As we grow older, our cells become less functional, accumulating errors that cause cell damage over time. As the errors accumulate, more and more of our cells become senescent, stopping proper function and increasing disarray in the surrounding cellular environment, ultimately contributing to the emergence and progress of age-associated diseases. Not for much longer. Rubedo Life Sciences, founded by Marco Quarta and Mark Gallop, is making it possible to treat these cells with newfound anti-aging therapeutics. Their platform identifies specific druggable targets and develops them into therapeutics that selectively target senescent pathologic cells, fighting the results of ageing. By addressing the cellular, fundamental cause of age-related diseases, Rubedo is a pioneer in the mission to preserve biological youth - and that’s why we joined their recent $40 million Series A round with Khosla Ventures, Ahren Innovation Capital, Hevolution Foundation, R42 Group, Modi Ventures, Shanda Group, Refactor Capital, IAG and others. https://lnkd.in/daVr8-UQ
