Our new headquarters provides our employees with a high-tech work environment conducive to collaboration and innovation with improved space and amenities. The space will continue to foster our mission-driven culture committed to discovering and developing medicines that have the potential to transform the lives of people living with neurodegenerative and neurological diseases.'
QurAlis and its landlord, Healthpeak, fully built out and furnished QurAlis' lab and office suite prior to occupancy. QurAlis' new headquarters offers a larger space with enhanced lab and discovery resources and a 5,000 square foot conferencing space for meeting and collaboration. More than one-third of the new facility is dedicated to a state-of-the-art 11,000 square foot lab with an expansive tissue culture suite and addition of an onsite antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) chemistry manufacturing lab to support programs utilizing QurAlis' FlexASO® technology platform. FlexASO® was developed to generate splice-switching ASOs with improved potency, increased therapeutic index and improved bio-distribution. This bespoke platform has the potential to tackle the spectrum of neurodegenerative and neurological diseases.
'Healthpeak welcomes QurAlis to 35 Cambridgepark Drive,' said Scott Bohn, chief development officer and head of lab at Healthpeak. 'QurAlis' need for Class A lab space to progress their groundbreaking neuroscience work aligned seamlessly with our purpose-built life science campus, offering state-of-the-art amenities, a sustainable LEED Gold design, and unbeatable proximity to Alewife Station – an ideal environment for QurAlis' continued innovation and growth.'

Housing inventory surging across the US: Here are the 10 states leading the way
The US housing market is continuing its slow but steady rebalancing, giving buyers more options than they've had in years — but in certain states, there has been a significant increase in inventory. Nevada, Maryland, and North Carolina lead the way in year-over-year inventory growth. 'Nevada has seen a strong uptick in investor seller activity recently, which could be driving listings higher as buyer demand pulls back,' says Hannah Jones, senior economic research analyst for Compared with the same time last year, Nevada has seen a 52.9% increase in the number of homes on the market—the biggest increase of any state. Maryland followed with a 48.2% increase in listings. 'North Carolina saw surging popularity during the pandemic, and is returning to some balance. Maryland has seen less extreme swings in prices and inventory, but is seeing inventory climb recently as buyer demand simmers.' The inventory of homes for sale across the country in July 2025 rose 24.8% year over year—marking the 21st consecutive month of inventory growth and the third consecutive month with over 1 million active listings, according to data. July's inventory reached a new post-pandemic high, though it still sits 13.4% below pre-pandemic levels. But while more homes are available nationwide, certain states are seeing the most dramatic shifts. 3 The US housing inventory in July was up 24.8% year-over-year. Kristina Blokhin – To identify the top 10 states where homes are piling up on the market the most, economists analyzed state-level listing data, ranked by active listing count year-over-year for July 2025. Jones says these market changes come down to both buyer demand and broader economic factors. 'Lower home prices and mortgage rates will be important to bring buyers back into the market. As buyer demand returns, available inventory can supply home shoppers with desirable options,' says Jones. 'However, it will be important for supply to ramp up with demand to endure price growth doesn't pick up once again.' Still, the data shows early signs of a shift. Overall new listings, while higher than last year, declined month over month for a third consecutive time. Homes are also taking longer to sell—a full week more than last July—pushing the national median time on the market above pre-pandemic norms for the first time since 2020, as per the July Housing Report. Some markets are feeling the change more acutely than others. 'We have [an agent] transferring from the Aurora, Colorado, area right now,' Jeff Lichtenstein, the CEO of a family-owned brokerage in South Florida, told 'The Colorado market is getting flooded with listings mainly due to massive appreciation, and now listings are overtaking how many buyers are available. 'The one transferring to Florida said it's so bad that he was forced to take a second job bartending despite having 10+ listings,' says Lichtenstein. 'South Florida saw our tipping point inventory increase a year ago. However, we are now seeing, on the ground, more activity because the amount of 'must sellers' is outweighing the 'must buyers.'' The affordability crunch remains one of the biggest hurdles for buyers nationwide. Since June 2019, the typical list price has jumped 37.6% while the price per square foot has surged nearly 52.3%. 'However, once the market turns, we should see homes go quickly because there still is a shortage. It's just that unaffordability is so great, with rates in the mid-6s and more inflation going on, that consumers just can't afford anything,' says Lichtenstein. For now, buyers in states with the biggest inventory jumps may find more choices and less competition. But economists warn that unless prices and rates ease, many shoppers will remain sidelined. 3 Nevada had the largest increase in active listings since last year. rsgphoto – The 10 states where inventory is piling up 1.
