Aurion Biotech is a private, early-stage biotechnology company focused on developing first-in-class cell and gene therapies to treat blindness and vision loss. Founded in 2021 and headquartered in Seattle, WA and Cambridge, MA, the company leverages global expertise in ophthalmology, regenerative medicine, and drug development to advance innovative therapies. Currently in Phase 1/2 clinical development, Aurion's lead program targets a major cause of blindness, aiming to restore vision through a novel mechanism. The company's platform holds potential for multiple indications, and its progress is closely watched given the large unmet need in ophthalmology.
