Read about these successes that showcase Georgia Tech's innovations as they are put to use in the world.
Georgia Tech startup Piezo Therapeutics improves access to RNA and DNA medicines with a simple, affordable, and scalable platform that can be extended broadly to vaccines, gene therapies, and more.
DASI Simulations, a startup founded in 2020 by Georgia Tech professor Dr. Lakshmi Dasi and Teri Sirset, aims to address heart disease with predictive artificial intelligence (AI) that enables personalized and optimized treatment. With DASI Simulations technology, patients who were previously considered inoperable due to their complex disease state are now candidates for lifesaving trans-catheter intervention.
Cellia Science, Inc. is making point-of-care hematology analyzers based on a novel ultraviolet (UV) microscopy system that is exclusively licensed from Georgia Tech. The goal is to envision the future of patient care by developing a device that can be used at home to provide rapid results.
By integrating the vast polymer informatics intellectual property (IP) created in Dr. Rampi Ramprasad’s Georgia Tech lab with advanced data science methods, Matmerize is transforming and accelerating industrial materials development at scale. Their unique product has positioned them as the leader in polymer informatics.
The recycling of plastics has faced challenges for quite some time. Too stable to decompose quickly, plastics pollute the environment and are very costly to recycle.
License of Georgia Tech's Micro Ammonia Production System (MAPS) Opens Door to Low-Cost, Green Fuels
