We've been hard at work building a new protein engineering toolkit at LatchBio. Check out how I used these tools to design new binders for PCSK9 and how Tahir D'Mello created a synthetic set of plastic-degrading enzymes: blog.latch.bio/p/engineering-…

Been eating, breathing, dreaming proteins while building out a protein toolkit at LatchBio Check out the blog to see how I created synthetic plastic-degrading enzyme "ideas" — and how Brontë Kolar designed binders for a cholesterol target shorturl.at/dCvai

Wild that in 2024 anyone can design cancer-fighting proteins from their laptop and get them designed for free. Adaptyv Bio is running a competition to design EGFR-targeting proteins, with top designs getting tested to see if they block EGF from interacting with the receptor!

Modern biotechs are industrial research labs that must fight nature and coordinate diverse teams before running out of money. Few online resources breakdown company structure + show how experiments flow between teams. We walk through a mock campaign, from ideation to IND, to

The bioinformatics stack will get rewritten for GPUs over the next decade. New molecular assays, managed infrastructure and tailwinds from the AI boom create the perfect storm We release benchmarks for GPU-enabled nf-core/methylseq + invite collaboration on our assay roadmap.

Dyno Tx uses machine learning guided engineering of large molecular libraries to build new AAVs with: - better brain transduction - liver detargeting - comparable production We reproduced public scientific results + dig into the guts of interesting visualizations:

🧬 Big Pharma's antibiotic problem: A successful drug + FDA approval = $776M loss Here's how that happens 🧵

I spent the past ~4 weeks deep diving into all spatial profiling technologies. The landscape is incredibly fascinating. From a few foundational technologies in the 2010s, we now have more than 20 companies + 41 commercial product offerings today. To help navigate the landscape,

🧪@ZeonSystems is making science move at the speed of thought. Scientists type out their experiments in English and Zeon programs robots to execute it. One system. Any lab. Any scientist. Any task. ycombinator.com/launches/NOp-z… Congrats on the launch, Brontë Kolar and Tahir D'Mello!

YC is the YC of hard tech

New AI robotics company just launched, Zeon Systems (YC X25) from my group in YC X25

I ❤️ being a scientist but hate how tedious it can be. I want robots! So I jumped at the chance to be one of Zeon Systems (YC X25)’ pilot testers — plz, automate my serial dilutions asap, guys! (I was secretly skeptical. But willing to help them try) Well, it’s working! & Zeon is

Sim Studio (Sim Studio) is an open-source platform to build AI agents. Connect LLMs to your favorite tools (Slack, Pinecone, Supabase) to build agent workflows in minutes — not days. ycombinator.com/launches/NRf-s… Congrats on the launch, Emir Karabeg and Waleed!

Billboards for Zeon Systems (YC X25) are up in SF! We won our YC group’s product showcase with a live demo of our AI-powered lab automation. Wild to see our mission on the 101. Huge thanks to Y Combinator + our partners (Dalton Caldwell, Aaron Epstein, David Lieb, Jon Xu) for sponsoring this.

Theorem (Theorem) is an AI-coding IDE for mission-critical software. They're making program verification 10,000 times faster, so your systems code does exactly what you asked for. Congrats on the launch, Jason Gross and Rajashree Agrawal! ycombinator.com/launches/NZA-t…
