We believe mental health is key to whole human health and the health of society
Why are we in a global mental health crisis, when science is more advanced than ever? We don’t believe there is a single problem, nor a single solution.
In an increasingly challenging world, we see the need for a multi-faceted approach to unlock the root causes of mental illness, while implementing efficient and responsible systemic solutions that meet people where they are. Our targets are broad, spanning neuropsychiatry, neurodegeneration, pain, substance use, sleep, and other areas related to the central nervous system.
We back innovators who share our vision of a happier and more connected world.
Together, we have the potential to create a better ecosystem to nourish us today and our children tomorrow.
