Aiberry is a dynamic startup creating an innovative and practical mental health screening solution. Its platform improves efficiency and saves time for healthcare providers with cutting-edge AI technology, based on two decades of research bundled into a powerful solution that helps providers better serve their patients. Its Machine Learning (ML) pipelines are designed to eliminate biases, including those related to age, gender, sexual orientation and race. Aiberry's distinctive, multi-modal approach evaluates an individual's mental health by analyzing text, audio, and video cues during a bot-administered interview. The status quo of depression measurement requires individuals to self-rate the frequency and severity of their depression symptoms by picking a “best describes you” answer from a series of multiple-choice questions. Meanwhile, Aiberry’s app offers the option of a novel AI assessment featuring a friendly digital animation called “Botberry” that encourages users to talk about themselves in their own words.
Myosana Therapeutics, Inc. is pioneering efforts in developing non-viral targeted gene therapy for skeletal muscle and cardiac diseases. Our current focus is Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) but our platform is applicable to any genetic muscle disease. Current gene therapy for skeletal and cardiac muscle diseases uses Adeno Associated Virus (AAV) to deliver small healthy genes or portions of large genes, to the cells that contain unhealthy (mutated) genes. AAV has numerous limitations, including limited gene size capacity (5 kilobases), precluding its use for many larger genes like dystrophin. Furthermore, many individuals may have naturally occurring antibodies against AAV or will develop antibodies after their first treatment, limiting treatment to a single dose. The Myosana Platform Technology bypasses the limitations of AAV delivery and, therefore, is much more versatile. • The Myosana platform does not use viruses to deliver genes to the cells. • The new technology can deliver genes of any size. • The Myosana Non-Viral delivery method is much less likely to elicit an immune response, enabling repeated dosing over months or years. • The Myosana platform targets the healthy gene to skeletal and cardiac muscle cells. The novel gene therapy approach we have developed will provide new treatments for many diseases of skeletal and cardiac muscle. Our current focus is DMD, but we expect to use the platform to treat other muscular dystrophies and congenital myopathies.

Oscine Therapeutics is a new biotechnology company based on discoveries made and developed at the University of Rochester Medical Center
Sana Biotechnology is focused on utilizing engineered cells as medicines for patients. The ability to modify genes and use cells as medicines will be one of the most important advances in healthcare over the next several decades. Sana is building differentiated capabilities across the spectrum of cell and gene therapy. Three aspirations drive Sana as we look to discover treatments for patients with poor outcomes or currently untreatable diseases. The first is the ability to repair and control the genes in any cell in the body. We are advancing novel delivery technologies with the goal of being able to deliver any payload to any cell in a specific, predictable, and repeatable manner, paving the way for next-generation in vivo gene therapy. Next is the ability to differentiate pluripotent stem cells ex vivo into immune-cloaked functional cells with the aspiration of being able to replace any missing or damaged cells in the body. Last is a belief we can enable broader access to our therapies through focusing on scalable manufacturing solutions, the cost of manufacturing, and aligning with key stakeholders. Sana launched in early 2019 and has over 350 employees in Seattle, Cambridge, and South San Francisco. Sana was founded with the long view – bringing together great people and the best technologies to deliver on the challenging promise of using engineered cells to meaningfully change the outcome of many human diseases.
