Excited to co-lead SEEDS with @Georgetown, supported by @ARPA_H!
This ambitious collaboration aims to predict harmful protein changes linked to disease.
More Monday on the science, researchers and partners!

Proteins are the tiny molecule machines that keep our cells working.
When they misfold, cell function is disrupted which can lead to devastating disease.
ARPA-H’s BIOGAMI teams are targeting that early window by decoding how proteins misfold and finding ways to steer them back ervention could open new paths for Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS, and more.
