Generate Biomedicines, Inc.

  • Co-Founder

    2018

    Generate Biomedicines is an early-stage life sciences company pioneering a machine learning– powered biomedicines platform with the potential to generate new drugs on demand across a wide range of biologic modalities—from short peptides to complex antibodies, enzymes, cytokines, and yet to be described protein compositions. Generate Biomedicine’s multimodality generation platform represents a potentially fundamental shift in what’s possible in the field of therapeutic development, addressing key challenges of drug discovery and drastically expanding the available search space for novel biomedicines. Generate Biomedicines was founded by Flagship Pioneering.

    - Demonstrated predictable community response of the developing preterm infant gut microbiota to antibiotic therapy, with robust resilience to specific antibiotics correlated with community-wide antibiotic resistance composition (Gibson et al, Nature Microbiology, 2016) - Developed Resfams, a profile hidden Markov model (HMM) database for improved annotation of antibiotic resistance in microbial genomes (Gibson et al, ISME, 2015) - Optimized ShortBRED for antibiotic resistance, a method for generating short markers of gene families to annotate functions using short read metagenomic sequencing data (Kaminski J*, Gibson MK*, et al., PLOS Comp. Biol., 2016) •- Supported by multiple competitive research fellowships (National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship, Mr. & Mrs. Spencer T. Olin Fellowship)
