Company
Factor’s culture is one of curiosity and discovery, driven by a desire to invent new technologies to treat disease and improve health. At Factor, we strive to immerse our scientists in an environment that provides all of the resources they need to be successful. In this environment, we have assembled a vibrant and diverse community of people collaborating to produce outstanding results.
Mission, Vision, & Core Value
Mission
We founded Factor Bioscience to develop new technologies in a little-explored area that we believed had enormous potential: messenger RNA ("mRNA"). Our goal is to unleash the potential of mRNA to treat disease and improve health.
Vision
At Factor, we support a model of unlimited discovery. We believe that breakthroughs arise when scientists are given the freedom and resources to pursue their ideas. At Factor, science is our business.
Core Value
Patience: At Factor, our projects are not organized around artificial timelines. We understand that science is often unpredictable, and success requires committing to explore potentially world-changing ideas.
Our Lab
We use our ISO Class 7 cleanroom facility, located at our headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts, to produce cutting-edge mRNA and cellular medicines for clinical testing.
In this facility, we are producing cells that have been reprogrammed and gene-edited using mRNA for anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and regenerative-medicine applications. These cells are planned for eventual testing in human subjects in support of our pipeline of therapeutic programs.
In addition to supporting our own projects, we are pleased to provide our partners with access to our cleanrooms to support and accelerate their clinical programs.
