A Close-Knit Team Tackling Big Challenges
Our team of over 90 scientists and supporting professionals bring their passion and diverse expertise to a small, cross-disciplinary company dedicated to tackling big challenges. Together, we bring the creative energy of a Silicon Valley startup and the unified drive of a pharmaceutical company to bring life-changing therapies to patients. Born out of the mission to cure cancer with a single shot, we are now building upon our learnings from successful development of targeted oncolytic viruses in partnership with Regeneron, Mayo Clinic and others to realize the next generation of targeted in vivo genetic medicines with our partners.
Collaboration Drives Innovation
At Vyriad, the challenges we face are complex, the work pace is fast, and constant innovation allows us to re-imagine what we are able to achieve. Our experience has taught us that success requires both skill and teamwork. That’s why we combine world-class science with cross functional teams that span preclinical development, manufacturing and clinical expertise. All of this makes for an exhilarating environment of collaboration and discovery.
Striving for Excellence, Driving Results
Our ability to tackle the big challenges in viral delivery lies in our diverse knowledge and our drive to learn more – about the science, about the logistics, about our patients and about each other. Being question-askers allows us to be problem-solvers – so that we can set our expectations high and deliver results.
