Nature-inspired biodesign
We leverage our unprecedented knowledge of the natural world to create better food, better medicines and better products for the planet.
Biology meets cutting-edge data science
Capturing complex function in silico
Our sampling partnerships give you access to entirely new genetic biodiversity. For every metagenomic sample we take, we capture thousands of environmental, functional, and other datapoints.
This gives us the ability to computationally predict how proteins perform in the real world, like never before.
