Our mission is to improve
the lives of the millions that
suffer from food allergies
and gluten-related disorders

with significant social, health, and economic impact
$25B
each year is spent on healthcare costs related to food allergies and disorders
1 in every 13 children in
the United States is affected by food allergies
new cases of celiac
disease have doubled every fifteen years
We are using cutting
edge technologies in immunology, computational biology, and plant science to develop a new approach
We are building a comprehensive, clinically validated map of the molecular structure of food allergies and disorders, unlocking critical knowledge about the biological mechanisms that drive human food interactions. We are applying this knowledge to develop foods that are safe and healthy for everyone to eat, starting with two of the most common triggers, peanuts and wheat.
