Why it matters
Demonstrates the practical application of AI in accelerating pharmaceutical research and drug development pipelines.
PostEra is building an AI-first biotech. We use Proton, our AI platform for medicinal chemistry, to accelerate the discovery of new medicines for patients. PostEra is advancing an internal pipeline focused on Women's Health and Fertility, and has used Proton to nominate multiple clinical candidates across PMOS and Fertility. PostEra also advances small molecule programs through partnerships with pharma. We've closed over $1B in AI partnerships including 4 multi-year agreements with Pfizer and Amgen . PostEra is also leading an antiviral drug discovery center for pandemic preparedness , funded by one of the largest grants in NIH history.
We believe time spent navigating complex hierarchies in organizations is better invested in the pursuit of novel technology and scientific discoveries. As such, our organizational structure is intentionally minimalist.
