GEMMA Biotherapeutics
GEMMA Biotherapeutics (GEMMABio) is a Philadelphia-based gene therapy company spun out of the University of Pennsylvania and founded by AAV pioneer James M. Wilson. Launched in October 2024 with $34 million in seed funding, GEMMABio builds the research, manufacturing, and product-development infrastructure to move adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapies from the bench to the bedside faster and more affordably - with a focus on rare and ultra-orphan inherited diseases and a stated commitment to global patient access.
