Theradaptive’s mission is to develop new therapies to restore quality of life for the millions of people who suffer from debilitating conditions due to tissue injury. Their premier product is a computational platform that converts recombinant proteins into material-binding variants that can be used to coat implants, devices, and injectable carriers. This novel and unprecedented method enables us to deliver therapeutics to any location in the body with precision, such as allowing doctors to save limbs that would otherwise require amputation.
