Company Summary

Lime Therapeutics is a biotech company turning “bad fat biology” into a drug target, not just a lab curiosity. Using its platform, Lime can watch how fats behave inside cells in real time, then find weak spots and design medicines that fix the underlying problem. Because lipid dysfunction increases with age, this approach is especially powerful for age‑related diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer’s, and other metabolic disorders.
