AviSyn Pharma

Modern pharma research rarely uses the go-it-alone approach. Programs are driven by multiple sites and across collaborating companies. Many CROs exist to provide scientific support at various levels. However, the most innovative projects demand the most innovative resourcing. AviSyn was formed by major-pharma scientists from AstraZeneca and Vertex. Our experienced staff have in-depth understanding of all aspects of synthesis and medicinal chemistry and have the expertise to accelerate drug discovery of clinically viable, maximally de-risked drug candidates. Over the past 5 years, our scientists have supported numerous clients from major pharma, biotechs, and research foundations.
