Top Life Sciences Startups in 2024

Deep 6 AI disrupts the clinical trial enrollment process by transforming the way researchers identify eligible patients. Using artificial intelligence and natural language processing to mine structured and unstructured patient data, DEEP 6 AI finds more, better-matching patients for trials in minutes, not months. Deep 6 AI works with some of the most prominent health systems, pharma companies, and CROs in the world --making the DEEP 6 platform a crucial step in their clinical research workflow and greatly accelerating patients’ access to clinical trials.

Freenome is on a mission to empower everyone with the tools they need to detect, treat, and ultimately prevent diseases. If you crave challenges, understudied problems, and the chance to see your work impact the millions of lives touched by cancer, there’s no better place to be. We are committed to our core values of empathy, integrity, and trust enable us to push through challenges, learn from mistakes, and support one another to reach our fullest potential. By applying advanced ML techniques to recent breakthroughs in genomic science, Freenome is developing simple blood tests to detect early-stage cancer and make treatments more effective. The company has raised $238M from investors such as RA Capital, Polaris Partners, Perceptive Advisors, a16z, funds/accounts advised by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., GV (fka Google Ventures), Roche Venture Fund, Kaiser Permanente Ventures, American Cancer Society’s BrightEdge Ventures, Data Collective Venture Capital, & Verily Life Sciences.

Variation of diagnosis is a challenge in dentistry. Going to 10 different dentists can result in 10 very different diagnoses. This variation adversely affects the quality of patient care and results in reduced profitability for practices and insurance companies. Overjet was founded by leading experts from MIT and Harvard School of Dental Medicine who are dedicated to solving the most challenging problems in $130B dental industry to improve care for millions of patients. Overjet's Intelligence Platform analyzes dental data to determine what treatments are necessary for the patient. This helps automate claim review process for dental insurance companies saving them millions of dollars spent on hiring dental reviewers. It also helps increase practice profitability and standardize patient care for group dental practices by identifying necessary but missed treatments by dentists.

Each year, biomedical researchers waste over a billion hours trying to communicate their research by drawing complex biology figures using tools like PowerPoint. These products weren’t built for scientists so are very time consuming and produce poor quality results. What’s worse, if you google any biological concept you’ll find hundreds of figures that look very different but are trying to communicate the exact same thing. At BioRender, our mission is have every visual representation of biology made and communicated with our tools. We reduce the time it takes scientists to create visuals from hours to minutes while drastically improving the quality. We save scientists 10-20 hours per month, giving them more time for the important stuff!

Accelerating the fight against cancer requires the entire industry to work together. Our products connect community oncologists, academics, hospitals, life science researchers and regulators on a shared technology platform. Together, we can learn from the experience of every patient.

Karius is a life sciences company focused on generating genomic insights for infectious diseases with a non-invasive karius® test that helps clinicians make rapid treatment decisions. our laboratory is clia-certified and cap-accredited to perform high-complexity clinical laboratory testing. we provide unique genomic insights by detecting microbial cell-free dna (mcfdna) circulating in the bloodstream from pathogens causing an acute infection. proprietary technology efficiently extracts mcfdna directly from blood and depletes the strong human background signal and environmental contaminants. advanced machine learning algorithms allow analysis of complex genomic data in real-time. proprietary reference genome databases are constantly refined as more data becomes available.

Tempus is a technology company that has built an operating system to battle cancer. Tempus enables physicians to deliver personalized cancer care through its interactive analytical and machine learning platform. The company provides genomic sequencing services and analyzes molecular and therapeutic data to empower physicians to make real-time, data-driven decisions. Our goal is for each patient to benefit from the treatment of others who came before by providing physicians with tools that learn as we gather more data.
