Bexorg is a New Haven techbio company that perfuses donated, postmortem human and pig brains with custom-made artificial blood to restore their molecular and metabolic activity, turning whole organs into living-tissue testbeds for drug discovery. Its BrainEx wet-lab platform and XO Digital AI engine generate petabyte-scale human brain datasets that let pharmaceutical partners test therapies in human-relevant tissue before costly clinical trials - a direct response to the roughly 95% failure rate of central-nervous-system drugs.
Brian Hotchkiss is the Chief Business Officer of Bexorg, a Yale University spinout building the first integrated AI and whole-human-brain platform for central nervous system drug discovery. A chemical engineer turned biotech dealmaker, he spent nearly seven years at Stealth BioTherapeutics shaping corporate strategy and helping land a transformative Alexion collaboration, then served as Chief Business Officer at Protego Biopharma before joining Bexorg. He pairs four graduate-level degrees in engineering, biology, and business with a career spent translating hard science into partnerships, capital, and commercial strategy.
