Kojin Therapeutics

Kojin Therapeutics, founded by Stuart Schreiber, Benjamin Cravatt, Stephanie Dougan, and Vasanthi Viswanathan, focuses on advancing a drug discovery platform that links complex cell states to established biochemical processes, specifically ferroptosis, which involves iron-dependent cell death. This innovative approach enables the development of targeted therapies for a wide range of challenging diseases that are often difficult to treat. The company's biology platform aims to identify disease-specific targets, ensuring that patients receive effective treatments tailored to their specific conditions. Kojin Therapeutics is supported by a diverse group of investors, including Polaris Partners, Newpath Partners, and AbbVie, among others.
