Our vision
Programming Biology, the technology of everything
Information, matter and energy compose the universe we live in. Imagine if you knew the grammar to transform them all at once, what would you do? Such power is already written in our DNA, literally... Biology is probably the only thing with such versatility and efficacy to reform reality.
Therefore, Ailurus' mission is to ensure this general purpose "technology" - by which we mean an approach to creating (almost) any conceivable system with living things - can be mastered by human beings, and benefits our planet.
Our approach
Biocomputers, built with synthetic biology and AI
To fulfill our mission, we need a unified approach to program biology, whose architecture can be equivalent to a general-purpose computer. We believe it's best to have such a superpower computer built with biological material itself, which means, it should be a "biocomputer".
To start with, we design special-purpose biocomputing systems as microcontrollers of cells. Then these cells can act as a microscale laboratory that operates R&D and production tasks with high efficiency. Together with AI to streamline the process, we aim to accelerate the speed of R&D in biology as fast as the IT industry today. We believe that in this way, the enormous amounts of knowledge we generate for our users and ourselves, will eventually lead us to general biocomputing.
Our work
Research
We research artificial cells, biocomputing, and AI technologies. Together, we study how to automate biological research to lay a foundation for the general-purpose biocomputers.
Highlights
Breaking kingdoms: making synthetic organelles in bacteria with RNAs
It has been taught for decades, "bacteria have no organelle". With synthetic biology, we manage to break this orthodox by constructing synthetic organelles in E. coli, reminiscent of eukaryotic ones.
