Veradermics is a late clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company founded by dermatologists with direct clinical experience in the treatment of pattern hair loss, a chronic condition that affects 50 million men and 30 million women in the US alone. Our team combines dermatology expertise, clinical research leadership, and biotechnology innovation to advance new solutions and help bring clarity, evidence, and reliability to pattern hair loss. Our mission: to set a new standard in pattern hair loss by developing treatments rooted in real evidence. Our lead investigational product has the potential to be the first non-hormonal oral therapeutic for hair regrowth in men and women. Pattern hair loss is the largest aesthetics condition worldwide, with no new approved prescription therapies in nearly 30 years. Learn more at www.veradermics.com

It’s time to think again about therapies for neurodegenerative disease. At CuraSen, we are targeting neurodegeneration with novel science and treatments so patients can THINK, AGAIN. CuraSen Therapeutics, Inc. is a privately funded biopharmaceutical company pursuing development of novel treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease, as well as several orphan indications. Millions of patients and their families are burdened by these diseases, and the numbers continue to grow annually with the aging population. At CuraSen, we are rethinking the therapeutic approach to treatment of neurodegenerative diseases—and advancing a concept based on restoring a key functionality to a pathway lost early in the degenerating brain. This pathway emanates from the locus coeruleus (LC), site of the earliest pathology seen in these diseases – perhaps the ‘hypocenter’ of neurodegeneration. We began clinical testing of our hypothesis in 2019 using established drugs from other therapeutic areas, which has informed our development program and helped advance our first new chemical entity, CST-2032, to the clinic in September 2020. CuraSen has assembled an impressive team, deeply experienced in the neuroscience, pharmacology and clinical development core to its approach, as well as top tier investor backing, including New Leaf Venture Partners, Longitude Capital, funds managed by Tekla Capital Management LLC, Alta Partners, Johnson & Johnson Innovation – JJDC, Inc. (JJDC), and Pappas Capital.

We are a biopharmaceutical company discovering and developing innovative therapies for challenging disorders of the brain and nervous system, starting with painful diabetic neuropathy, fibromyalgia, PTSD and Parkinson’s cognitive impairment. We have a proven platform for discovering proprietary compounds that works through a novel mechanism: modulation of the NMDA receptor to enhance pathways involved with nerve cell communication. Our goal is to rapidly advance our pipeline of novel clinical candidates to treat indications with high unmet medical need. At Aptinyx, we remain committed and responsive to our employees. We offer an engaging work environment, challenging work assignments, and competitive compensation and benefits.

Vaxcyte is a vaccine innovation company engineering high-fidelity vaccines to protect humankind from the consequences of bacterial diseases. VAX-31, a 31-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) candidate being evaluated in the OPUS Phase 3 adult clinical program and in a Phase 2 infant clinical program, is being developed for the prevention of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) and is the broadest-spectrum PCV candidate in the clinic today. VAX-24, a 24-valent PCV candidate, is designed to cover more serotypes than any infant PCV on-market. VAX-31 and VAX-24 are designed to improve upon standard-of-care PCVs by covering the serotypes in circulation that cause a significant portion of IPD and are associated with high case-fatality rates, antibiotic resistance and meningitis, while maintaining coverage of previously circulating strains. VAX-XL, in earlier-stage development, also leverages the Company’s carrier-sparing, site-specific conjugation technology with the aim of further expanding coverage to deliver the broadest-spectrum candidate in the Company’s PCV franchise. Vaxcyte is re-engineering the way highly complex vaccines are made through XpressCF®, its cell-free protein synthesis platform exclusively licensed from Sutro Biopharma, Inc. Unlike conventional cell-based approaches, the Company’s system for producing difficult-to-make proteins and antigens is intended to accelerate its ability to develop high-fidelity vaccines with enhanced immunological benefits. Vaxcyte’s pipeline also includes VAX-A1, a prophylactic vaccine candidate designed to prevent Group A Strep infections, and VAX-GI, a vaccine candidate designed to prevent Shigella.
