About Serna Bio

Serna Bio is a preclinical drug discovery company developing small molecules that can modulate translation and splicing by targeting RNA. Our core innovation lies in the Serna Discovery Platform, which systematically maps RNA structures to a vast chemical universe, generating large proprietary datasets. We use our platform to tackle undruggable targets and novel biology inaccessible by classical drug discovery.

The Values You'll Share
  • The Data Decides: The future of drug discovery will be computationally led. Opinions are just hypotheses. The data rules.
  • Unapologetic Ambition: The work we do matters. We maximise its value by striving to make the biggest impact, fastest. We don't take the easy path, or wait for lower risk. We show up with a plan. We define what victory looks like. We make our time count.
  • We Don't Rely on Experience: We are humble in the face of work that has never been done before. We never default to experience. We use what we already know to train the machines to outperform us.
  • Only the Highest Standards: We are inspired by challenge. We work hard. Our efforts are guided by the utility of every failed experiment and the value of new learning. Metrics matter to us. Effort, integrity, honesty, execution, and excellence are what we owe each other.
  • We Are One Company: We operate with a 'company first, team second' mentality. We learn from the perspectives of others. Our is an antedisciplinary idea meritocracy. Ego is valueless. Diverse perspectives, integrity, resilience, and teamwork are priceless.
  • High-Density, High-Frequency Communication: We share Work in Progress. We offer and accept critical opinions on this work so that the final versions are excellent. We communicate clearly to enable rapid decision-making, and we bring solutions, not just problems to the team.
