Biotech hedge fund launches new immunology company

Sep 17, 2026

In September 2024, Adar1 Capital analyst Mohit Gupta pitched an idea to Dan Schneeberger in Austin, Texas, to launch a new company focused on developing a long-acting antibody treatment for atopic dermatitis. This proposal represents a shift in strategy for Schneeberger, whose primary role at the biotech hedge fund is investing in existing drug-development companies rather than starting new ones from the ground up.
