GenBio AI Releases Phase 1 of World's First Digital Organism to Transform Medical Research

Unlike earlier models that focus on specific aspects of a multi-cellular organism, GenBio AI takes a holistic approach where multiscale foundation models are built in modules and integrated into a single system. These State-Of-The-Art models are unprecedented in their capabilities:

GenBio AI is set to fuel an unprecedented era of discovery across molecular, cellular, and organism levels. These "building block" Foundational Models are just the first phase on the company's road map to the world's first AIDO. More details are expected in the year ahead.

Professor  Eric Xing, Co-Founder and Chief Scientist of GenBio AI, said: "GenBio will usher in a new era of medical and life science—through a paradigm shift powered by next-generation Generative AI technology beyond what has already brought us disruptive results such as ChatGPT. Our transformative technology allows biological data of all types and scales to be utilized to distill holistic and comprehensive knowledge of how living systems work. Therefore, multiscale biological complexities are no longer barriers but opportunities for breakthrough insights."

The company's world-class and internationally recognized team of scientists, scholars, and engineers are leading experts in AI, machine learning, high-performance computing, and computational and experimental biology. The team published all six technical papers detailing their novel approach to creating the world's first AIDO at the 38th Annual Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS) – the top AI research conference.  

By sharing this work, GenBio aims to help guide the community forward, enabling experts to understand the possibilities to observe, experiment with, and eventually program living systems with unprecedented precision across molecular, cellular, and systemic levels.

Breaking Down Biological Barriers - Detailing GenBio AI's Models

GenBio AI is the first company to release multifunctional models covering mainstream biological data - namely DNA, RNA, Protein, and Cell - and are poised to empower researchers to drive the next breakthroughs in medicine, drug discovery, and longevity research.

Dr. Le Song, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer at GenBio AI, said: "What we have built is revolutionary because our integrated system will use these state-of-the-art models to create interactive digital versions of biological systems that can be safely experimented on and precisely modified. This technology lets us program biology the way we program computers, opening up possibilities we've never had before in medicine and biotechnology."

Professor Xing continues: "Even before their integration into the AIDO system, each Foundational Model from the collection stands out already as a best-of-its-kind among their respective peers. GenBio AI does not just train best soloists, it is building an orchestra made of a herd of the best soloists."

Transforming Medical Research and Drug Development

GenBio AI's Digital Organism will revolutionize three critical areas:

Global Expertise, Global Impact

GenBio AI's achievement represents a collaboration of world-renowned scientists from leading institutions, including Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), Stanford, the Weizmann Institute of Science, and MBZUAI. Senior Scientific Fellows, including Eran Segal and Fabian Theis, also add to the company's robust team of internationally recognized experts.

Headquartered in Palo Alto with satellite labs in Paris and Abu Dhabi, GenBio AI takes a global approach to solving these fundamental challenges in biology. The intellectual foundation of this breakthrough was detailed in the six peer-reviewed papers presented at NeurIPS. 

Professor Eran Segal, Department of Computer Science, Weizmann Institute of Science says: "GenBio AI's six multiscale foundation models are a leap forward in our ability to understand and predict biological phenomena. We now have the capacity to uncover systemic insights into how organisms function. This is transformative for genomics research, where the ability to simulate and program at multiple scales opens new avenues for precision medicine and disease intervention."

Professor Fabian Theis, Director of the Institute for Computational Biology at Helmholtz Munich and Professor at the Technical University of Munich says: "GenBio AI's achievement in creating scalable state-of-the-art models on multiple scales is a game-changer. This technology not only accelerates our ability to explore cellular dynamics but also bridges the gap between molecular and systems biology, unlocking unprecedented opportunities for disease modeling and therapeutic innovation."
