Sensorium Therapeutics

As Epilepsy Awareness Month draws to a close, we proudly recognize those patients and caregivers who face the realities of #epilepsy every day. We aim to radically shift the current paradigm by leveraging medicinal chemistry, advanced neuronal screening models, and #AI to yield novel first-in-class medicines. One of our primary goals is to make available more effective and tolerable treatments for epilepsy patients. But there’s still a lot more that can be done. To effectuate change at scale we must work collaboratively across industry and academia to enhance current research initiatives and expand opportunities. Together, we can – and will – make a difference in the lives of those living with epilepsy. #AIinMedicine #DrugDiscovery #EpilepsyAwarenessMonth #Biotech

In the U.S., an estimated $24.5 billion is spent annually to treat #epilepsy and #seizures. New treatment options are needed to overcome this debilitating disease, and that’s why we remain committed to discovering new therapies for people awaiting innovation. One way our team does this is by leveraging the power of #AI to more quickly identify and develop new chemical compounds to treat complex neurological disorders, including epilepsy.

For a third of patients with #epilepsy, #anxiety is an all-too-common feeling. As we continue celebrating Epilepsy Awareness Month and the millions of people affected globally, our team remains committed to discovering novel solutions. Our second clinical program, SENS-03, has shown efficacy in multiple validated seizure models and preclinical anxiety models and aims to tackle both seizures and co-morbid anxiety. To help raise awareness, Sensorium and SmartLabs are proudly hosting a clothing drive to benefit the Epilepsy Foundation New England. To learn more and join the cause visit epilepsy.com.

DYK? Epilepsy affects over 50 million people worldwide, with 30-40% of patients continuing to have seizures despite available treatments. This Epilepsy Awareness Month, we’re sounding the alarm on the need for big ideas and new approaches to bring new hope to people living with #epilepsy. All month long, Sensorium and SmartLabs are hosting a clothing drive to benefit the Epilepsy Foundation New England, and we welcome anyone local to Boston to contact us for details on how to donate.

🐝 We were proud to contribute to the buzz in Chicago this week at the Society for Neuroscience #SfN24! The team presented new preclinical data on our lead assets—SENS-01, a novel fast-acting anxiolytic for #anxiety disorders, and SENS-03, a new treatment for drug-resistant #epilepsy—as well as updates on our differentiated drug discovery strategy. As we gear up to enter the clinic in early 2025, we’re committed to advancing first-in-class #CNS medicines to address critical unmet need. See the key takeaways and read the release: https://lnkd.in/egfSazEs #Neuroscience2024 #DrugDiscovery #Data #Biotech

This weekend we’re heading to the Society for Neuroscience #SfN24 to share new data on lead assets SENS-01 for anxiety and SENS-03 for epilepsy and highlight advancements in our innovative drug discovery strategy. We look forward to engaging with leading researchers and science in the space as we prepare to enter the clinic early next year. 💻 Register and learn more about the world’s largest neuroscience conference here: https://lnkd.in/d53mNcsW 🧠 Stop by our poster sessions to learn more about our work to bring forward best-in-class, novel therapies for #CNS diseases. We hope to see you in Chicago! #Neuroscience2024 #DrugDiscovery #Anxiety #Epilepsy #Biotech
