I am urgent in everything I do. Like, everything must happen now. If we really need to to make the world a better place, like, why should we wait fifty years? Why don't we do it now? Food production and just food is something everyone takes for granted. Like, of course, we have food on the table, especially us in Europe and in in The US. There's so much inefficiencies all around the world within food production and and food that good, like, we really need to solve. What Root Bio is trying to solve is the hardest and worst important biological problems outside human pharma. We use AI to design completely new molecules for food production or agriculture. Our first molecule is reducing methane emissions from cows. We basically have done this whole discovery process manually. But no, because of AI and automation, we can do it in months. But we are also working on antibiotic alternatives, and our products always increase value for the farmer and do something good for the for the world. This is what, like, what I really love. Like, it's tech entrepreneur in my heart, finally being able to use AI to the good.
