Building the foundation of a vibrant bioeconomy one plasmid at a time
GenoFAB works with life scientists who need plasmids to develop the next-generation biotechnology products or test groundbreaking scientific hypotheses.
GenoFAB biofoundry combines data science and automation to manage plasmids from design to distribution.
Unlike internally developed plasmids that are partially documented, poorly designed, contain mutations and are difficult to distribute securely, GenoFAB uses software to automate the design, documentation, assembly, production, and distribution of plasmids you can trust.
GenoFAB, Inc. is a spin-off of Colorado State University (CSU) that has licensed patented technologies developed with funding from the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, and other federal agencies. Through a contract with CSU, GenoFAB also has access to the services of the Colorado Biofoundry to subcontract part of its clients projects to a high-throughput facility that complements their internal laboratory resources.
At GenoFAB, our 'data first' philosophy is more than a belief. It's a strategic approach that underlines the importance of data as a foundational element in the decision-making, development, and operations of R&D projects. This core principle is designed to maximize shareholder value by supporting strong patent claims while ensuring freedom to operate.
The GenoFAB patent-pending Biofoundry Operating System is not just a tool. It's a powerful platform that provides unprecedented flexibility, empowering you to manage complex R&D projects. It allows you to define and manage complex workflows that combine experimental steps, computational operations, and supply chain transactions, putting you firmly in control of your projects.
Our Team
Engineers transforming the production of research data
Jean is a synthetic biology pioneer who quickly understood the potential of a model-driven approach to the development of biotechnology products.
He founded GenoFAB to support the synthetic biology programs of biotech companies and research organizations that need to accelerate the development of revolutionary products used to save lives, feed the world, and support sustainable economic growth.
Today, Jean hold the Abell Chair in Synthetic Biology in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at Colorado State University (CSU). He leads the Colorado Cyberbiofoundry, a high-throughput facility to accelerate the development of new viral vectors and other gene delivery systems for biomedical applications.
He was the founding Editor-in-Chief of the journal Synthetic Biology published by Oxford University Press. Dr. Peccoud is on the editorial boards for Trends in Biotechnology and Nucleic Acids Research and has published more than 100 articles with more than 4,000 citations.
Since 2008, he has advised the U.S. Department of Defense, Department of Justice, and members of the intelligence community to help them anticipate and manage cyberbiosecurity threats emerging at the interface between the biological space and cyberspace. He is a member of the Engineering Biology Research Consortium Council and Security Working Group. Looking forward, Dr. Peccoud is creating an indelible imprint with GenoFAB by proposing a new R&D paradigm at the intersection of science and engineering.
Katie Miller
VP of Business Development
With experience in research and business, Katie possesses a distinctive skillset oriented towards nurturing collaboration and creating growth opportunities for scientists and investors. In a prior role within the Multifamily Real Estate sector, she was overseeing a portfolio with an approximate value of $700 million. In this capacity, she directly engaged with institutional partners and operators to enhance wealth generation through meticulously optimized and managed processes.
A molecular biologist by training, Katie started her career contributing to several vaccine development projects. This hands-on experience gives her a unique perspective on the challenges faced by life scientists responsible for the development of new biologic drugs.
More recently, she combined her scientific and business expertise to the lead the development of proposals to research programs funded various government agencies such as the National Institutes of Health or the National Science Foundation.
In this context, she has been instrumental in the development of an integrated and diversified portfolio of intellectual properties that includes patents, copyrights, trade secrets, and trademarks. In this role, she has been involved or led efforts to identify opportunities to create new IP assets, license existing assets, and prosecute IP rights infringements.
Katieis an active member of the scientific and business community. She is a member of the Engineering Biology Research Consortium (EBRC), where she focuses on Policy, International Engagement, and Security.
Samuel Peccoud
Lead Software Engineer
Samuel is a computer engineer by training. Over the years, he has accumulated significant experience in developing software applications and robotics platforms. He is proficient in several web development and coding languages, including JavaScript, React, Ruby on Rails, SQL, C, and C++. Additionally, I have experience in Machine Learning (TensorFlow, scikit-learn), circuit design (Verilog, Cadence), DevOps (Git, Circle CL, Bitbucket, Heroku, AWS), iOS Development (Swift, Xcode), as well as Arduino, Robotics and Control Systems.
Samuel has designed, architected, and implemented a laboratory information management system to analyze reproducibility of experimental workflows. This laboratory information management system is currently used daily by research groups at Colorado State University, University of Washington, University of California Irvine, and McGill.
He has also led the development and deployment of the PlasCAT and GSIN applications.
