Under an international innovation subsidy granted by SenterNovem, an agency of the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs, DNage has initiated a project with the Eberhard Karls University in Tubingen Germany, and Pyxis Discovery, to design new drug development tools aimed at discovery of new therapeutics to treat (premature) ageing diseases.
In addition, DNage will collaborate with the Leiden University Medical Center to identify unique biomarkers of such diseases that will facilitate the clinical development of new therapies. The consortium has been granted a SenterNovem subsidy of E905,000 for a period of three years.
