Discovering, Developing & Chemically Optimising Nucleic Acid Therapies for Precise Delivery to Undruggable CNS Targets
Europe’s oligonucleotide landscape is entering a pivotal growth phase. With the €21M launch of Aerska and major collaborations such as Novartis and SciNeuro, Lundbeck and Contera, and Secarna and Vect-Horus, European biopharma companies are rapidly advancing RNA-targeted approaches to address previously undruggable CNS diseases.
In response to this momentum, the inaugural Oligonucleotides for CNS Summit Europe will unite 60+ senior industry leaders for the first European forum dedicated exclusively to CNS-focused oligonucleotide therapeutics.
The summit delivers three days of highly technical, data-driven discussions addressing the challenges unique to CNS development, with insights into next-generation BBB delivery strategies beyond TfR1, advanced in vivo and iPSC models, novel chemistry and conjugation approaches, and translational strategies bridging preclinical data to clinical and regulatory success.
Now is the moment to connect, collaborate and shape the next wave of RNA-based CNS innovation as the field accelerates globally.
The conference was small and yet had so many interactive elements and opportunities for discussion and networking really made it a productive experience.
Nicole, Director, Neurobiology, Novo Nordisk
The meeting was great for networking, the panellists and presenters were all high calibre and the ensuing discussions very informative.
Fay, Senior Director, Asset Discovery, Apellis
The meeting was very interactive. The balance between the presentation and the roundtable discussion was really good. I learned a lot and made valuable connections as well.
Setsu, Senior Scientist, FUJIFILM

Attending Companies Include
Breakfast Briefing with Duygu Yilmaz, Director, RNA Therapeutics & Translational Science, Aerska and Irene Riera Tur, Senior Scientist, Secarna Therapeutics.
This session is designed to build a community of experienced drug developers who want a practical, expert-level foundation across: CNS-specific delivery strategy, oligo chemistry fundamentals, biology and target selection, PK/PD and translational modelling.
It will also be a forum to discuss the questions that don’t always fit into day-to-day meetings.
