Miracles of Science: Antisense Technology

The final chapter of our Miracles of Science series has arrived! Today’s miracle is an important one: Antisense Technology, perhaps you've heard of it 😉

Every day, our patients benefit from what can only be described as miracles of science. Not the fairytale kind. Not wishes granted overnight. These miracles are earned by humans. Built over centuries by scientists whose discoveries stacked, evolved, and refined over time. They are the result of human curiosity, persistence, and an ever-deepening understanding of biology, and they’ve fundamentally changed how we see the world and treat disease.

This series has pulled back the curtain on the scientific and medical breakthroughs that make n-Lorem possible, including Genomic, Stem Cells, the RNA World and Antisense Technology. Their importance is consequential, and without these breakthroughs, n-Lorem would not exist today.

 

On this episode we discuss:

- The Evolution of the Drug Discovery and Development Industry

- The Rise of Small-Molecule Drug Discovery

- New Platforms That Expanded the Possibilities of Drug Discovery

- Why Antisense?

- How Ionis Created ASO Technology
