Rapport Therapeutics Inc is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovery and development of transformational small-molecule medicines for patients suffering from central nervous system disorders. Its foundational science has elucidated the complexities of neuronal receptor biology and enables the company to map and target certain neuronal receptor complexes. Neuronal receptors are complex assemblies of proteins, comprising receptor principal subunits and their receptor-associated proteins (RAPs), the latter of which play crucial roles in regulating receptor expression and function.

Lithium Americas is a pure-play lithium producer. Following a deal with the US government, the firm will own 59% of one resource, Thacker Pass, which is located in northwest Nevada, with automaker General Motors owning 36% and the US government owning 5%. Thacker Pass is under construction and expected to begin production in 2028. Thacker Pass is one of the largest known lithium resources in the world. The project would be the first clay-based asset to enter production, and we estimate it will be in bottom half of the global cost curve. Management plans to develop Thacker Pass into a fully integrated lithium production site, with downstream refining capabilities on site, and will sell into the lithium chemical market.
