Synendos Therapeutics develops a class of small molecules for the treatment of anxiety and stress-related disorders. The company also develops breakthrough safe and effective therapies for unmet needs in neuropsychiatric disorders through modulation of a new drug target in the endocannabinoid system that enables restoration of the natural functioning of the brain. The inhibitors act with a new mechanism of action that enables restoration of the natural function of the brain by rebalancing altered neurotransmission in different areas of the bran. There is a high demand for new pharmacological treatments in this area especially for certain diseases such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) which has a high unmet medical need.

Memo Therapeutics AG, based in Basel, Switzerland, specializes in innovative antibody discovery and immune repertoire analysis. The company utilizes its proprietary MemoMAB platform, which generates a recombinant in vitro copy of an individual's B cell or antibody repertoire, creating extensive libraries that represent unique immune responses. These libraries are expected to contain a vast array of relevant and rare antibodies, opening new avenues for immune repertoire analysis and antibody discovery. Memo Therapeutics applies this technology in its own antibody lead discovery programs and partners with other entities to enhance research and development in the fields of viral infections and cancer. Through its advancements, Memo Therapeutics aims to significantly improve therapeutic options for patients.
