Ideas to Impact
Absci is unlocking the potential of next-generation biologics by harnessing deep learning AI and synthetic biology to explore a vast therapeutic sequence space inaccessible to conventional discovery methods.
We started with a question: What if there was a better way to create new medicines?
From a basement in Portland, we engineered E. coli, biopharma’s original host organism, to be an effective factory for complex human proteins. But we didn’t stop there.
We built our technology to enable better, faster, smarter biologic drug discovery and cell line development. We call it Integrated Drug Creation™.
