Accelerating Australia’s RNA Innovation Pipeline – Southern RNA and UQ BASE

From Bench to Bedside

End-to-End mRNA Capability in Queensland. Transforming Discovery into Clinical Reality.

Southern RNA and The BASE Facility at The University of Queensland have established a collaborative framework that bridges academic research and clinical translation. Together, we provide a clear and efficient pathway for mRNA therapeutics & vaccines, from early construct design and optimisation to GMP-compliant
manufacturing, fully within Australia.

A Seamless Translational Partnership

This collaboration enables researchers to:

  • Optimise mRNA constructs at BASE, using processes aligned with Southern RNA’s industry standards.
  • Transition efficiently into Southern RNA’s GMP manufacturing platform for clinical development.
  • Reduce time and cost associated with technology transfer.
  • Ensure continuity of quality, data, and documentation from R&D to clinical production.
