We are excited to announce the appointment of Dr. Sanjay Keswani, MD, BSc, FRCP, as our President and Chief Executive Officer. Dr. Keswani is an accomplished physician-scientist with executive leadership experience in both large pharma and small biotech companies. His leadership and drug development experience and expertise will be important drivers in the growth of ImmunoBrain as we progress our drug development efforts.

Excited to share a Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News interview with our co-founder and CSO Prof. Michal Schwartz, and Medical Director Dr. Tommaso Croese, describing the complexity of #alzheimersdisease and how the novel therapeutic approach of ImmunoBrain Checkpoint may be key for treating this disease

Our co-founder and CSO, Professor Michal Schwartz, is on this month’s cover of Forbes in Hebrew, featuring the 50 most influential women in science and technology of 2023

We are excited to have James Mackay join our Board of Directors. His leadership and global drug development experience in biopharma will be significant and supportive in our growth

Happy to announce we dosed our first two patients in the Phase 1b First In Human clinical trial investigating ImmunoBrain’s lead program, IBC-Ab002 for patients with early Alzheimer’s disease.

For its 25th anniversary Nature Neuroscience set down for a conversation with Professor Schwartz, as a leader in her field and winner of the 2023 Israel Prize in Life Sciences.

Excited to share that our co-founder and CSO Prof. Michal Schwartz, our Medical Director Dr. Tommaso Croese, and their colleagues at the Weizmann Institute published a review on Science titled “Transforming the understanding of brain immunity,” showcasing much of the evidence behind our novel therapeutic approach

We are very happy and excited to share that ImmunoBrain Checkpoint’s co-founder and CSO, Professor Michal Schwartz, is this year’s recipient of the Israel Prize in Life Sciences. The Israel Prize is the most important and prestigious prize of the State of Israel

We are excited to see a new #Nature paper by Prof. David Holtzman research group, showing the critical role of the adaptive immune response in neurodegeneration. The authors show, using different immune interventions in mouse models of amyloid and tauopathy, how interactions between T cells and microglia can shape and control development of brain pathology. In this context, the authors tested anti-PD-1 administration as a therapeutic intervention and show decrease in tau-mediated neurodegeneration and brain pathology which was associated with increased recruitment of regulatory T cells to the brain. These findings are in line with our preclinical research, suggesting PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint blockade as a therapeutic approach for neurodegenerative diseases.

Neuron dedicated an issue to the very important topic of brain-immune system relationships, and features a review article by Professor Michal Schwartz, who pioneered this field.

As featured in a new Nature publication, a shift in understanding of the role of immunity in brain function has been led by our co-founder and CSO, Prof. Michal Schwartz
