Disease Areas

Driven by Patients


Therapeutic Areas of Focus

Inspired by the courage and determination of individuals living with complicated and often difficult-to-treat diseases, our focus is on applying our three decades of experience in neuroscience to address significant unmet needs in psychiatric and neurological disorders. Guided by our values of great science, deep compassion and real impact, we aim to make a meaningful difference for people living with serious chronic diseases in the areas of addiction, serious mental illness and sleep disorders.

We have been at the forefront of addiction medicine for nearly two decades, seeking to help people living with alcohol dependence and opioid dependence.

Sleep Disorders

We are actively researching potential new treatment options for people living with narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia, sleep disorders which impair regulation of the sleep-wake cycle and can take an immense toll on daily life.
