    Radical Numerics is an AI research lab building general biological intelligence — applying distributed systems, model architecture, and numerics research to biology. We built Evo and Evo 2, the generative genomics models behind the first AI-designed gene-editing tools and the first whole genome designed entirely by AI (published in Science and Nature).

Advisors include Eric Horvitz (CSO, Microsoft), Chris Ré (Stanford), and George Church (Harvard).
