AI Platform for Rapid Matching of Phages to Bacterial Strains for Personalized Therapy

healthTestedTRL 5

Imagine trying to find the perfect key for a lock, but you have to forge thousands of keys by hand to see which one fits. This technology uses a computer to simulate the fit first, predicting exactly which 'key' (phage) will unlock and destroy a specific 'lock' (bacteria). It's like using a digital twin of a virus to skip the slow trial-and-error process in a lab.

The business problem

What needed solving

Matching therapeutic phages to bacterial strains currently takes years of manual laboratory work. This slow process delays the delivery of life-saving personalized therapies to patients.

The solution

What was built

An AI-driven in-silico platform capable of predicting phage effectiveness, suggesting potency-increasing mutations, and providing explanations for these predictions.
