Re MRNA I think the old "MRNA" (Marina Biotech) was in the mRNA business... But I think the new "MRNA" is Moderna, a different company. http://marinabio.com/marina-biotech-announces-name-change-to-adhera-therapeutics-to-more-closely-reflect-the-mission-of-improving-patient-outcomes/ EDIT: I don't think Marina Biotech would EVER be able to raise the funds that Moderna did.
