Muna Therapeutics raised $75M in 2024 targeting microglial biology in Alzheimer's disease, using iPSC-derived microglia models to identify novel drug targets that modulate brain immune function.
Muna Therapeutics focuses on microglial biology — the specialized immune cells of the brain — as the key to developing disease-modifying Alzheimer's therapies beyond amyloid targeting. The company uses induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived microglia as disease models to identify and validate novel drug targets implicated by Alzheimer's genetics (TREM2, PLCG2, BIN1, APOE). This platform enables the company to study microglial dysfunction at scale and run drug screens against human-relevant cellular models.
Saluda Medical is the pioneer of closed-loop spinal cord stimulation (SCS); FDA-approved Evoke SCS system with real-time neural feedback; raised $100M in Jan 2025; received FDA clearance for automated EVA programming platform.
Saluda Medical is a commercial-stage medical device company that has pioneered closed-loop neuromodulation therapy for chronic pain management. Headquartered in Macquarie Park, Australia (with US operations in Marlborough, Massachusetts), Saluda''s flagship product is the Evoke Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) System — the world''s first SCS system that senses and measures neural responses to stimulation (evoked compound action potentials, or ECAPs) and automatically adjusts therapy in real time based on each patient''s neurophysiological feedback. This closed-loop approach provides more precise, consistent pain relief compared to conventional open-loop SCS systems.
