Neuronascent, Inc. is a small biopharmaceutical company based in Clarksville, Maryland, focused on developing disease-modifying therapies for chronic neurodegenerative disorders. Using an internally developed screening approach, it has identified oral small-molecule candidates that can induce the formation of new neurons and support their maturation and function under neurodegenerative conditions, with supporting results in human neuronal cells and animal disease models. Its lead program targets Alzheimer's disease and potentially Parkinson's disease, and early testing indicates the candidate was safe in a first-in-human Phase 1a trial in healthy aged subjects. Additionally, Neuronascent is advancing NNI-351 for fragile X syndrome and related developmental delays. In April 2023, Emer Leahy joined the company's Board of Directors.
