It was a great honor to speak at the Biden Cancer Moonshot Workshop today at the Hubert Humphrey Building in Washington, DC. I had the opportunity to discuss how Dewpoint Therapeutics is leveraging condensate biology and the power of AI to tackle targets once deemed undruggable -an area with immense potential in the fight against cancer. Participating in this pivotal discussion reaffirmed the importance of our work and the need for continued innovation in cancer treatment. Excited to keep pushing the boundaries and contributing to new treatment options for patients.

Inclusion is one of Dewpoint’s core values, and we believe in empowering our employees to build a culture that’s meaningful to them as individuals. At the recent LEAP HR: Life Sciences East Conference, our own Global & US People Experience Lead Emmanuelle J. shared her perspectives on diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging, how Dewpoint embeds DEI&B into our organization, and the importance of leadership engagement. https://lnkd.in/gQeix47C

The 2024 Neurobiology of Brain Disorders GRC was an exceptional gathering of minds dedicated to unravelling the complexities of neurodegenerative diseases. From presentations to discussions, the exchange of unpublished data, and focus on emerging therapies, this conference was an inspiring reminder of the unified effort required from academia and industry. We were grateful for the opportunity to present our work on c-mods targeting TDP-43 condensates for the treatment of ALS. https://lnkd.in/eru934BQ The ground-breaking insights shared by fellow scientists across various career stages and backgrounds were a true testament to the passion and dedication driving this field. A special thanks to the GRC for organizing such an impactful event. We left feeling invigorated and more motivated than ever to continue our pursuit of solutions for these challenging diseases.

Dewpoint is honored to be one of the few industry representatives invited to the Biden Cancer Moonshot workshop on 15 August at the Hubert Humphrey building in Washington, DC. This event will provide an opportunity to discuss how AI approaches can address previously undruggable cancer targets (https://lnkd.in/ez6CCqUA). Dewpoint’s Head of Biology, Ann Boija, Ph.D., will present our progress in revolutionizing treatment options for cancers that have been deemed undruggable until now, by leveraging condensate biology and the power of AI.

This summer, we were pleased to welcome three students to Dewpoint’s Boston office for another successful internship program! Jacob Calka, Cathy Hoang and Mia Russ got real-world experience in the biotech industry, learned about the exciting field of #condensatebiology from scientific leaders on our Biology and Discovery Platform teams, and had some fun along the way! Our team was impressed to hear what they had accomplished during their end of summer presentations, and we look forward to seeing what their bright futures will hold!
