We are

Building Petri Dish 2.0,

a cloud-connected automation platform that grows and analyzes human cell and tissue models with precision and reproducibility. Microfluidic technology and AI-driven feedback transform traditional biology from a manual, error-prone process into a programmable science. By automating feeding, dosing, and monitoring, our systems allow researchers to focus on discovery rather than routine maintenance, bringing the power of reproducible, scalable experimentation to every lab.

Scientists from UC Santa Cruz

who lived the frustrations of manual cell culture firsthand. Our mission is to make biology as shareable, reliable, and collaborative as software. With the FDA’s Modernization Act accelerating the shift away from animal models, our platform delivers the infrastructure for this new era, enabling human-relevant data, distributed experimentation, and faster, more ethical drug development.
