      <Desc>ALTIUS DIRECTLY CONDUCTS AN ACTIVE AND MULTIFACETED PROGRAM OF BIOTECHNOLOGY RESEARCH. WE CONDUCT A CONSIDERABLE MAJORITY OF RESEARCH PROGRAMS DIRECTLY IN OUR OWN RESEARCH LABORATORY FACILITY, LOCATED IN SEATTLE. THE MEDICAL RESEARCH ORGANIZATION PROGRAM IS INTENDED TO GENERATE, DEVELOP AND TRANSLATE TO CLINICAL USE REGULATORY GENOMIC AND OTHER TECHNOLOGIES THAT HAVE TRANSFORMATIVE POTENTIAL IN BASIC BIOLOGY, BIOMEDICINE AND PHARMACEUTICAL DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION. INITIAL EFFORTS OF OUR RESEARCH PROGRAM FOCUS ON DEVELOPING A RICHER UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN CELL MODELS, TARGETS AND MECHANISMS, FOR THE PURPOSE OF DEVELOPING NEW THERAPIES FOR DISEASE. TO THIS END, THE ORGANIZATION WILL FOCUS DEVELOPMENT ON DRIVING THE SCALING AND TRANSLATIONAL VALIDATION OF EXISTING CUTTING EDGE RESEARCH PLATFORMS, INCLUDING REGULATORY GENOMIC ANALYSES AND GENOME ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGIES. REGULATORY GENOMIC ANALYSIS YIELDS A HIGH-CONTENT, QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF INDIVIDUAL REGULATORY ELEMENTS, WHICH PROVIDES HIGHLY SENSITIVE MARKERS OF CELLULAR RESPONSE TO DISEASE AND TO CURRENT AND PAST DRUG EXPOSURES. SUCH ASSESSMENTS INFORM WHAT TISSUE AND TARGET TO STUDY, HOW TO MODULATE A DRUG TARGET, ANTICIPATE OFF-TARGET EFFECTS, AND PROTOTYPE DRUG TREATMENT EFFECTS.</Desc>
