About your organization / profile

bixbio is a deep-tech bioinformatics company building tools that unlock the potential of diverse genetic data in Africa to transform drug discovery for everyone.

 

bixbio has identified that current bioinformatics tools fall far short of their expected performance when applied to genomic data from Africa. There are clear examples of the knock-on effect of biased data and tools, such as in the generation of polygenic risk scores, where African populations are disproportionately underserved. 

 

Africa is the largest source of human genetic diversity, a diversity that remains largely unexplored. We believe that the future of drug discovery relies on a deep understanding of African genetic diversity. bixbio builds the tools that make this possible.
