About Bowhead Health
Bowhead advances its own research and supports partner programs across two connected areas: AI and clinical research, and glycoscience. Our team brings scientific, regulatory and operating expertise to move promising work forward.
Our approach
Promising science can stall when funding runs out or business priorities change. We acquire selected assets and continue their development, building on research already completed.
