10 / Transform health with data

Why it matters

From wearable devices to artificial intelligence to protein modeling, AI and machine learning technology is sparking a revolution in medicine, transforming everything from diagnosis to treatment to drug discovery. We invest in companies at the intersection of biology and technology that are laying the groundwork for predictive, preventative, and curative medicine. We are excited by companies whose competitive advantage comes from a unique way of blending computational tools, wet lab science, and hardware engineering toward making impactful medicines or consumer-facing interventions.

What if technology ushers in a new era of predictive medicine, enabling us to repair a young man’s heart before he even experiences chest pain? What if AI could help predict which new therapies have the greatest statistical likelihood to cure a child suffering from leukemia? AI and machine learning could help target previously undruggable targets in drug discovery and speed up the development of novel medicines at scale. Imagine massive amount of metagenomic data that could be analyzed to unlock 4 billion years of microbial evolution and identify new types of gene editing systems to treat uncurable genetic diseases.
