On the hunt for a bet­ter an­ti­body, BigHat Bio­sciences de­buts with $19M Se­ries A to scale its 'wet lab' AI plat­form

Next-gen an­ti­bod­ies have be­come some­what of a Holy Grail in the drug de­vel­op­ment world, but the process of ac­tu­al­ly cre­at­ing those an­ti­bod­ies has proven to be dif­fi­cult and time con­sum­ing. A brand-new Cal­i­for­nia out­fit is look­ing to solve that time crunch by bring­ing AI and ma­chine learn­ing in­to the lab.

BigHat Bio­sciences de­buted Wednes­day with a $19 mil­lion Se­ries A round to help scale up its “wet lab” AI and ma­chine learn­ing plat­form to speed de­vel­op­ment of next-gen an­ti­bod­ies.
