Wyss Institute at Harvard University partners with Northpond Labs to launch RNA solutions company EnPlusOne Biosciences

Today, the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University and EnPlusOne Biosciences (EnPlusOne Bio) announced that the startup company has signed a worldwide, exclusive licensing agreement with Harvard’s Office of Technology Development (OTD) that grants EnPlusOne Bio the rights to commercialize a novel, controlled enzymatic RNA oligonucleotide synthesis technology. The “ezRNA” platform technology was invented and advanced by Wyss Core Faculty member George Church, Ph.D. and an expert team of biologists, chemists, and life science entrepreneurs at the Wyss Institute, and supported and funded by Northpond Labs, the research and development-focused affiliate of Northpond Ventures, as the inaugural project of the Wyss Institute Northpond Labs alliance.
