About Ankit Singhal
Ankit is the CEO of Anthrogen. He was a Science Research Fellow and Named Scholar at Columbia (a designation reserved for the top ~10 STEM research students in each class). He has worked in both wet labs and computational labs (focusing on catalysis and structural biology/biophysics) for years. He published several first-author papers as early as high school, won and led national teams at international science/research competitions – he’s excited to lead Anthrogen’s damp lab approach.
Companies & Work
Anthrogen
Anthrogen uses genetically modified bacteria and optimized enzymes to turn carbon from the air into cheap chemicals. Think Solugen but for more complex molecules/enzyme cascades and using atmospheric carbon instead of sugar as a base.
We have engineered the fastest photosynthesizing organism in the world with CRISPR and use generative models to design our enzymatic cascades. We are stating with jet/rocket fuel but will expand to other verticals soon.
