Our Science :
The groundbreaking science behind our therapies continues to yield vital insights into diseases that have confounded physicians and researchers.
Our core scientific approach is centered on the chromatin regulatory system, which opens and closes the right sections of DNA at the right time.
Breakdowns in the chromatin regulatory system lead to a wide range of diseases, including cancer, impacting millions of people.
Our proprietary Gene Traffic Control® platform is a powerful tool for understanding and modulating the chromatin regulatory system.
We are pursuing multiple treatments for breakdowns in this system. We are the only company with the ability to study and target the chromatin regulatory system at scale, in context, and in an integrated way.
