Absci is a generative AI drug creation company that combines AI with scalable wet lab technologies to create better biologics for patients, faster. Our Integrated Drug Creation™ platform unlocks the potential to accelerate time to clinic and increase the probability of success by simultaneously optimizing multiple drug characteristics important to both development and therapeutic benefit. With the data to learn, the AI to create, and the wet lab to validate, we can screen billions of cells per week, allowing us to go from AI-designed antibodies to wet lab-validated candidates in as little as six weeks. Our vision is to deliver breakthrough therapeutics at the click of a button, for everyone.

We’re excited to announce our new strategic partnership with PrecisionLife. Under the partnership, we’ll be working together to discover and develop a shared pipeline of biotherapeutics for up to five mutually agreed-upon targets and indications. By combining our unique strengths, our goal is to create better therapies for patients with diseases that have long been challenging to treat.

For our annual Unlimiter Day this past Friday, employees from around the world gathered at our HQ in Vancouver, WA to celebrate our achievements in 2023 and plan for continued success in 2024 as we work with our new collaborators like AstraZeneca, Almirall, and PrecisionLife and continue developing our pipeline of new programs like our TL1A antibody ABS-101.

Then on Saturday, we put one of our core values, “We embrace our differences”, into action as Unlimiters volunteered with STEM Like a Girl to help build STEM kits that will be used in local schools to inspire participation in the sciences.

“We're on track to put the first de novo designed antibody with generative AI in the clinic in early 2025.”

Absci, a biotech startup using “generative AI” to create novel therapeutics, is hopefully just one year away from going into the clinic with its first design. That has already pushed Big Pharma to strike larger and larger deals with the company, says founder and CEO Sean McClain.
