Anthrogen
We're training the next generation of protein foundation models.
About the Company
Anthrogen develops protein foundation models to develop new-to-nature peptides with applications from human health to frontier manufacturing efforts. They are comprised of scientists from Columbia, Duke, Berkeley, and more.
They have recently trained a large, multimodal foundation model that is SOTA across a variety of benchmarks and can even be prompted with natural language. They continue to run scaling experiments and are working towards a public launch of their first-generation models in the near future.
The team is seed-stage and has raised $4M from investors like Paul Graham, Box Group, Y Combinator, Wayfinder, and others. www.anthrogen.com
Founders
Connor is the CTO of Anthrogen. Before dropping out of Columbia as a sophomore, he was a researcher in Columbia's ROAM Lab and was the youngest ever Columbia Robotics president. He also placed 3rd Internationally for FRC and top 5 internationally for MATE ROV after over a decade of robotics experience.
Ankit is the CEO of Anthrogen. He was a Science Research Fellow and Named Scholar at Columbia (a designation reserved for the top ~10 STEM research students in each class). He has worked in both wet labs and computational labs (focusing on catalysis and structural biology/biophysics) for years. He published several first-author papers as early as high school, won and led national teams at international science/research competitions – he’s excited to lead Anthrogen’s damp lab approach.
