Israeli startup CytoReason has secured $80 million in funding to scale up its AI disease models and establish a hub in the United States. The company, founded in 2016, develops computational disease models for predictive insights to aid pharma companies and researchers in finding new drug targets for autoimmune diseases. The funding comes from industry giants like NVIDIA, Pfizer, Thermo Fisher, and OurCrowd.
CytoReason plans to expand the application of its models into additional indications, grow its molecular and clinical data, and set up an office in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The aim is to reach more biotech and pharma companies to accelerate asset development across therapeutic areas and benefit more patients globally. The company's CEO, David Harel, emphasizes the importance of data modelling in revolutionizing pharma R&D.
