Notes

Merida Biosciences is a biotechnology company pioneering precision immunology approaches for the treatment of antibody-driven autoimmune diseases. The company's technology platform is designed to selectively eliminate pathogenic B cells—the source of disease-causing autoantibodies—while preserving the protective immune cells that fight infections.

This precision approach aims to provide durable remissions for patients with autoimmune diseases without the immunosuppression associated with broad B cell depletion therapies.
