Dewpoint Therapeutics has entered a collaboration with Chemify to expedite the discovery of molecules that target cancer and neurodegeneration.
The companies will leverage the programmable chemistry platform of Chemify to develop an array of digitally discovered and automatically synthesised new molecules against specific condensate targets in the oncology and neurodegeneration pipeline of Dewpoint.
The collaboration will combine Chemify’s chemistry artificial intelligence (AI) and automation technology platform with the condensate biology and AI technology platform of Dewpoint.
Chemify’s platform can design, discover and generate complex molecules leveraging a chemical programming language.
Furthermore, the company’s newly developed automated design, discovery and synthesis platform will be used to expedite the efforts of Dewpoint.
Under the deal, Chemify will carry out the design and delivery of new compounds to boost Dewpoint’s pipeline.
