Acumen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. - Company Profile

Acumen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biotechnology startup founded in 1996 and based in the United States. The company is dedicated to forging a new path towards safe and effective treatments for Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. Their focus on the biology of toxic soluble amyloid-beta oligomers sets them apart in the industry. The founders have made seminal discoveries and developed methods to understand the role of toxic amyloid-beta oligomers (Aβo) in synaptic dysfunction and neurodegeneration. This invaluable expertise has fueled decades of research on the biology of Aβo at Acumen and across the field. With a $50.00M post-IPO debt investment from K2 HealthVentures as of 13 November 2023, Acumen Pharmaceuticals is on the cusp of realizing the therapeutic potential of Aβo targeted drugs.
