"We are thrilled to have assembled such a luminary group of senior pharma and biotech executives to support our leadership team as we continue to grow our unique data science-driven drug discovery strategies and R&D partnerships,” said RS co-founder and CEO, Adam Kolom.
In an era of many parallel revolutions, instead of advocating for any single drug target, technology, or disease, RS aims to systematically identify the best therapeutic opportunities out of ALL possibilities, and to create a new R&D model designed to leverage ALL of the newest validated technologies and therapeutic modalities.
To achieve these aims, RS built Facets™, a first-of-its-kind machine learning platform which ingests datasets covering virtually all activities in global biomedicine, and systematically ranks millions of opportunities across 100s of quantitative risk-reward criteria to identify the best ones every disease (“Moneyball for biotech”). Then, to efficiently discover new high value medicines, RS utilizes a novel “decentralized R&D model”, assembling field-leading scientists from both academia and industry into multi-disciplinary teams tailored to the unique needs of each drug program.
“Related Sciences takes a unique systematic approach to discovering valuable new medicines for unmet patient needs, focusing on the combination of AI/ML, team science, and an efficient R&D operating model to advance the drug discovery programs with the best chances of success,” said RS Senior Advisor, Dr. Jeffrey Bluestone.
RS currently works with more than 100 scientists and 8 top R&D partners around the world, on an initial portfolio of 15 drug programs focused on immunology and inflammatory biology.
