Neuron 23: Precision Neuroscience for Neurodegenerative Diseases
Neuron 23, a biotech company, aims to translate genetics into targeted therapies for Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and other neurodegenerative diseases. Using a precision neuroscience approach, they target LARC2 protein associated with Parkinson's. A blood-based companion diagnostic helps select patients with the LARC2 genetic signature most likely to benefit from the drug. Neuron 23's focus on genetics and biomarkers provides hope for more effective treatments in neurodegenerative diseases.
