Biology is severely under-utilized. 20n (YC W15) fixes that using software predictions to create cells that produce pharmaceuticals, materials and other products. We created organisms that eat sugar and produce acetaminophen -- the active ingredient of Tylenol. This is the first biological means of making acetaminophen.
20n has existing Fortune 500 customers with great incoming revenue. We are also backed by Khosla Ventures, YCombinator, and DARPA. Our core technology is a data mining and machine learning platform for biological data. We routinely distribute using Spark, write approximation algorithms for NP-complete problems, and push the software predictions to robots that build the microbes. We are looking for algorithms experts who want to see their predictions create new life!
