☆ This biotech hedge fund has elite clients like Yale’s endowment, Tisch. Here are its top bets

Baker Bros. Advisors, a secretive hedge fund that counts Yale University's endowment and the Tisch family as its clients, held onto a slew of its favorite biotech names last quarter. Its portfolio has grown to be the 15th-biggest among U.S. hedge funds through 2022, according to FactSet, despite its lack of notoriety. The hedge fund specializes in biotech investing as the founders, now in their 50s, take advantage of their educational background in immunology, riding on the explosive growth in the sector over the past decade. Meanwhile, Yale's charitable foundation has invested in 667 LP — a Baker Bros. vehicle — since at least 2009. The hedge fund slightly increased its exposure to Madrigal Pharmaceuticals and Rhythm Pharmaceuticals last quarter, the filing showed.
