Locus Pharmaceuticals is a pharmaceutical company focused on developing novel, small molecule therapeutics to address major unmet medical needs. Locus utilizes powerful and proprietary computational technologies running on Linux-based supercomputer clusters to simultaneously identify relevant binding sites on protein disease targets and rapidly generate novel, small molecules that bind specifically to those protein sites.
