Science funded by the women it serves.

A generally unknown fact is that women's health has been chronically underfunded for decades. From academia, venture to industry the reason you go to a doctor and they don’t have options for you is because we have not done the research. AthenaBIO is changing that by putting funding power directly into the hands of the people it affects most.

FAQs

What is AthenaBIO?

AthenaBIO is a new model for funding women's health research.
Instead of relying only on traditional grants or venture capital, AthenaBIO brings together a community of supporters who help fund and guide the science that matters most.
Our goal is simple: accelerate breakthroughs in women's health by aligning researchers, supporters, and investors around the same mission.

Why focus specifically on women's health?

Despite representing half the global population, women's health research has historically received a small fraction of biomedical funding.
Entire areas of female biology remain under-studied, leading to slower progress in diagnosis, treatment, and innovation.
AthenaBIO exists to change that by directing capital, attention, and scientific effort toward the areas that have been overlooked for far too long.

What is ATH?

ATH is the governance token of the AthenaBIO ecosystem. It allows supporters to help fund research and participate in decision-making about which scientific projects AthenaBIO supports. By holding ATH tokens, users gain voting rights on research proposals and funding allocations, giving the community a direct voice in shaping AthenaBIO’s research priorities.

Where does the money go?

Funds raised through AthenaBIO support several key areas:
• Research grants for women's health projects
• Early-stage biotech research and spin-outs
• Scientific infrastructure and collaboration
• Education and global access initiatives
Our goal is to ensure funding flows directly toward meaningful scientific progress.

Can I support AthenaBIO with a small donation?

Absolutely.
Even small contributions help accelerate research and demonstrate public demand for progress in women's health.
Whether it's $5 or $500, every contribution helps move the science forward.

Is my donation tax deductible?

Tax deductibility may be available depending on your country and the structure of your contribution.

I'm an investor. How can I get involved?
