We’re building the first universal virtual cell-signaling model to decode the language of cells—so biology is no longer destiny, but design.

The new year marks a new era: Somite is now Cellular Intelligence. This is a statement of what we are building: the first universal virtual cell signaling-model to understand, predict, and control cell behavior. To mark this moment, we’re releasing a white paper sharing technical milestones and our roadmap for the future: cellularintelligence.com/science Learn more about the future we are building – where biology is no longer destiny, but design: cellularintelligence.com

Biology, technology, and AI are converging in a way that’s changing how medicine is developed. As @JShendure notes, this alignment replaces trial-and-error biology with systems that can scale, predict, and learn. At Cellular Intelligence, that future is taking shape through a foundation model for virtual cell signaling. The data is flowing. The infrastructure is built. Join us in this revolution: cellularintelligence.com Cc: @MichaBreakstone @KleinLabHMS

An insightful read! Exciting to see our very own Co-Founder and CEO, @MichaBreakstone, quoted on how Austin is bringing together tech and bio.
Jason Scharf@Jason_A_Scharf

Everything you need to know about Austin's surging Bio & Health ecosystem. The era of Austin as an "emerging" hub is officially over. 🤠🚀🦾🧬 @jani_tuomi and I just dropped the 3rd annual Austin Bio & Health report, and we bring the receipts. 1) Bio & Health VC funding hit a massive $1.6 billion in 2025 2) Total ecosystem value surged 45% in just one year to $77 billion. 3) Skyrocketed from 18th to 6th nationally in less than a decade 4) Only ~$100M away from overtaking legacy hubs like LA and San Diego 5) Austin is building a full stack ecosystem and creating a new model for what a healthy city can be. Full report in reply.

What if questions like “How do I manufacture this tissue?” or “How do I restore function in these disease-state cells?” didn’t require years of trial and error? We’re building a foundation model designed to generate precise, actionable protocols, helping move cell therapy from discovery to real-world impact. Discover how the convergence of biology, technology, and AI makes this all possible, next week. More at cellularintelligence.com cc @JShendure

Teasing out the combinatorics of cell signaling at massive scale is a key challenge in regenerative medicine — and central to fundamental questions in developmental biology. Last week, our Scientific Co-Founder Olivier Pourquié presented at @KeystoneSymp on Stem Cell Models in Embryology, sharing new data from his lab on the regulation of the segmentation clock – a vivid demonstration of how much combinatorial signaling has to teach us about the logic of development. It's exactly this that points to where the field is heading: at Cellular Intelligence, we've built the capabilities to tackle this at unprecedented scale — massively multiplexed signaling in encapsulated PSCs, exposing cells to millions of experimental conditions and unlocking a foundation model to predict cell signaling responses. It's a bold vision for what's possible when developmental biology meets AI-driven discovery — one that puts us on a path to truly understand, predict, and ultimately control cell fate.

The era of PSC-based medicine isn't coming — it's here. Japan just conditionally approved two PSC-derived therapies (heart failure + Parkinson's), 20 years after Yamanaka's landmark paper made it possible. This milestone underscores that PSC-derived medicine has entered the real world. The next question is: how do we make these therapies reliably predictable and controllable? This is exactly what we lay out in our white paper here: cellularintelligence.com/science #RegenerativeMedicine #iPSC #CellTherapy #Biotech #AI

“Quantitative predictions that were just impossible yesterday may be possible tomorrow.” — @arjunrajlab At Cellular Intelligence, we’re assembling a team across genomics, developmental biology, and AI to make biology a predictive engineering discipline - and we’re scaling fast (linear effort resulting in exponential output, per @JShendure). If you want to be part of a team relentless in making biology a predictive engineering, join us. Learn more about our team at cellularintelligence.com Next week, we’ll share more about how this mission comes to life. #CellularIntelligence #TechBio

Thrilled to have our founders’ journey featured by @suzanneday at @harvardmed! The gap between "lab success" and "clinical reality" often comes down to the immense complexity of cellular decision-making. We’re bridging that gap by combining developmental biology with AI foundation models to master the "internal logic" of the cell. We’re moving beyond labor-intensive manual experimentation to a predictive platform that can guide cell development robustly and at scale.

There is a specific magic that happens when you put developmental biologists, systems biologists and AI entrepreneurs in a room. Our “what if” at @CellularIntelHQ was simple: what if we could learn the language of cell signaling, meaning predict how any cell, in any state, will change in response to a signal before we run the experiment? The challenge is that signaling is complex and deeply context-dependent. Cells must receive the right sequence of cues at precisely the right moments, and even small changes can have outsized effects. We’re building AI foundation models trained on massive experimental datasets to make cell therapies more robust and scalable. Proud to see our journey featured by @harvardmed, and grateful to the HMS community that supported our early days. Together, we are building a future where biology is no longer destiny, but design.

At Cellular Intelligence, we are making the impossible possible. Others conduct one experiment per day, 300 days a year. That’s roughly 6,000 experiments over 20 years. We ran 75,000 experiments in just 9 days. In other words, we run more experiments in a single day than many leading labs can complete over 20 years. This is a turning point for understanding cell signaling that could unlock new ways to treat the many incurable diseases humans face today. Stay tuned to learn more about how we’re making this come to life: cellularintelligence.com cc @JShendure

We are building a future where biology is no longer destiny, but design. At Cellular Intelligence, we’re creating what has never existed: a way to predict, model, and control how cells behave before experiments are ever run. By combining large-scale cellular data with AI, we’re decoding the rules of cell signaling and turning biology from an observational science into predictive engineering. Follow along as we share more insights throughout the month, and discover why this moment could change the future of drug discovery and regenerative medicine: cellularintelligence.com cc @JShendure

Somite is now Cellular Intelligence. More than a rebrand, this reflects what our team has been building over the last two years: the first universal virtual cell signaling model, designed to understand, predict, and ultimately control cell behavior. To further mark this step forward, we’re releasing a new white paper that shares our technical progress and maps out what is to come: cellularintelligence.com/science Deeply proud of our team for daring to turn an implausible idea into reality.
