**Biology Models
**About BioMed X**
BioMed X is an independent research institute with sites in Heidelberg, Germany, New Haven,
Connecticut, XSeed Labs in Ridgefield, Connecticut, and a world-wide network of partner locations.
We operate at the interface between academia and industry, performing biomedical research and drug
discovery & development in the fields of oncology, immunology, neuroscience, platform technologies,
and artificial intelligence. All our research projects are sponsored by leading pharmaceutical
companies and conducted by early-career scientists recruited from the best schools around the world.
The combination of global crowdsourcing with local incubation of the best research talents and ideas
allows us to solve the biggest challenges in biomedical research. We stand for free, creative, and
curiosity-driven research combined with a solid validation of results, timelines, and deliverables. We
serve a large purpose in advancing translational biomedicine by leveraging synergies and fostering
cross-pollination across disciplines.

**About Team VPE**
The goal of team VPE, led by Dr. Douglas McCloskey, is to develop a versatile computational platform
that can predict the efficacy of first
unprecedented accuracy, thereby addressing one of the most critical bottlenecks of the
In partnership with Sanofi, the VPE team will develop innovative artificial intelligence methods to build
the virtual patient platform. As a proof-of-concept, the initial platform will focus on chronic immune
- mediated diseases such as atopic dermatitis (AD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), where new
medication that can address patient heterogeneity is needed.
