Axonis Therapeutics

Axonis Therapeutics is a biotechnology company focused on developing therapies for neurological disorders by targeting KCC2, a key mediator of inhibition in the brain. The company utilizes a proprietary discovery engine centered on the neuron-specific K-Cl cotransporter (KCC2) to address various conditions, including epilepsy and pain, as well as other central nervous system pathologies. By harnessing breakthrough research from institutions such as Boston Children’s Hospital, Harvard, and Laval University, Axonis aims to enhance the lives of individuals affected by these disorders through improved modulation of neuronal inhibition.
