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 ...

Tune Therapeutics

The vast majority of human disease is governed by the epigenome, the subtle machinery that controls the volume of gene expression in cells. Tune Therapeutics is pioneering the creation of epi-therapeutic medicines with its powerful and precise epigenomic control platform, TEMPO. Unlike genome editing, TEMPO dials the volume of gene expression up or down towards healthy levels, without breaking or permanently rewriting DNA – and it can do this in multiple genes at once. This genetic tuning approach allows us to change cell fate and function at will, unlocking the ability to reverse pathways of cancer, genetic disease and aging. Our approach effectively expands the potential reach of genetic medicine – from targeting a limited range of rare conditions, to overcoming thousands of complex and chronic diseases that currently have no curative treatment.

Inocucor

The Phyto-Microbiome Company Biological Optimizers for Soil, Seed and Plant Vigor Inocucor is an agri-tech company that develops powerful natural biological products for agriculture targeting the phyto-microbiome—the seeds, plants, root systems and the soil surrounding them. Inocucor`s first-generation product, Garden Solution®, soon to be re-branded as Synergro, employs live microbes to actively improve the health of the entire phyto-microbiome. Its second product, Synergro Free and future generations of Inocucor products are powerful biological formulations for bio-stimulation, bio-fertility and bio-control targeting mainstream production agriculture.

Inflammatix

Inflammatix, Inc. is a venture-backed startup located in the San Francisco Bay Area that is building novel diagnostics for acute infections and sepsis based on our unique immune biomarkers. Approximately $10 billion / year is spent trying to diagnose acute infections, but current technologies that focus on `finding the bug` are (1) slow and (2) effective in fewer than 30% of cases. Inflammatix has developed a statistically rigorous, extensively validated diagnostic method that `reads` the immune system. Our HostDx™ tests report clinically actionable information on the presence, type (bacterial or viral), and severity of infection in all patients. They have been extensively validated and published in top-tier medical journals. After this initial product, Inflammatix plans to develop and commercialize additional novel diagnostic tests to address significant unmet clinical needs.

Lyell

We are entering a new era of medicine, where cancer is treated with cellular therapies: living, smart, targeted drugs. While enormous strides have been made, especially in hematologic cancers, the full promise of these therapies still lies ahead. Cell-based immunotherapies have yet to show substantial benefit in solid tumors, which represent the vast majority of cancers. Our goal is nothing less than to develop curative cell-based therapies for solid tumor cancers.
