Details

At Re:Pair Genomics, we are trying to understand the types of peptide treatments available in the market right now. The objective of this project is to conduct market research on the size of peptide treatments for genetic disorders, including cancer, neurodegenerative, neurodevelopmental, cardiovascular, retinal, and muscular disorders.

Deliverables

Students are expected to:

•      Conduct searches on drug market size from market report databases, various pharmaceutical and biotechnology company websites, as well as scientific literature

•      Create a list/spreadsheet with findings

Re:Pair Genomics uses AI to design compact synthetic promoters, which are DNA
sequences required for gene therapies to target specific cell types. Rather than
spending six months to a year to design and validate promoters manually, our
algorithm can produce designs ready for testing within a day.
