Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Alnylam is developing an entirely new class of innovative medicines based on a breakthrough discovery in biology known as RNA interference, or RNAi. With RNAi technology, we have the opportunity to treat disease and impact the lives of patients in a fundamentally new way by silencing disease-causing genes upstream of today's medicines. The discovery of RNAi has been heralded as a major scientific breakthrough that happens only once every decade or so, and represents one of the most promising and rapidly advancing frontiers in biology and drug discovery today.
