TeselaGen Biotechnology
TeselaGen Biotechnology builds an AI-powered, cloud-based operating system for biological R&D. Spun out of the Department of Energy's Joint BioEnergy Institute and founded by Stanford and Berkeley scientists, its platform - organized around the Design-Build-Test-Learn cycle with DESIGN, BUILD, TEST and DISCOVER modules - lets researchers design DNA libraries, generate lab-robot assembly protocols, capture experimental data and apply machine learning to converge on better biological products faster. Customers span industrial biotech, biopharma and academia, including Amgen, LanzaTech, Twist Bioscience, Arzeda and Stanford.
Asimov
Asimov is a Boston-based synthetic biology company building computer-aided design (CAD) tools for engineering living cells. Founded in 2017 by bioengineers from MIT and Boston University, it combines mammalian synthetic biology, software, and machine learning through its Kernel platform and 'Edge' production systems to help drug makers design and manufacture cell, gene, and RNA therapies more reliably. The company has raised over $200M, including a $175M Series B in January 2023 led by CPP Investments.
