Mutations in the melanocortin receptor (MC4R) gene, leading to protein misfolding and impaired trafficking, are the leading cause of severe early-onset genetic obesity. At Congruence Therapeutics, we are using Revenir™, our in silico drug discovery engine to discover small molecule MC4R correctors which stabilize mutant MC4R, and rescue their trafficking and functional deficits, to offer hope to patients with genetic obesity.

We are proud of Lee Fader, Head of Chemistry and resident polymath, for being recognized by KNIME as a power user of their software. In this video, he explains how he coded KNIME to automate data aggregation, visualization and retrieval, making Congruence Therapeutics’ processes seamless and efficient. Keep innovating, Lee! #Biotech #Innovation #DrugDiscovery #AI
Lee Fader, Head of Chemistry at biotech company Congruence Therapeutics, has been using KNIME for over a decade. He says, “KNIME really cleans up the data preparation and, in many cases, is the engine we use to visualize the data. The biggest advantage for me using KNIME was to solve the problem of data coming in from very different sources and very different formats, often very inconsistently, and sort of aggregating everything together — just getting it to a point where we could do the analysis.” In this video, Lee shares his insights and experience about how his company uses KNIME. From automation to easy data retrieval, KNIME has made their processes seamless and time-efficient. Watch now! 📺
