Startups move at a very fast pace, and details like security, elasticity, and availability can end up neglected due to wanting to release a product or service as quickly as possible. By utilizing AWS, Citus Health was able to leverage built in tools and services to secure their environment and ensure that their services remain available and resilient.

Emerald Cloud Lab (ECL) provides access to a highly automated laboratory, equipped with over 200 unique pieces of scientific instrumentation, to any scientist with a computer and internet connection. As their cloud lab expands to meet growing demand, they’ve faced a growing need for scalable, on-demand compute. To address this growth, ECL built Manifold, a microservices-based architecture that runs on AWS Fargate.

Vincere Health offers low-cost access to addiction healthcare using reward-based habit training. Their belief is clinicians being in the loop are integral to lasting behavior change, and that the technology serves to facilitate and personalize this relationship at scale. Vincere chose AWS as their cloud provider because AWS provides the necessary tools to help us build a HIPAA compliant platform.

Polly is a DataOps platform that allows data scientists to access ML-ready data generated from data repositories, proprietary experiments, and publications. Powered by AWS, Polly’s infrastructure is fast, secure, and scales seamlessly.

Celeris Therapeutics (CelerisTx) is pioneering the adoption of AI on proximity-inducing compounds (PICs), focusing on Targeted Protein Degradation. To save developer time and gain quicker insights, Celeris turned to Amazon SageMaker.

Early in the pandemic, startup PostEra saw a need for an accessible therapeutic treatment – but they had trouble getting anyone to listen. Recognizing concerns ranging from public sentiment to the difficulty in delivering vaccines or antibodies to the Global South, PostEra helped launch a worldwide effort to develop novel antivirals, using technologies from AWS. With help from our team, PostEra rolled up their sleeves to rapidly scale the infrastructure and innovative technologies to speed compounds toward clinical development.

Menten AI created the world’s first protein designed on a quantum computer. The feat has huge implications for the world of drug discovery and design—and ultimately for all of us who may benefit from novel therapeutics to treat diseases.

Cumbersome, disparate data sources in highly regulated environments have historically obstructed longitudinal patient views in clinical research. To help clients generate maximum evidence from trials, Precision Digital Health (PDH) developed a cloud-based platform capable of integrating and harmonizing disparate data assets in the R&D and life sciences industry.

Despite the emergence of big data in healthcare, it remains nearly impossible to share useful, comprehensive, patient-level data sets externally due to strict privacy concerns. Even internally, it can be cumbersome to share data with other teams for analytic and educational purposes. These long-standing challenges led to the creation of Syntegra in 2019. We sat down with their CTO and Co-founder Ofer Mendelevitch to learn more.

This past year has demonstrated, now more than ever, the critical need to be able to develop and deploy rapid molecular testing at scale. The ability to do this has emerged as a major differentiator for ChromaCode, a startup diagnostics company based in Carlsbad, California. Paul Flook, PhD, CIO and VP of Software Engineering walks us through their journey.
