Enveda Biosciences’ Post

We're #hiring a new Research Associate/Senior Research Associate in Hyderabad, Telangana. Apply today or share this post with your network.

We are thrilled to announce that Enveda has successfully helped our partner universities secure a €2.6M @Horizon Europe grant from the European Commission to launch a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network for 10 talented PhD students! ⭐ Our ModBioTerp initiative will focus on groundbreaking research in enzyme modeling and biochemistry. The network will provide comprehensive training in the rapidly evolving fields of biochemistry, AI-guided enzyme modeling, laboratory-directed evolution, and synthetic biology. At Enveda, we are particularly excited to support and host one of these brilliant PhD students next summer, supervised by leading experts in the field: Tomáš Pluskal from IOCB Prague Aalt-Jan van Dijk from the University of Amsterdam Christoph A. Krettler 🌱, Daniel Domingo-Fernández and Tobias Kind from Enveda. The aim is to develop deep learning models to predict reaction substrates and products from the amino acid sequences of terpene synthases, utilizing cutting-edge transformer neural networks. 🌿 💡 We are eager to embark on this journey and collaborate with these distinguished experts to advance our understanding of synthetic biology, ultimately driving innovation in biotechnological applications.

Thank you to the team at On Deck for naming us among their Top Companies for the second year in a row! We're grateful for the recognition of our progress -- and we are just getting started! We've built a first-in-class drug discovery platform, moved into our new HQ, built a strong company culture across 2 continents, and are now in the final stages of prepping our multiple lead candidates for clinical trials. Stay tuned for more! https://lnkd.in/greUWTMG

 🌈 Enveda Biosciences is proud to celebrate Pride Month! 🌈   We're kicking off the month-long celebration with a special video wall message at our Boulder, CO headquarters. Join us in honoring and supporting the LGBTQIA+ community, and stay tuned for more events and activities throughout the month. Together, let's celebrate diversity, inclusion, and love! #PrideMonth #EnvedaBiosciences #LoveIsLove #DiversityAndInclusion #Pride2024

Thank you to our friends over at Decoding Bio for featuring PRISM, our foundation model for life's chemistry, in their latest newsletter. Since only an estimated 0.1% of life’s chemistry is known, PRISM is a major new tool for decoding the chemical basis of biology and turning that knowledge into new medicines. To check out the excellent Decoding Bio newsletter:  https://lnkd.in/e48QXVXu To learn more about PRISM, check out our blog post: https://lnkd.in/g3UMiTA4

Enveda Biosciences welcomed 150 attendees last week at our open house, including many from local biotech companies. Emily Martini, Vice President of Partnerships at the Colorado BioScience Association, kicked off our event and introduced our CEO Viswa Colluru, PhD, who shared Enveda's inspiring journey and future direction. Viswa also revealed our exciting new partnership with Microsoft!   Guests explored our office and labs through a self-guided QR code tour. The evening was topped off with delicious catering from our neighbor, A Spice of Life, Inc.   A big thank you to our sponsors for making this event possible: - Colorado BioScience Association (CBSA) - Cushman & Wakefield - BioMed Realty - Murphy Company - Howell Construction   Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the event a success!   #EnvedaBiosciences #Biotech #ColoradoBioScience #Microsoft #Innovation #Community 

This week, members of our drug discovery team will be at the American Society of Mass Spectrometry meeting unveiling some of our recent advances in decoding the chemical basis of life on planet Earth. Come and check out our work! On Monday June 3 from 10:30am - 2:30pm we're presenting two posters: "Structural, Binding Site, and Functional Comparison of PCSK9 Inhibitors Discovered Utilizing a Natural Product Drug Discovery MS Platform." Poster MP 712, Presented by Scientist I Samantha Knott. "Collision Cross Section Prediction using Graph Neural Networks for improved compound identification" Poster MP 472, Presented by Data Scientist II, Shaurya Chanana. On Tuesday, June 4 from 10:30am - 2:30pm we'll have two more posters: "Molecular Networking Reveals Diversity of Phytohormones within a Physalis Diversity Panel" Poster TP 619, Presented by Research Associate II Jennifer Shipp. "Spectral similarity based on Siamese network model embeddings broadly outperforms standard cosine similarities on molecular networking tasks" Post TP 277, Presented by Staff ML Scientist Gennady Voronov. And lastly, our Research Fellow, Tobias Kind will be chairing the session "Small Molecules: Structural Characterization and Quantification" on Tuesday.

At Enveda, we define "Global Health" as encompassing both human and planetary health, and so we are thrilled to have our work featured in this Reuters series as part of the Global Health Summit in Geneva, Switzerland. As our founder Viswa Colluru, PhD, PhD says, "Life is chemistry," and this video describes how and why we are creating novel technologies to turn life's chemistry into impactful medicines for patients in need. We also discuss our efforts working to protect global biodiversity in concert with countries around the world through beneficiary agreements. We're so proud to participate in this event -- which is being attended by Viswa and our Director of Policy and Development, Tendai Chisowa, PhD -- and for the opportunity to highlight our work towards protecting and promoting global health.

Closing out our celebration of AAPINH month, CEO Viswa Colluru, PhD speaks to how being Asian American has influenced the formation and culture of Enveda. "Enveda's inception is deeply rooted in my personal heritage and upbringing. The challenge in drug discovery is that potential medicines often show promise in the lab but don't always deliver the same results in humans. Before establishing Enveda, I was determined to address this issue directly. Instinctively, my childhood encounters with traditional medicine practices came to mind. Whether it was an upset stomach, a cold, or jaundice, our family's assortment of herbs and remedies was our first port of call. As far as we could tell, they were very effective. In India, where I was raised, these weren't seen as alternative treatments, they were simply medicine. These early experiences instilled in me a strong belief in the power of nature as a source of new medicines, harnessing the wisdom of billions of years of evolution and ancient human knowledge. Why stop at aspirin, metformin, artemisinin, and taxol? Fast forward five years, I'm immensely grateful to have transformed that initial concept into a thriving organization that synergizes modern technology to unlock one of the oldest concepts in drug discovery to its full potential. This journey has been incredibly challenging and absolutely rewarding, and I can't wait for the impact we will make in the years to come."
