Arena is rethinking drug discovery and development— harnessing AI and human biology to deliver breakthrough medicines for patients with devastating diseases.
Where Bold Science Meets Lasting Impact: Celebrating Discoveries That Inspire Arena BioWorks’ Commitment to Creativity and Innovation https://t.co/1OhL2PDmsb
Congrats again to Arena founder and CSO @SchreiberStuart and @scrippsresearch President Dr. Peter Schultz, honored this week for discoveries that reshaped how we understand human biology. Learn more about their impact here: https://t.co/1OhL2PCOCD
Dr. Stuart L. Schreiber and Dr. Peter G. Schultz, the 2025 recipients of the prestigious Robert A. Welch Award in Chemistry, were honored at the Welch Award Reception and Dinner on October 27th, 2025 at The Post Oak Hotel at Uptown Houston.
Tune in virtually Oct 27–28 for the 2025 Welch Conference—which includes our own @SchreiberStuart and Dr. Peter Schultz!
Hosted by @kevansf, with leading scientists exploring “New Horizons in Drug Discovery.”

Dialogue with Scientists: chemical biology pioneer Dr. Stuart L. Schreiber explains how molecular glues—which "glue" two proteins together—are behind transformative medicines for cystic fibrosis & cancer. https://t.co/U4ElNbJpyW @SchreiberStuart@WelchFoundation@Harvard
Rajat has lived in Delhi, Mumbai, Munich, Copenhagen, New York, San Diego, and now Boston, becoming an absolute whiz at mass spec along the way. Now he roams the vast terrains of cell surfaces to discover hidden targets for new medicines.
Creating relevant models to test therapeutic hypotheses in human disease biology is a heavy lift. Luckily, Zvi Cramer is a powerlifter in his spare time. He's not one to flex, but it's apparent to all that both his vocation and hobby have forged an impressive mental fortitude.
Arena welcomes @HarveyJBerger as Chairman & CEO, joining Founder & CSO @schreiberstuart to advance our mission. By incorporating causal mechanisms of human disease, we are building a new model for discovering and developing breakthrough medicines. https://t.co/CPYWujXvxI
We are delighted to see our own @SchreiberStuart recognized for his pioneering work in chemical biology, which has yielded decades of impact and much more to come! Congrats Stuart and Dr. Peter G. Schultz on receiving the @WelchFoundation#WelchAward
The Welch Foundation is pleased to announce the 2025 Welch Award in Chemistry recipients: Dr. Stuart L. Schreiber of @Harvard and Arena BioWorks, and Dr. Peter G. Schultz of @scrippsresearch.
Both are being recognized for their groundbreaking contributions to the field of chemical biology. Dr. Schreiber is honored for his profound discoveries using chemical probes to understand the chemical machinery of the cell and for developing therapies based on this knowledge. Dr. Schultz is recognized for his pioneering contributions to creating new letters in the alphabet of life, and the leveraging of chemical diversity to discover novel therapeutics and materials.
Each will receive a $500,000 award this October in recognition of their lasting impact in the field of chemistry. Learn more about their work and the award at

Under this ownership group, the Celtics won two championships and built a culture of camaraderie and resilience. Steve's deep loyalty to Boston makes him a champion both on and off the court, leaving a legacy that will forever inspire Celtics fans and Bostonians alike.
We love to spotlight those team members with roles whose visibility runs counter to their success. The smoother the lab runs, the easier it is to forget that people like Suzannah, with her no-nonsense, can-do demeanor, are the backbone of everything we are doing here.
Congrats to the winners of the Stuart L. Schreiber Prize in Scientific Excellence presented at the @broadinstitute 's annual retreat! @JiaqiZhangVic (top) won for outstanding work on causal inference AI and @Smriti__Pandey (bottom) for pushing the frontiers of genome editing.
Arena co-founder @SchreiberStuart, together with Doug Melton and Michael Mina, talked to @HarvardMagazine about recognizing an opportunity to transform medicine by overcoming inherent inefficiencies in the current ecosystem.

It's been a year of growth for Arena, so we were delighted to strengthen bonds and forge new ones while flexing our arcade skills at the holiday party. As we look ahead to the next year, Arena's focus continues to be human-biology-first. Emphasis on human.
Dave is a dreamer and a doodler who won our first t-shirt design contest, but you won't find him at the back of the class. His laid-back vibe belies a mind bursting with ideas and insights that challenge, inspire, and fuel an infectious desire to turn them into hope for patients.
Ziyi Chen and Alex Wolff popped over from Arena to talk about challenges in predicting protein binding to small molecules at Connecting the Dots: Biology at Scale in the Age of AI, hosted by @broadinstitute.
Dara Leto exudes the gentle selflessness of a true dog person. But when it comes to finding opportunities to reach across disciplines and form meaningful collaborations, she is as tenacious as the objects of her affection and has just as good a nose for finding worthwhile paths.
First-time dad Travis Blum knows that bringing something new into the world is hard, messy work, and about the most rewarding thing a person can do. He reaches beyond his job description to help in any way he can, his apologetic smile forever signaling regret for time's finitude.
Nicole, like many, charted her course during the Great Recession. Opting to forgo a Ph.D. (you'd never guess), she forged on to become a leader in computational biology—most recently at Pfizer—while building a family. She is thrilled to see today's buffet of post-Ph.D. options.
Congrats to the team at Jnana Tx! Founding team includes our own founding CEO @schreiberstuart. Jnana's story is a powerful example of the importance of understanding the mechanisms of human disease and finding the right clinical biomarkers. Big step closer to reaching patients.
