Colossal Biosciences

There's the science of today. And then there's the science bigger than any life or span of time. A science that's concerned not only with tomorrow, but also with 20 years, 300 years, 5,000 years from now. That science is Colossal. #deextinction #innovation #startup #technology #bioscience

Why did Colossal choose its de-extinction species? 🦣🦤🐅 Get the official scoop from our Co-founder and CEO, Ben Lamm, who spoke at the Future of Everything Festival, hosted by The Wall Street Journal. 👉 Watch the full video here: https://lnkd.in/gvsK4Fxx #deextinction #technology #bioscience #wsjfuture

Our Avian Group has collected and cultured chicken PGCs, a vital step in de-extincting the dodo AND protecting endangered avian species all over the world. What exactly are chicken PGCs and why are they vital to our mission? Find out. 🦤 #Deextinction #dodobird #bioscience #innovation #technology

Big thanks to Steve Rinella and the MeatEater, Inc. crew for the great conversation today. Enjoyed discussing Colossal Biosciences and how de-extinction is transforming the biodiversity crisis and conservation technologies! #Conservation #DeExtinction #Wildlife #meateater #fueledbynature #biotech #biotechnology

NOW ON THE BLOG: Our journey to protect Australia's unique wildlife takes a significant leap forward! In partnership with University of Melbourne, Colossal's groundbreaking work in introducing new genes to the northern quoll is progressing, paving the way for bufotoxin resistance and safeguarding these incredible creatures from invasive cane toads.🔬 Dive deeper into this story from our Director of Species Restoration and Thylacine lead, Sara Ord: : https://lnkd.in/gFsjUkqP #Bioscience #Conservation #Genetics #NorthernQuoll

Diving into our #deextinction journey and the implementation of breakthrough technologies to help revitalize endangered species, Colossal Co-founder and CEO Ben Lamm was joined by Stefanie Ilgenfritz on stage at the #WSJFUTURE of Everything Festival today. Events like these are critical to education and bring awareness to Colossal’s future-forward work.

Happy International Biodiversity Day! This is one of the most important days of the year for us at Colossal, as our work champions biodiversity and it’s the reason behind all that we do! In celebration of this important day of education and awareness, we’re sharing how Colossal is uniquely equipped to support and maintain biodiversity in ecosystems across the planet.

For decades, a handful of regions around Boston, San Francisco and New York dominated the U.S. pharma and biotech scene. But they’re not the only players in the life sciences game. See which three U.S. cities are putting themselves on the biotech map as unsung hubs of the industry. #biotech #biopharma Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) BioLabs Pegasus Park - North Texas Biotech+ Hub at Pegasus Park Colossal Biosciences Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company, PBC UPMC Krystal Biotech, Inc.

Breaking, a plastic degradation and synthetic biology company that spun out of Harvard, announced its innovation to eliminate plastic pollution. The core discovery, a microbe called X-32 which can break down all major types of plastic, came out of the Wyss Institute at Harvard University and was incubated at Colossal Biosciences.

“What does it mean to be Colossal?” 🥼 The amount of negative news, facts and stats regarding life on Earth can be overwhelming — but, as we like to say, there’s hope. The positive impact our work is already creating is promising beyond measure. As we continue to break barriers and make new discoveries, we’re unlocking more and more incredibly useful science and technology applications that we are proud to share with our communities and other industries. From plant and animal conservation to plastic degredation and human healthcare, the future is beginning to look a little brighter… 🌎💚 Featured team: Rui Chen Darya Tourzani, PhD Alexis Argil Matt James Eriona Hysolli Emily Boyle #deextinction #scientificimpacts #innovation #technology r
