UNITY Biotechnology
Biotechnology company devoted to research of restoring human health
UNITY Biotechnology is developing therapeutics to extend healthspan by slowing, halting or reversing diseases of aging. UNITY's initial focus is on creating senolytic medicines to selectively eliminate senescent cells and thereby treat age-related diseases, such as osteoarthritis, eye diseases and pulmonary diseases.
Working at the frontier of biotechnology and medicine, our mission is to develop therapeutics to extend the period of one’s life unburdened by disease. Our initial focus is on delivering localized therapy in ophthalmologic diseases, including diabetic macular edema and age-related macular degeneration, and age-related neurologic conditions.
