Occam Places Steve Colletti as CSO of Korro Bio
Korro Bio is an RNA editing company focused on the discovery and development of a new class of precision genetic medicines for both rare and common diseases. The company has raised over $200M across two rounds of financing. Top-tier investors include Atlas, Qiming, Fidelity, Point72, NEA, Eventide, Cormorant Asset Management, and Citadel.
In Colletti, Korro captures an RNA domain expert and a broadly gauged scientific leader who speaks the languages of both chemistry and biology, a bifocal perspective that he has leveraged to great effect across discovery and translation through early clinical development. After a highly successful R&D career at Merck, Colletti effectively transitioned to Biotech with Lodo which was subsequently acquired by Zymergen.
