ABOUT STRM.BIO

STRM.BIO (pronounced “storm bio”) is a VC-backed biotech startup building a new kind of gene therapy delivery platform based on naturally occurring extracellular vesicles (EVs). We're leveraging the unique biology of EVs to unlock targeted, scalable, and low-immunogenicity genetic medicines that target the bone marrow.

We’re a small, fast-moving team based at The Engine in Cambridge, MA. We believe in simplicity, integrity, and keeping people at the center of everything we do. We’re here to do great science and build a company we’re proud of.

  • Attend and present at team meetings to share results, and plan projects and experiments, with a keen eye for achieving company milestones

  • Maintain comprehensive and up-to-date knowledge of extracellular vesicle biology, extracellular vesicles as therapeutics, and novel genetic engineering approaches
