Oxford Nanopore was founded in 2005 as a spin-out from the University of Oxford. They developed the world’s first and only nanopore DNA and RNA sequencing platform — that offers scalability to portable or ultra-high throughput formats, real-time data delivery, and the ability to elucidate rich biological data.

Dr Gordon Sanghera is co-founder and CEO of Oxford Nanopore. He has led the company through multiple finance rounds, and in 2021, a listing on the London Stock Exchange.

Kathleen Barnes is the SVP of Population Health & Precision Medicine at Oxford Nanopore. Kathleen’s career spans >30 years focused on genomic medicine and precision-driven health equity.
