AI FOR SCIENCE · ON THE RECORD
Venomics AI
Sequences animal venoms collected across India, measures what their peptides do against human drug targets by electrophysiology in its own lab, and keeps the results as the Venom Atlas, a dataset of venom peptides tied to measured activity. Models built on open foundations such as ESM and AlphaFold are trained on it to rank candidates, flag toxicity and redesign venom scaffolds; its stated targets are ion channels, in pain, cardiac and insulin signalling, and insecticidal peptides for crop pests.

- 2026-11-05Potential SciencesSeed · eight-figure sum (capital and compute)Runs gold-standard quantum chemistry (CCSD(T)) on GPUs, at what it says is a hundredth of the usual cost, to compute training data for atomistic models of how molecules bind and react, starting with small-molecule drug discovery for AI-first labs.
- 2026-11-04Isomorphic LabsRound (unnamed) · $5BAlphabet's drug-design company, spun out of DeepMind to build on AlphaFold: it builds AI models to design drug candidates for its own pipeline and for pharma partners.
- 2026-10-29ALLOXSeed · US$10.5M (€9.4M)Measures the effects of thousands of protein mutations at once to map allosteric and other regulatory sites, and builds AI models on that data to find drug-binding spots on hard targets such as protein-protein interactions and transcription factors, for its own small molecules.
- 2026-10-29PerturbMindAngel and Angel+ · tens of millions of yuanBuilds AlphaCell, a model meant to predict how a cell's gene expression changes when a gene or a drug perturbs it, to help find disease mechanisms, new targets and new kinds of drugs; it plans to sell on-device service subscriptions and private deployments and to co-run drug programmes.
- 2026-10-27Atlas BioSeed · $10MRuns in silico clinical trials, starting in immunology: a foundation model trained on about 2 million RNA readouts from human tissue predicts each virtual patient's response to several treatments and diseases, to help drug developers choose what to take into Phase II.
- 2026-10-23Pathos AISeries E · $237MLicenses clinical-stage drugs from other companies and develops them itself, using an agent platform (Foundry, earlier PathOS) trained on patient records to choose assets, pick the patients most likely to respond and adjust trials as they run. Its pipeline is in cancer: prostate cancer, multiple myeloma, lung and breast cancer and TROP2/HER3-expressing solid tumours; in October 2026 it began work in Alzheimer's disease with Bristol Myers Squibb and Tempus.
