Powered by pioneering science, grounded in world-class expertise, and driven by purpose, Geron aims to change lives by changing the course of blood cancer.

Nobel Prize-winning discoveries about an enzyme called telomerase and its impact on the uncontrolled proliferation of malignant cells were our beginning.

The belief in the potential of a novel therapeutic approach targeting and inhibiting telomerase started our journey.

The advancement of that idea led to the development and commercialization of therapies with the potential to extend and enhance the lives of people living with blood cancers.
