The Eisai Center for Genetics Guided Dementia Discovery, or G2D2, will be located in Cambridge, Mass. Research at the center will focus on using insights from genomic and other data to look for novel immunotherapy treatments beyond the traditional amyloid beta- and tau-based drugs used to treat dementia.
The center will also house several new internship and training programs and the company’s first incubator program. The Eisai Incubator for NeuroDiscovery will provide research space and guidance to Cambridge-based startup and spinout biotech companies attempting to create breakthrough neuroscience treatments.
