Institute of Endocrinology, Metabolism, and Reproduction

Institute of Endocrinology, Metabolism, and Reproduction (IEMYR) is a Quito, Ecuador-based endocrinology and metabolic medicine organization associated with the long-running clinical and research work of Jaime Guevara-Aguirre. The entity appears to operate primarily as a medical practice and hormonal/diagnostic laboratory rather than as a venture-backed drug-development biotech company. IEMYR is best known in the scientific literature for its work on growth hormone insensitivity, especially Laron syndrome cohorts in Ecuador, and for related endocrinology, metabolism, and reproductive health research. Publicly available business directory data also indicate a commercial legal entity in Ecuador, Medicina Metabólica y de Crecimiento IEMYR S.A., operating in the medical and diagnostic laboratory sector. Because the available sources are sparse and partly indirect, IEMYR is best characterized as an active healthcare and clinical research organization rather than a pharma or biotech developer.
