The value of context

Mucosal tissues are dynamic interfaces where immune cells, microbes, metabolites, and epithelial barriers continuously exchange information. Reading that context is essential for developing therapies that work with the body rather than against it.

By focusing on local signals, engineered microbial systems can be designed to respond only when relevant biology is present. This creates a path toward therapies that are more selective by design.

From sensing to action

The goal is a therapeutic platform that can interpret biology in real time and convert that interpretation into measured, localized activity.
