Accelerate Drug Development with Ultrafast Functional Interaction Mapping and Prediction

We profile millions of cell-cell interactions by functional response at the single cell level to screen for therapeutic agents. We combine ultrafast single cell-cell interaction mapping with proprietary AI models to identify novel targets and quickly build more effective and safer drugs to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Powered by Proprietary Ultrafast Screening Platform and AI Models

Our proprietary TCELERATORTM platform enables us to functionally and dynamically profile millions of single cell interactions at the same time, finding rare populations that are like needles in a haystack. TCELERATORTM allows us to screen for any kind of immune modulating agent by its specific function. This precision platform is combined with proprietary AI models to yield a more comprehensive yet much faster way for drug development, leading to safer and more effective drugs.
