"If-then" conditional logic for protein drugs

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We're building protein therapeutics that detect their location inside the body and activate only at diseased tissue. That allows us to widen the therapeutic window of potent drugs that would otherwise harm healthy cells. Our initial focus is on applications in cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Boston, MA, and plan to base the company here after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Boston has a strong biotech ecosystem and access to labs and talent we need to develop synthetic biology therapeutics. This proximity is critical for both research and recruiting.
