Partnering with an outstanding group of leading institutions to drive forward best-in-class small molecule therapeutics for patients with unmet medical need.
Our current partnerships involve collaborations with various leading academic and government institutions around the world.
Korea Research Institute of Bioscience & Biotechnology (KRIBB)
What was originally established as a Genetic Engineering Research Center in 1985, KRIBB (Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology) now stands as the only government research institute in South Korea dedicated to biotechnology research across a broad span of expertise, including new drug discovery. KRIBB’s mission extends beyond the national scheme, and strives to carry out R&D and other relevant projects within the field of bioscience and biotechnology in joint effort with other research institutes, academia, and businesses at home and abroad. The research institute’s project with Enzychem in debuting EC-18 to the U. S. market is only partially exemplary of its global network that spans all over Europe, the Americas, and all of Asia. Dr. Jae Wha Kim of KRIBB leads Enzychem Lifesciences’ non-clinical studies and is responsible for conducting EC-18’s Mechanism of Action (MOA) study.
