Our Scientific Strategy

The Institute generates and analyses large-scale genomic data to deliver three research objectives to advance fundamental knowledge and postively impact healthcare and society:

Disease genomics – deciphering the molecular underpinnings of health and disease

Engineering genomics – elucidating how DNA sequences encode biological functions

Planetary genomics – understanding planetary biology through genome sequences of diverse species

Expand the frontier of generative biology - Group Leader position available

We’re shaping the future of biology and we’re looking for visionary scientists to help lead the way. We’re hiring a new Group Leader to join our Generative and Synthetic Genomics Programme, where biology meets AI to unlock programmable, predictive, and scalable molecular engineering.

Our mission is bold: to build the foundations of predictive and programmable biology, enabling the routine synthesis and engineering of genomes. Our world-class programme merges large-scale data generation with artificial intelligence and cutting-edge synthetic genomics.
