RNAi medicines for treating neurological brain diseases
About Aerska
Aerska is a Dublin-headquartered biotechnology company founded in 2025 that develops RNA interference (RNAi) medicines for neurological diseases, with research operations in London. The company focuses on overcoming delivery into the central nervous system by pairing next-generation RNAi payloads with receptor-targeted ‘brain shuttle’ approaches intended to carry genetic medicines across the blood–brain barrier more effectively than conventional modalities. Its pipeline targets neurodegenerative and related CNS indications where durable gene silencing could slow or prevent disease progression. In 2026 Aerska raised a €32 million Series A led by EQT Dementia Fund and age1 to advance its RNA platform and move neurological programmes toward clinical development. The round positions the company among Europe’s better-funded early CNS genetic-medicine ventures and funds platform R&D, delivery chemistry, and team growth across Ireland and the UK.
