Our research program is directed towards the identification and characterization of novel cancer killing therapeutic viruses that selectively infect and kill cancer cells, while leaving healthy cells and tissues unharmed. Not only do we discover and design new therapeutic viruses, but we also manufacture them for eventual clinical translation and commercialization.
