Microscience company profile

Microscience is a biotechnology company focussed on the discovery and development of innovative rationally designed vaccines for the prophylaxis and treatment of disease in areas of significant unmet clinical need. Microscience, which was founded in 1997, has used proprietary functional genomics and vaccine technology expertise as the basis of an expanding product portfolio. The Company’s secure intellectual property – with three granted patents and many others covering over 300 genes and targets – underpins the product development, providing long-term intellectual property protection well beyond the projected product launch dates.
