Abstract
Laura Itzhaki’s talk will focus on a new technology that PolyProx Therapeutics has developed to harness the cell’s internal quality-control machinery. Their approach shortcuts cell signals to redirect the machinery to dispose of disease-associated proteins. In 2019, PolyProx Therapeutics secured seed financing to develop drug candidates exploiting this technology.
