Really interesting things happening in this space. Artan raised $300K through a governance token to fund experiments. The current valuation of the coin is around $11M. This is done through a decentralized science and transparent framework and the community has rights and privileges to guide the project. If you’re a researcher or company with an idea and $100K-$300K gets your somewhere meaningful, I suggest looking into this.

I recently attended Frontiers Health . It was a super interesting event; the first time I'd been to one of these bigger, more formal conferences. Moreover, it was particularly interesting because, in many ways, what we're building at Molecule AG aims to completely disrupt the work most of these people do day-to-day. Despite this, those same people light up when you get to the meat of what we're trying to accomplish. All of them remain certain technology is the tool for progress, and web3 is another layer to that (and one that I believe is inevitable!). Some honorable mentions: Click Therapeutics, Inc. who is building software as prescription medicine dacadoo on digital health solutions Inceptive creating tools for biological software Thanks to Nana Bit-Avragim (she/her) for the invite. Also shoutout to Logan Bishop-Currey for being the best conf buddy and killing it on stage. Kk, that's all from me!

We talk a lot about accelerating science in DeSci. But what does this actually look like? DeSci's impact on initial funding for drug discovery is clear, but there is another crucial step in bringing a drug to market: Preclinical Studies. And it's with preclinical studies that DeSci can set a new standard. 🔬 Traditional drug development often takes over a decade, with a lot of effort focused on clinical trials. But we can dramatically speed up the preclinical stage, making it more efficient and sustainable, with DeSci. The current state of preclinical studies: 🔹 Identifying & Validating Targets 🔹 Optimizing Lead Compounds 🔹 Testing Safety & Toxicity 🔹 Studying Pharmacokinetics These crucial steps lay the foundation for drug development, and there is a lot of room for improvement. DeSci is disrupting and accelerating preclinical research by: 🔹 Directing resources to high-impact research 🔹 Making decisions transparent with IP-NFT & IPT governance 🔹 Enhancing collaboration by sharing data 🔹 Accelerating target identification 🔹 Improving reproducibility This transformation brings unprecedented opportunities: For Researchers 🔬 - Unlocks access to funding - Provides faster testing pathways - Reduces early-stage research delays For Institutions 🏛️ - Acts as a risk-mitigation tool for pharma - Offers transparent, capital-efficient funding models - Supports and sustains innovative research For Funders 🤝 - Democratizes access to scientific research - Enables anyone to fund and participate in world-changing research through IPTs DeSci doesn't just improve drug discovery—it transforms it. By building tools to optimize preclinical studies, we're tackling one of the biggest bottlenecks in R&D. Our aim? To bring new treatments to patients faster than ever through collaboration and efficient systems. The future of drug discovery is decentralized, transparent, and lightning-fast. Are you ready to be part of this revolution?

Zelar City comes at Molecule AG DeSci Church! This Sat and Sun we discuss Decentralized Science and Network states! Join us! https://lu.ma/4spe1nm5 Victoria Forest , Laurence Ion , Elias Schlie 🚀🚀🚀

#DeSci and #NetworkStates Summit Day 1 at DeSci Church with Molecule AG This place is the perfect blend of art and science. The conversations are thought-provoking, and people are curious and open to changing the status quo 🔥 Zelar City has reached its halfway mark! Don’t miss the 3 remaining weekend summits. Check out the weekly themes at https://zelar.city

Over this weekend, there were two amazing Zelar City summits on Decentralized Science (DeSci) and Network States in #longevity 🖥️💉 The talks and workshops of the speakers as well as presented ideas and projects on the impact of decentralized science on rapid research development in medicine were extremely insighful! The implications of novel regulations in healthcare, the emergence of pop-up cities (maybe even countries? Liberland ), and the creation of global networks that further collaboration between researchers across the globe—all of these aspirations can help us advance life sciences and foster longevity among a larger public. Thank you so much, Victoria Forest , Laurence Ion , Alexey Strygin , and Elias Schlie , Mark Kagach for being such a fascinating team with whom it is such a pleasure to work 🙌 Also, huge thanks to the whole Molecule AG team for welcoming Zelar City to spread the knowledge about the potential behind #DeSci ! Zelar City will continue gathering longevity enthusiasts from all across the world in Berlin for the next 3 weeks! Our next summit will be about Health Optimization and AI: https://lu.ma/omxsp5xu Come and join us in our mission to extend human lifespan!

There's a lot of excitement in crypto around Real-World Assets (RWAs). However, unlike loans and bonds, IP is the ultimate meta-RWA—an asset perfect for tokenization. What are IPTs? Intellectual Property Tokens (IPTs) are fungible governance tokens of an IP-NFT (a tokenized representation of IP). They're transforming how research IP is managed, governed, and monetized—enabling open-source collaboration without losing commercial opportunity. Onchain science is already underway & making incredible strides. And VitaDAO is leading the charge with two remarkable projects combating age-related diseases: VitaFAST: The first-ever IPT funding longevity science 🧪 VitaFAST enables governance of the Viktor Korolchuk Lab IP-NFT, a project focused on discovering novel autophagy enhancers (think "fasting!"). Last year, the VitaDAO community raised over $300,000 to continue the lab's research! VitaRNA: Groundbreaking Gene Therapy 🧬 VitaRNA tokenizes the ARTAN Bio IP-NFT—exploring the promising field of gene therapies that could help address aging-related genetic factors. The VitaDAO community also raised $300,000 to continue Artan Bio's research into their AAV9-based gene therapy. What do IPTs mean for scientific innovation? 🧪 IPTs help accelerate research by aligning incentives around a community of stakeholders that have an opportunity to govern IP and contribute to the research itself. IPTs are the future of scientific innovation, and VitaFAST & VitaRNA are proving just how powerful onchain science is ⛓️🔬 Ready to get involved? 🤝 Connect with the teams: VitaFAST: vitafast.xyz VitaRNA: vitarna.xyz
