Spyryx Biosciences was formed in 2013 by our scientific founder, Dr. Robert Tarran, based on his discovery of a previously unknown mechanism that the lung uses to regulate fluid on its surface. This mechanism is dysfunctional in the lungs of CF patients due to genetic mutations and is believed to be the root cause of the progressive dehydration that leads to the unfortunate cycle of mucus accumulation, bacterial colonization, immune response and tissue scarring, loss of lung function, and often early death.

McLennan County was created by the Texas Legislature in 1850 out of Milam County, and is named for Neil McLennan, an early settler. The county seat, Waco, had been founded originally as an outpost of the Texas Rangers, laid out by George Erath, and was known by 1850 as "Waco Village." According to local lore, the first sustained flight did not occur in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, but just outside Tokio, a small community in McLennan County, by a man flying a gyrocopter.
