We just made an app that walks you through designing a novel protein with AI from scratch. Takes about 5 minutes, requires zero biology knowledge.

The best part: we will actually synthesize 1000 of those protein designs in the lab and test their real world function as a therapeutic.

This is part of our protein design competition at Adaptyv (YC S21, https://adaptyvbio.com) where we test completely novel protein sequences in a real lab.

The deadline to submit proteins is this Sunday EOD. We’ve already received thousands of proteins from hundreds designers from all over the world.

And now you can join too!
