Alzheimer’s disease has a significant unmet medical need for
which current treatment options are insufficient. Suven has a
number of discovery programs in the area of cognition, focusing on
novel approaches that may lead to the development of new therapies
for patients.
Suven is committed to neuroscience research and for development of
new treatments for neurological disorders. Suven’s discovery
research focuses on Central Nervous System (CNS) disorders through
novel mechanisms using small-molecule medicinal chemistry
approaches. Suven’s CNS drug discovery scientists at
Hyderabad, India are pursuing innovative ways to develop treatments
for a variety of CNS disorders like Alzheimer's, Schizophrenia,
Depression, Cognitive disorders, Sleep, Neurodegeneration and
Obesity through CNS targets.
