We are a movement
in muscle
At Edgewise, we appreciate the life-limiting impact of serious muscle diseases. We are committed to helping people and families living with them by pursuing a new era of muscle-focused medicines with patients at the center.
Unique muscle diseases require a unique mindset
That’s why we built Edgewise differently. We seek to pursue lines of scientific inquiry around muscle pathology, starting with the patient need, that are unique, powerful, and elegant. We commit ourselves to asking new questions and finding new therapeutic answers for muscle diseases with life-limiting impact. We chose Boulder, Colorado, for our headquarters, establishing an entirely new life science nexus that encourages creative thinking, sound science, and capitalizes on the vast talent the state and nearby institutions have to offer.
We follow the science
Muscle biology is integral and complex. Every day, we follow science where it leads us to bring the vast potential of muscle-targeted therapeutics to the lives of those who need it most. Our way of working starts with the patient and their unmet need then we look to science to solve the problem for the communities we serve.
Patients are at the core
of our mission
We recognize that for people and families facing serious muscle diseases, every day without effective medicine is a day too late. This urgency is what drives us to think harder, dig deeper, and continue pursuing what we believe are potentially life-changing medicines that help preserve and protect muscle function.
