Fountain Therapeutics states that aging can be biologically measured, understood, and therapeutically targeted at the cellular level, and that reversing cellular aging can become a new way to treat age-related disease. The company presents aging as a core driver of poor health and disease, argues that cellular aging shares pathways with other physiological processes, and says this creates an opportunity to intervene with drugs that ameliorate diseases of aging.
SourceFountain Therapeutics states that it was founded on the belief that a future in which people live healthier lives longer is preferable to one in which people remain afflicted by the disease of aging. The company says it is discovering and developing treatments for aging-associated diseases and pursuing a vision of extending healthy lifespan and slowing aging itself through a laboratory model of aging combined with artificial intelligence and computer vision.
SourceFountain Therapeutics states that it was founded on the belief that a future in which people live healthier lives longer is preferable to one in which people remain afflicted by the disease of aging. The company says it is discovering and developing treatments for aging-associated diseases, using a laboratory model that recreates hallmark features of aging and combining it with artificial intelligence and computer vision to identify novel targets and potential therapeutics, all in service of extending healthy lifespan and slowing aging itself.
SourceFountain Therapeutics states that aging can be addressed as a root driver of disease by developing therapeutics that reverse cellular aging. The company says it combines aging research and computation, and believes AI can uncover previously hidden cellular features that measure aging precisely and generate new insights into the cellular aging process, supporting its effort to extend human health span.
