We've spent the last 30 months building the physical infrastructure to develop personalized medicines.
Now, we deploy: in the next year, we will manufacture 100+ mRNA cancer vaccines - each purpose built for a single person.

🆕 Interview with the one and only @Wattenberger
You know her for her beautiful and thoughtful blog posts like "Why chatbots are not the future". My favorite quote from our interview is Amelia's way of describing chat-only tools - "it's like nailing jelly to a tree." 💀
