Excited to introduce @Novogaia_bio! From having worked on the origins of life to DNA origami, one pattern kept emerging: evolution designs molecules better than we do. A thread on why learning from evolution’s designs will unlock the next generation of drugs. 🧵 novogaia.bio

Round 2 of our Cell Culture hackathon, March 14-15. Develop scientific agents to run closed loop automation on real biology. Jobs & Wozniak demoed their Apple I to their soul mates at the Homebrew Computer Club. I hope to see you at our hackathon, my version of that community.

Patterns everywhere in biology. The space between your cells are stuffed with glycoproteins, like heparans, that have floppy sugar molecules attached to them encoding different types of information. Entire body of literature called the 'sugar code' that classify these patterns + describe how they do things like guide neuron axons or cell fate commitment.

I am excited to announce what I’ve been working on for the past 2 years. General Control is a mandate to develop programmable therapies that make durable, reversible adjustments to gene expression - epigenetically activating or silencing multiple targets at once. In the past 16 months, we: - Achieved a technical leap in epigenetic editing by engineering an editor library that outperforms leading published systems on potency and durability - Launched a multi-target partnership with Novo Nordisk - Generated animal data for 3 different programs and developed a lead we are now ready to translate to the clinic - Raised 5.5M pre-seed from @age1vc @fiftyyears @tmrohan @mollyfmielke and others

Agents are finally starting to work in biology. We’ve partnered with Anthropic and major biotech vendors - Vizgen, AtlasXOmics, Takara, 10x Genomics - to build a tool that allows scientists to steer their own analysis with natural language. Raw spatial data to publication quality figures. Our team believes this will soon be the standard way biologists interact with data. Spatial biology agents look a bit different from coding products: - tailored to the molecular details of each kit type - run in sandboxes on very large machines - orchestrate data infra, eg. bioinformatics workflows, with tool calls - build graphical analysis notebooks to communicate results Detailed breakdown of engineering decisions, product philosophy and concrete flows follows:

Like space, nature's chemistry remains deeply unexplored. Tess is searching fungal chemistry space for useful medicines. Both Penicillin and LSD came from fungi (and were accidental discoveries)! Think of what may happen when we search with purpose.

Very cool to see my girlfriend go live with her startup Novogaia, developing new medicines from fungi using AI 🍄 👀 Check it out at @novogaia_bio

Fungi are the key to next-generation medicine, and @novogaia_bio has now proven it can make step-function improvements over the current SOTA. Congrats on the launch!

More people should (1) work with fungi and (2) take advantage of tech scaling to screen

8/ Gaia-01 was built by a small, mission-driven team of computational biologists and ML engineers from @imperialcollege, @ucl, @tudelft, and @ETH, backed by veterans in natural-product drug discovery.

7/ Next, we’re bringing Gaia-01 into the wet lab to screen small molecules from fungi against selected autoimmune drug targets. We’re opening early access for academic and research partners to expand its applications. Read more here: novogaia.bio/gaia-01
