About Us

Patient-Inspired.
Precision-Engineered.

One MG patient’s story sparked Canopy’s mission: replacing broad immunosuppression with targeted immune reprogramming designed to deliver durable, disease-modifying remission.

Natalie’s Story

When Treatment Becomes the Threat

At 26, Natalie, an Electrical Engineering student, developed life-threatening pneumonia secondary to the immunosuppressive therapies used to manage her Myasthenia Gravis. Her story reflects the reality faced by millions of autoimmune patients forced to choose between disease burden and dangerous side effects.

Inspired by Natalie, Canopy was founded to solve the challenge she and millions of other patients face.

Our First Principles Approach

Rebuilding Autoimmune Treatment
from the Ground Up

“We’re not looking for incremental improvement. Aspirational, but we’re aiming for cure.”

- Dr. Kfir Oved

Meeting Natalie during medical school inspired a decade-long mission: selectively eliminating disease-causing autoantibodies and cells while preserving protective immunity.

Founded in 2020 by Dr. Kfir Oved, Canopy was founded to develop precision therapies that target the root cause of autoimmune disease without suppressing the immune system.

From day one, the goal was never better immunosuppression, but a fundamentally better, science-driven treatment approach that will provide patients the hope for a healthy future.

Our Mission & Vision

From Symptom Control to Disease Resolution

compass
Our Vision

To redefine autoimmune care by replacing lifelong management with durable, treatment-free remission and a true cure.

Our Mission

To develop the first-in-class, non-immunosuppressive, potentially curative therapies for antibody-mediated autoimmune diseases.

Our Values

Listen Deeply. Act Boldly

01

Lean.

We move fast, stay focused, and invest effort only where it meaningfully advances patients and science.

02

Humble.

Autoimmune biology is complex. We let the data lead, respect uncertainty, and listen closely to patients, collaborators, and science itself.

03

Decisive.

We take bold, disciplined risks to achieve outcomes that incremental thinking cannot deliver while keeping the patients at the center of our goals.
