BrilliantStrings Therapeutics' mission is to dramatically accelerate and improve the quality of healing of the toughest connective tissue injuries to bring relief to millions of patients who would otherwise suffer unnecessarily. BrilliantStrings technology is a first-in-class, direct protein mechanotherapeutic that derives from 20 years of research that has upended our general understanding of how load-bearing tissues are initially formed, subsequently remodeled, maintained over time, and how they fail. The "brilliant string"in our story is the most abundant and important structural molecule in vertebrates: collagen. Functional collagen, delivered in a controlled way, under the right mechanical conditions, has the potential to repair tissue quite rapidly. Our product is a cell-engineered, human collagen, packaged into a proprietary injectable liquid crystal that can be applied to injuries to facilitate their repair.
