Kurion creates technological solutions to minimize and stabilize nuclear and hazardous waste for safe, secure and permanent disposal. Kurion’s suite of waste separation, stabilization and robotic technologies are complemented by engineering and environmental services that together provide an execution platform to service the world’s largest nuclear and hazardous waste sites. Backed by venture capital firms Lux Capital, Firelake Capital and Acadia Woods Partners, the Kurion executive team employs a collective 150 years of industry experience managing nuclear and hazardous waste for commercial and government sites worldwide. Kurion is based in Irvine, Calif., and operates a technology development center at its radioactive materials licensed facility in Oak Ridge, Tenn.; a detritiation testing facility in Houston, Texas; two facilities in Richland, Wash., for non-radioactive demonstration testing, engineering and storage of mobile systems; and an office in Loveland, Colo. for engineering design and development.
Omicia is unlocking the potential of individualized medicine. Our mission is to help researchers and clinicians understand and apply the most relevant information from personal genome sequences, to improve disease management and medical outcomes. Researchers and clinical diagnostic organizations use our solutions to analyze and identify the genetic basis of a variety of conditions, including childhood disease, cancer and cardiovascular disease. Opal™, the leading platform for fast, accurate and flexible genome analysis, enables clinicians, researchers and bioinformaticians alike to derive clinically relevant insights from genomic data. VAAST, our robust novel disease gene finder and variant scoring algorithm, is in use at more than 300 academic and clinical institutions including the NIH, the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, Seattle Children’s Research Institute, Institut Pasteur, University of Maryland Institute for Genome Sciences, and UCSF.
Loyal is part of Cellular Longevity, a company working to develop the first drugs explicitly intended to extend healthspan and lifespan — first in dogs, and then in humans, too. By quantifying and controlling the mechanisms of aging, we hope to delay the onset and reduce the severity of age-related diseases, which means more, healthier years for both species. At Loyal, our first products to market are focused on longevity and healthspan in dogs. Join us in our mission to help dogs everywhere.
The trillions of microbes that call us home – the human microbiome – perform critical functions that preserve our health including helping develop our immune system, manufacturing nutrients such as vitamins, and harvesting energy from the diet. Alterations of the human microbiome are increasingly recognized as a key factor in autoimmune, metabolic, infectious and many other diseases. For millions of years, humans have co-evolved with this community of microbes, communicating in an ancient language that holds critical clues about how autoimmune and infectious diseases develop. This language is based on a system of signals that our resident microbes use to successfully colonize us, such as byproducts of bacterial metabolism and factors that bacteria use to adapt to human niches. Recent discoveries have shown that most of these signals do not lead to disease, rather, they promote our long-term survival. Vedanta Biosciences is developing an innovative class of therapies that modulate pathways of interaction between the human microbiome and the host immune system. Vedanta Biosciences was co-founded by PureTech and a group of world renowned experts in immunology and microbiology.
