September is Blood Cancer Awareness Month. We stand with everyone living with blood cancer — this month and every day.

Our Culture & Values

Changing what’s possible for patients takes more than just great science. It takes people who refuse to give up.

For decades, Geron has been pursuing a bold scientific vision because we believe patients deserved more. That same determination shapes our culture today.

We’re a team of problem-solvers working together to create more meaningful moments for people living with blood cancer. We celebrate progress, embrace difficult challenges, and believe the best breakthroughs happen when talented people unite around a shared goal.

how we work

Every role has purpose, and every person has an impact.

Working at Geron means joining a team united by a shared commitment to the patients we serve. Your work is visible and your ideas are valued.

As we’ve grown into a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company, we’ve intentionally held onto the entrepreneurial spirit that has defined Geron from the beginning. We’re curious, adaptable, and ready to roll up our sleeves when the going gets tough. We celebrate milestones big and small, learn from one another, and approach every opportunity with urgency because patients are counting on us.

Together, we’re “One Geron.”

our values

The principles that guide us

  • Pioneering Pathways

    Innovation doesn’t happen by following familiar paths. We lead with curiosity, challenge assumptions, and learn from setbacks. Whether we’re advancing science or improving the way we work, we’re committed to learning and finding better paths forward.

  • Better Together

    We believe diverse experiences, thoughtful discussion, and cross-functional collaboration lead to stronger decisions and better outcomes. By learning from one another, we accomplish more than any individual could alone.

  • Always Authentic

    We communicate openly, give thoughtful feedback, and lead with empathy. We value authenticity because strong relationships—and strong teams—are built on mutual respect and transparency.

  • Purpose-Driven

    Patients can’t wait, and neither can we. We move with urgency, act with integrity, and make decisions grounded in what’s best for the patients and care partners who inspire our work.
