Investing in a startup

Hi everyone,

Apologies if this is the wrong place for this question.

Through some internet sleuthing, I have come across a pharmaceutical startup with a patent on a drug that looks like it could be *very* lucrative. This startup most recently completed Series B financing a couple of years ago. I would like to invest around maybe $50k-$100k of my own money in this startup.

Would it be possible for me to do this? If so, how would I go about doing this?

I meet the SEC definition of an accredited investor.

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
