ReFOLD Bio

  • 2026
  • Enabling Technology
  • Therapeutics
  • Venture Challenge
ReFOLD Bio discovers gene editing targets for protein misfolding diseases that affect hundreds of millions of patients worldwide. ReFOLD identifies novel refolding edits that restore protein function without correcting the original mutation. This approach unlocks a blue ocean: patients carrying mutations that no existing gene therapy can address. Targets are validated directly in patient-derived organoids, producing assets with substantially higher translational confidence than industry standard.
