Most of us know someone who has had cancer or who has died from cancer. Some statistics suggest that 1 to 2 people in 10 will get cancer in their lifetime. It is a scary thought, that 1 to 2 people in 10 of our friends and family may get cancer. Cancer does NOT care what your job title is, how old you are, where you are from, how educated you are, whether you are: a mum, a dad, a child, a king, a queen, you’re rich, you’re famous. No one is immune to its effects.

Whilst much work has been done on cancer, and encouraging progress has been made, there are still a number of cancers that are difficult to treat, especially if they are diagnosed late. Cancers where treatments exist often need better ways of treating them.

At Enigma, we are working to unlock technology that fundamentally cripples how cancer operates. That means going back to the drawing board and finding weaknesses in the cancer process that can be exploited as treatments that are effective on even hard-to-treat cancers.

This means doing things that have not been done before.

Each member of the Enigma team including our academic collaborators are accomplished and distinguished professionals in their chosen field. Everyone without exception has put their personal interests aside to work in this team to achieve results for the greater good of each and everyone of us. We are driven by cutting edge science, asking the right questions, building solid foundations, setting good goals, challenging ourselves to succeed and then making sure we move forward.

Our mission is to develop effective medicines that change the way cancer is treated whilst lifting the burden of side effects to start a revolution against cancer.
