Congratulations to Derek Clay on his 2-year anniversary with GRObio!     As a key member of our Biofoundry team, Derek has contributed to dramatically improving our throughput for constructing new therapies, as well as automating key assays for development. Thank you for all your contributions to GRObio, Derek!     #WorkAnniversary

August marks GRObio's 7th anniversary!    Since 2017, we have made great strides on our mission to leverage the unprecedented capabilities of non-standard amino acids (NSAAs) in our GRO platform to redefine therapeutics. This year we celebrate multiple major milestones, including obtaining positive pre-clinical data on multiple indications, and closing our Series B financing to advance our company to the clinical stage.    We want to thank our business and scientific teams for their determination and dedication as well as our investors and partners for believing in our mission. We’re excited for the future as we work to advance our lead program into the clinic for the treatment of refractory gout, to broaden the GRObio pipeline, and to expand our GRO platform for scalable production of therapeutics incorporating multiple NSAAs.    Follow us or sign up on our website to receive our latest updates: https://grobio.com/.  #biotech #anniversary #synbio

#ICYMI – Hannah Green at Boston Business Journal recently interviewed GRObio CEO, Dan Mandell, PhD, about our recent $60M #SeriesB #financing.    Dr. Mandell discussed how GRObio’s ProGly-NSAAs prevent immune reactions that render many therapies ineffective, and how resolving this critical limitation is key to advancing the Company’s lead asset, ProGly-Uricase, for treating patients with severe, refractory gout into the clinic.    Read the article here to learn more.  https://lnkd.in/eEdwgX_8 #gout #uricacid  

Thank you to The Termeer Foundation for all their support and mentorship! Our CEO Dan Mandell is a 2023 Termeer Fellow and took advantage of this value-driven leadership program for first-time CEOs. The Termeer Fellows Program includes mentoring, network building, and professional development intended to facilitate connections, break down silos, strengthen skillsets, and ultimately enable a diverse array of current and future biotech leaders.

Last week, BiotechTV host Brad Loncar visited GRObio’s office in Cambridge and had a discussion with GRObio CEO Dan Mandell, PhD, about the Company’s recent Series B financing. Dr. Mandell explained how this funding will advance GRObio’s lead program for gout into the clinic and expand the company’s pipeline and GRO platform. In the interview, Dr. Mandell describes how thousands of gout patients do not respond to any treatment, and how the Company’s ProGly technology can prevent the immune response that makes current therapies ineffective.
