Five Alarm Bio

Company that develops drugs to slow down the ageing process

Anti-aging science has enormous potential. Age-related diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases are among the leading causes of death and a significant burden on health funding.

Five Alarm Bio is developing a small molecule approach to boost the body’s defence to aging, based on a new understanding of how the chemical damage associated with age accumulates in cells. In addition to a broad range of age-related diseases, Five Alarm Bio sees relevance of its platform for cosmeceuticals.

Founded in 2016 by three experienced entrepreneurs, Five Alarm Bio is based near Cambridge, UK, and is carrying out research at the Babraham Campus.
