The Current Paradigm: Acknowledging the Constraints in Biomedical Research

Despite the significant strides made in health sciences, the conventional biomedical research model encounters formidable challenges. The journey from concept to market-ready pharmaceutical product often spans over a decade, incurring costs soaring up to $2.6 billion. This methodology, rooted in trial and error, is burdened by unpredictability, high failure rates, and inefficient resource allocation, highlighting the pressing need for a systematic, innovative approach.

Cognit’s Integrated Framework: A Revolutionary Step Forward

Our solution revolves around a sophisticated AI model adept at predicting gene expressions impacted by mutations in distal regulatory elements as far as 2MB pair away. This technological advancement circumvents the need for numerous costly and lengthy bioassays, significantly enhancing resource efficiency. Our Generative AI has been intricately designed to predict gene expression and transcriptomic profiles across all cell and tissue types, spanning the entire gamut of eukaryotic organisms.

Cognit’s platform is uniquely characterized by its extensive relevance, with a specific focus on polygenic diseases arising from errors and mutations in the cis and trans regulatory regions of DNA. Our goal is not simply to treat symptoms but to target the root cause, deploying gene expression engineering to combat formidable diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and coronary heart disease.
