Focus Areas
Synthetic biology is ushering in an era where therapeutics can be iteratively engineered rather than discovered. Our platform enables an engineering mindset for next-generation medicines.
Monoclonal antibody
manufacturing
Multifunctional and
difficult-to-express
molecule manufacturing
Design of vector payloads
and capsid-specific
optimization
AAV and lentiviral
manufacturing
Technology
Full-stack bioengineering.
Synthetic Biology
Nature has evolved billions of useful molecular devices in the form of genes, across the tree of life. We source, catalog, refine, and remix these genetic components to build new biological systems.
Computer-Aided Design
Biology is complex, and genetic engineering unlocks an unbounded design space. Computational modeling is critical to move synthetic biology beyond traditional brute force screening.
Multi-omics Measurement
Genome-scale, multi-omics measurement technologies provide deep views into the cell. These techniques permit pathway analysis at the scale of a whole cell, and inspection down at single-nucleotide resolution.
Machine Learning
Machine learning bridges large-scale datasets with mechanistic models of biology. Artificial intelligence can augment human capabilities to design and understand biological complexity.
Asimov Inside
We endeavor to build the genetic programs powering the world's most impactful biotechnologies. One day, entire genomes will be designed from the ground up. Come help us build this future.
Meet Our Team
Ours is a culture of recombination, where diverse expertise and experiences intermix. Our team spans synthetic biology, machine learning, computational biology, and automation.
