We're excited to share that Dewpoint has been awarded a Target ALS grant for the second time! This grant will support our ongoing work to develop innovative treatments for ALS, specifically targeting aberrant TDP-43 condensates to address the inclusions and dysfunction found in nearly all ALS patients. In collaboration with Biospective, this in-kind grant allows us to test our leading compound in a mouse model of slow-progressing ALS—bringing us one step closer to the clinic and, ultimately, to our goal of treating those affected by this devastating disease. At Dewpoint, our approach to drug discovery is unique. We focus on biomolecular condensates—membraneless compartments within the cell that, when dysregulated, contribute to conditions like ALS and other devastating diseases. By targeting these condensates, we’re working to develop first-in-class treatments that address the root causes of diseases of high unmet need. 👉 Learn more at https://lnkd.in/ervBZjDd

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
DEI&B has been making waves in the media recently, and the LEAP HR conference was a great platform for me to emphasize the importance of refocusing on the core purpose. At the conference, I had the privilege of engaging in a fireside chat with Kathy Roszczeda on how to effectively connect with the new generation joining the workforce. Additionally, being part of a panel discussion with remarkable individuals shed light on the evolving landscape of DEI&B in different organizations and perspectives. Pamela McGowan Madeline S. Nicole Platzer Livia Konkel Through these discussions, one key takeaway resonated with me – it all boils down to the individuals. Special thanks to Janesha De Silva and the LEAP HR team for providing me with the platform to delve into how DEIB is evolving and embedded in our organizational fabric at Dewpoint and the importance of leadership buy-in and support. #DEI #HR #Inclusion #Diversity #WorkforceDevelopment #EmployeeEngagement

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.
