why we care about rare
Beyond our shared passion to create meaningful therapies for the people who need them most, each and every “Ovidian” has their own personal reason for changing the rare disease landscape.

be bold with us
There’s a difference between developing a drug and creating a medicine. And that difference is Ovid.
To us, bringing a medicine to life means truly understanding the physical and emotional healing power it will have in the lives of individuals with rare neurological diseases and their families—a purpose that defines us as a company, and what makes us bold.
Each and every one of us exemplifies our core value of what we call “Optinacious”—a hybrid of ‘Optimistic’ and ‘Tenacious’. Here, we foster the appetite for growth and knowledge-sharing while making the unattainable, attainable in rare neurological diseases. This is BoldMedicine.
