Congratulations to exteRNA!   We are thrilled to celebrate the incredible achievement of Melbourne-based biotech startup, exteRNA, for securing $11 million in seed funding to advance their groundbreaking cancer therapies. This milestone is a testament to their innovative approach in targeting RNA processing pathways to develop novel small-molecule therapeutics.   Led by the expertise of Professor Vihandha Wickramasinghe of the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre and Professor Guillaume Lessene of WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research), exteRNA is poised to make significant strides in the fight against cancer. Their work exemplifies the cutting-edge research and collaboration that drives Victoria’s biotech community forward.   Through the mRNA Victoria Research Acceleration Fund, mRNA Victoria was proud to support Professor Wickramasinghe's project to develop nuclear mRNA targeting therapeutics for cancer with a $500,000 grant. We look forward to seeing the transformative impact of exteRNA’s therapies on patients’ lives and are proud to support their journey towards clinical success. 👏 Well done, exteRNA 👏   #Biotech #CancerResearch #Innovation #RNAProcessing #mRNAVictoria #MelbourneBiotech
