Cerevance is a biopharmaceutical startup that operates in the healthcare sector, specifically focusing on neurological disorders. The company is dedicated to developing novel therapies for brain diseases such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's. Its primary clients are patients suffering from these neurological conditions. The company's business model revolves around research, development, and commercialization of innovative drugs.
