CyGenica
CyGenica is a biotech company focused on revolutionizing intracellular therapeutic development through a non-viral, non-toxic platform for safe and targeted molecular delivery. Their mission is to improve patient outcomes worldwide by developing highly specific and selective intracellular delivery of therapeutics, including nucleotides and proteins, to specific cell types. They aim to offer safe and affordable treatment solutions for diseases such as cancer and cystic fibrosis, enhancing the quality of life for patients. Their innovative GEENIE platform enables highly specific cell-membrane translocation of drugs, reducing dosage and toxicity, and making targeted therapy more effective and safer.

Products
Engineered intracellular delivery platform (cell-membrane translocating biomolecule)
A proprietary engineered biomolecule platform that enables non-endocytic translocation of molecular cargos into cells to improve intracellular delivery efficiency and reduce required dose.
Formulation for delivery of gene-editing machinery
Delivery formulation and methods to transport CRISPR/Cas components into target cells with improved delivery rates compared to existing approaches.
Non-toxic live-cell labelling reagent
A live-cell staining reagent that crosses membranes without damaging cells and labels ~90% of cells within one hour; available in targeted variants for specific intracellular compartments (e.g., nucleus, mitochondria).
