Neurona Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing cell-based therapies for treating neurological disorders. Founded by neuroscientists at UCSF in 2008, the company focuses on generating therapeutic compositions of specific nerve cells for targeted delivery into the injured nervous system.

Surrozen, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company based in South San Francisco, California, focused on developing targeted regenerative antibodies to enhance tissue and organ repair in response to serious diseases. Founded in 2015, the company specializes in modulating the Wnt pathway, a crucial mediator of tissue regeneration, through its innovative antibody platforms that target specific organs and tissues. Notable programs include SZN-043, designed to stimulate liver regeneration in both acute and chronic liver diseases, and SZN-1326, aimed at repairing damaged epithelial tissue in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Surrozen's approach extends to multiple organ systems, with potential applications in the intestine, liver, retina, cornea, lung, kidney, cochlea, skin, pancreas, and central nervous system.

Circle Pharma, Inc. is an early-stage biotechnology company based in South San Francisco, California, founded in 2012 by Matt Jacobson and Scott Lokey. The company specializes in developing cell-permeable macrocyclic peptide therapeutics aimed at critical clinical targets. It employs proprietary computational design algorithms and innovative synthetic chemistry to create first-in-class macrocycle therapies that can be administered through various routes, including oral delivery. Circle Pharma's platform utilizes structure-based rational drug design and an iterative process to generate large virtual libraries of diverse macrocycle scaffolds, which are selected for their permeability. This approach enables the company to address challenging targets, particularly in the context of intracellular protein-protein interactions that play a significant role in cancer, thereby fulfilling unmet clinical needs. The company is led by David J. Earp.

Tenaya Therapeutics is a preclinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing therapies for heart disease and heart failure. It operates three product platforms: cellular regeneration, which aims to regenerate heart tissue by reprogramming cardiac fibroblasts into cardiomyocytes via delivery of proprietary transcription factors; gene therapy, which targets cardiac fibroblasts to deliver therapeutic payloads; and precision medicine, which enables personalized approaches to treat heart disease. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in South San Francisco, California, Tenaya seeks to address the underlying cellular pathologies of diseased myocardium with curative therapies that advance from discovery through development.
