Cradle

In a birth chart, you may sometimes find a configuration that looks like it is being cradled safely while swaying. This shape, called a cradle in Western astrology, is a complex aspect created when one opposition (180 degrees) is surrounded on both sides

Every antibody optimization campaign starts with the same gap. You have a lead, maybe from immunization, maybe from phage display. You know it binds. But you also know it's not ready: The affinity isn't tight enough, or expression is too low, or stability

Protein engineering brings together several deep disciplines: wet-lab science, computational biology, and machine learning. A single ML-guided round draws on all of them. Preparing the data, training a model, generating and evaluating sequences, and choos

One of the most common questions scientists ask before starting with Cradle is whether they have enough data. They might be working without any campaign-specific assay data at all, and want to kick off a project with only a weakly functional starting sequ

VALBY, Denmark & AMSTERDAM, 03 June 2026 - H. Lundbeck A/S (Lundbeck), a global biopharmaceutical company focused exclusively on brain health, and Cradle, a leading AI platform for protein engineering, today announced a partnership to help Lundbeck discov

The "soap bark tree" Quillaja saponaria gets its name from the saponins in its bark-natural compounds that create a soapy lather in water. Indigenous people in the Andes have used this bark for generations as a natural remedy. Scientists later discovered

A lead candidate with exceptional on-target activity that fails in process development six months later is a common result of sequential property optimization. Optimizing binding first, then function, then developability, then expression treats each prope

The Foundational Questions Institute, FQxI, catalyzes, supports, and disseminates research on questions at the foundations of science, particularly new frontiers and innovative ideas integral to a deep understanding of reality, but unlikely to be supporte
