While pursuing an MD/PhD at UCLA, Zhang was shocked to learn a fact every drug researcher knows all too well: 90% of medicines that start human studies fail. "It's still largely a guessing game," she says.

Her startup, Verge Genomics, is the latest in a long line of biotechs that think merging the latest in computer science with new technologies for decoding the human genetic code can provide a solution. What's special: Verge has the guts to target Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, areas most drug companies have abandoned as hopeless.
