Accounts Payable & Administrative Support Specialist

Glycomine is committed to developing therapeutics for serious rare diseases, the vast majority of which do not have any disease-modifying treatment options available. Many of these diseases are driven by a genetic mutation that disrupts the production of an important protein. Glycomine’s therapeutic approach is to replace the protein or deliver a substrate or enzyme to bypass the deficiency in the protein.  With this approach, Glycomine can establish a pipeline of therapeutic candidates to address a wide range of rare diseases.  

 

Our team has a special dedication to find solutions to the significant unmet medical need experienced by patients and families with rare diseases. We come from many disciplines and bring multiple viewpoints and broad expertise to our mission. We are driven by the imperative and the opportunity to develop therapies that can provide meaningful improvements in the quality of life for patients, caregivers, and families.
