Our mission is to accelerate the future of personalised medicine

At Sano, we’re revolutionising the way personalised medicine research is conducted, making it more efficient and more human-centric.We combine genetic testing, recruitment, and long-term engagement in one platform, accelerating enrollment and simplifying operations for precision medicine studies.

Who we are

Finding, screening and engaging patients for clinical trials can be slow and inefficient, especially when it comes to precision medicine. When each step in the process is siloed, patients, time, and money all slip through the cracks. Studies take longer and cost more, and many potentially life-changing treatments never see daylight. 

Sano is the only 360° platform that seamlessly connects every one of these steps. Not just end to end—a complete circle, combining and quickening efforts now and ongoing.

Leadership

Sano's co-founders met while working on their PhDs at the University of Cambridge. Having experienced both sides of medical research—as research participants and researchers—they felt there was enormous potential to improve the process. Sano was founded on the belief that contributing to research should be engaging, supportive, and meaningful for participants. Our diverse team combines years of expertise in medical research, genetics, and security-focused software engineering to deliver on this mission.
