Luigi Warren invented Moderna’s mRNA technology

Luigi Warren invented the mRNA technology on which Moderna was founded.

If it weren’t for Luigi, then Moderna wouldn’t exist.

 

"Luigi Warren, Ph.D. is President & CEO of Cellular Reprogramming, a biotechnology company located in La Jolla, California. The company produces human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) for researchers in academia and pharma using mRNA reprogramming, a clinically-relevant alternative to viral reprogramming which Luigi pioneered during postdoctoral work at Harvard Medical School."

 

I came across Luigi after Twitter’s “fact checkers” thought that they knew more than Luigi.
