biolib
Biological data science: BioLib is a library of software tools for analysis of biological data. We are on a mission to empower researchers in the life sciences by making breakthroughs in machine learning and computational biology accessible. With BioLib, researchers in pharma and the life sciences can access and run state-of-the-art tools like AlphaFold and ProteinSolver, in the way that works for them - whether that means using Python APIs, the command-line, or a browser-based front-end. Tools in the library require no installation to run and BioLib’s zero-knowledge compute environments allow organizations to instantaneously deploy and run tools developed by third parties without any risk of exposing sensitive data.

Ciana Therapeutics
Ophthalmology: Ciana Therapeutics is a clinical development-stage company lead by an experienced team. Their lead therapy is a small-molecule oral therapy that treats clinically validated pathologies of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and addresses a large unmet medical need. Unlike the leading injectable eye therapies that target VEGF to limit vascular edema, this novel oral therapy stabilizes cell-cell junctions, protects from retinal capillary breakdown and reduces vascular leakage and edema. By targeting the core disease pathology, this oral therapy is uniquely suited to address the need for more effective and less burdensome therapies for all DR patients.
