Healthcare


Molecular Medicine is the future of modern Healthcare

And the advances and products we are invested in represent a paradigm shift that is already moving markets. New diagnostic platforms will continue to expand the ability to identify patients earlier and at a molecular level. Physicians increasingly can target disease with more effective precision-based therapies and leverage molecular-based approaches transforming the morbidity and mortality of disease. The speculation phase is over and the impact will be game-changing, underpin every aspect of care, rapidly changing traditional business models. Casdin Capital knows the space, and who will be empowered and who will ultimately be disrupted.

Biotechnology


Genomics is a free-market success story based on the unlocking of the human genome,

making the early promise of Biotechnology a reality. The tools and data now underlie the next generation of great medicines. With its remarkable benefit to society, a direct result of partnerships between the science and investment communities, life-saving medicines and profit will never be mutually exclusive. It’s been an exciting ride so far. And it has only just begun.

Life Science Tools, Diagnostics, Drug Developers

Expertise

Synthetic Biology


Healthcare is not the only application for the key advances in genetic engineering.

Genomics is embedded in the most significant current approaches to increasing food production, disease resistance livestock, and sustainable production of materials and specialty chemicals. While these advances will soon underpin areas like the global food supply, Casdin Capital is well-versed in the current ethical and scientific concerns, particularly around genetically modified foods (GMOs). The ways forward are not uncomplicated, but Life Sciences must be part of the solution to the growing demand for food and the new environmental challenges that face us all.
