CytoReason has established itself as a global leader in computational modeling of human diseases. The company’s multidisciplinary team of 65 leading biologists, bioinformaticians and data engineers has developed a technology that enables pharma and biotech companies to speed up drug R&D and bring novel therapies to the patients who most need them.
Since launching the collaboration in 2019, Pfizer has used CytoReason’s models in Pfizer’s research to enhance the understanding of the immune system in pursuit of developing innovative d****. CytoReason’s platform has provided Pfizer with multiple insights in a number of R&D programs across over 20 diseases.
“It’s exciting to see our technology in the hands of such a stellar group of scientists,” said David Harel, CytoReason’s CEO and Co-founder. “Our work with the Pfizer team has demonstrated how our computational models can potentially match the right treatment to the right patient groups, across multiple therapeutic areas. Through this collaboration and our growing customer base worldwide, we aim to establish our platform as the gold standard for drug discovery, development and portfolio management.”
