Co-founder @Arbor Biotechnologies

Cambridge, MA, US

We founded Arbor to harness the protein diversity of bacterial and viral genomes to create best- or first-in-class biotechnology products that address pressing needs in human health and sustainability. We’ve built a leading metagenomic search engine and high throughput synthetic biology-driven discovery platform to rapidly identify new solutions to pressing biotechnology needs and reduce them to practice. We’ve used these capabilities to discover a leading portfolio of next-generation CRISPR gene editing technologies to power breakthrough engineered cell therapies and curative genetic medicines. Our work has been published in Science and resulted in multiple partnerships with leaders in the cell and gene therapy space including Vertex Pharmaceuticals and Lonza.We\'re building an exceptional team at the intersection of computer science and biology and are looking for more great individuals to join us.
