## About

Founded in 2022 and based in California, US, TippingPoint Biosciences, Inc. is a therapeutic company that provides a drug discovery platform focused on developing treatments for diseases caused by DNA defects. Laura Hsieh (CEO) and Geeta J. Narlikar are the co-founders of the company. In March 2026, TippingPoint Biosciences, Inc. raised USD 4.5 million in seed funding co-led by SOSV and LKS Capital, with participation from Sazze Partners, Freeflow Ventures, StoryHouse Ventures, XEIA Venture Partners, WeCAN, Sontag Foundation, and  BrightEdge Ventures.

The company focuses on therapies for diseases driven by dysfunctional chromatin networks. TippingPoint's approach targets diseases that arise from chromatin dysfunction, such as pediatric diffuse midline glioma (DMG), a condition that has proven challenging to treat with therapies. The firm has developed a method to replicate disease-causing chromatin interactions in a controlled environment, allowing them to target these aberrant networks.

The company plans to utilize the March 2026 funding to develop its epigenetic drug platform, advance proof-of-concept studies in Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma, and broaden discovery efforts.
