Rinn Pharma & Biopharma

Research & Innovation in Making Medicines  

Rinn Pharma & Biopharma’s transdisciplinary research programme focuses on two core challenges in drug development. The first: creation of patient-centred medicines that meet the needs of diverse patient groups, including the development and manufacture of complex formulations that improve drug effectiveness, acceptability, and dosing. The second: integration of sustainability into all stages of drug development and manufacturing, aiming to reduce the environmental impact of pharmaceutical processes such as synthesis, formulation, and bioprocessing. Rinn Pharma & Biopharma will build the scientific foundation, talent pipeline, and collaborative community needed to address these challenges.
