An unignorable amount of evidence has piled up that we are able to slow the biological processes of aging in animals.The evidence has accumulated along multiple lines of research led by world-class scientists at UCSF, Stanford, MIT, and more of the world’s best labs — and in all cases, we’re left with the same conclusion:

By understanding and directly treating the degradation accumulated while we age, we can find new therapies for fighting many diseases.

However, these world-class scientists don’t yet have world-class tools. Computational technology that is breaking new ground in many industries is still fledgling in drug discovery and development.

This technology — a melding of machine learning, high-dimensional data, lab automation, and software built just for scientists — offers a solution well-suited for the challenges of understanding complex biology like aging and its diseases.

Scientists working tirelessly to find therapies for our worst diseases deserve our best tools — tools that give them the superpowers such a fight demands. At Spring, we’ve dedicated ourselves to building this technology.
