A research-based biopharmaceutical company, Gilead Sciences, discovers, produces and markets innovative healthcare products that are capable of transforming and simplifying medical care for people, who suffer from life-threatening diseases globally.
Gilead Sciences was established in June 1987. The company primarily focused on antiviral medicines. It concentrated on gene therapy, estimating the potential of genetic code blockers. The development and research of small molecule antiviral therapeutics started in 1991 with licensing of a group of nucleotide compounds (tenofovir was one of them) that further became widely-used anti-retroviral medicines. In 1990, Gilead collaborated with Glaxo for the development and research of genetic code blockers, known as antisense.
Gilead Sciences was founded by Michael L. Riordan, a 29-year-old doctor, who graduated from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Washington University of St. Louis and the Harvard Business School. Riordan worked as the company’s CEO from its inception till 1996.
