Company Overview:

Paratus Sciences (www.paratussciences.com) is a biotech startup dedicated to improving human health through an understanding of bat biology. We focus on identifying and developing groundbreaking therapeutics for a myriad of diseases by unlocking the secrets of the bat genome. The company received $100 million Series A financing in 2021.

In addition to powered flight, bats have evolved the ability to control inflammation, tolerate viral infection, resist cancer, accept extreme diets, and live exceptionally long lives for a mammal of their size. However, the elusive lifestyle of bats coupled with a lack of scientific tools and reagents has made the study of these extraordinary animals difficult and slow going. We are developing the tools and methods necessary to understand the extreme and unique attributes of bat biology and apply these insights to identify and develop new therapies to address some of the most challenging health issues facing humankind.
