Ligo Biosciences
Enzyme design models.
What they do
Developing enzymes for industrial chemical reactions is slow, expensive, and relies on years of trial-and-error, limiting sustainable alternatives to traditional chemical manufacturing.
Deep-learning enzyme design models that learn catalysis principles to rapidly design enzymes for specific reactions in days rather than years.
Chemical manufacturers and industrial biotech companies that need enzymes to produce chemicals more sustainably.
Founders
Deep learning for enzyme design!
I'm a biochemist from Oxford University with experience in the intensive environment of biotech startups, working on everything from bacterial biofuel production to vaccine design. Now focused on designing enzymes to make the chemical industry more sustainable.
Founder at Ligo (S24). I studied Cell and Systems Biology at Oxford where I became a Google Cloud Research Innovator for my work in computational biology. Interested in deep learning, scaling laws, geometric DL, biomolecular design.
