Passion for patients, science and collaboration

When our scientific founders established Secarna Pharmaceuticals in 2015, they pursued an ambitious goal: to develop oligonucleotide therapies that transform untreatable conditions into treatable ones, profoundly changing the future of medicine. This is what still motivates us every day.

Our journey is powered by a deep passion for our innovative and visionary science, coupled with a firm belief in the transformative power of collaboration. At Secarna, we blend outstanding scientific expertise with a dynamic and cooperative culture. We're committed to nurturing our team's growth, fostering a culture of open dialogue and welcoming new ideas. By challenging the status quo and embracing innovation, we pave the way for groundbreaking advancements.

As a driven professional, I particularly enjoy using our OligoCreator platform to develop best-in-class oligonucleotide therapeutics for the benefit of patient’s lives, globally.
