“Proxygen´s approach to develop novel molecular “glues”, i.e. compounds that reprogram the cellular degradation machinery to eliminate disease-causing proteins is going beyond what the field is currently doing. Their combination of cellular and genetic screens with drug finding approaches and the high likelihood of translateability to innovative drugs made the application stand out.”

Boehringer Ingelheim RCV & Co KG
