

Atalanta – Multi-target SiRNA drug discovery collaboration.

UCB – Development and commercialization of antibody treatment for people living with Alzheimer’s Disease.
