Description

The project "Biomanufactured and Customized RNAi
Library for Any Species" received the Gold Medal at Inventions Geneva Evaluation Days (IGED) 2022. IGED is the world's most important annual event devoted exclusively to invention.

Xiaomo Limited is a start-up funded by TSSSU, CityU.

Bacterial cells are used to produce a highly efficient small interfering RNA (siRNA) library that covers the entire genome of any species. This method enables the discovery of potent RNA-based precision medicines and is both cost-effective and environmentally friendly. It can be applied to a range of diseases and will significantly accelerate the development of RNAi therapeutics.
