Collaboration combines Tamarind Bio’s AI-powered molecular design platform with GenScript’s wet-lab capabilities to help researchers move from digital concepts to experimental proof

PISCATAWAY, N.J. and SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Artificial intelligence can now generate thousands of potential drug molecules in the time it once took to design one, dramatically expanding what scientists can imagine. Yet deciding which designs merit further investment still depends on experimental proof.

To help address that gap, GenScript Biotech Corporation and Tamarind Bio today announced a strategic partnership connecting Tamarind Bio’s AI-powered molecular design platform with GenScript’s wet-lab validation capabilities. Together, the companies are creating a connected validation engine for AI-enabled discovery, giving scientists a more direct path from AI-generated designs to lab-generated evidence.

Through this collaboration, researchers using Tamarind Bio’s platform can submit AI-generated sequences and access GenScript’s end-to-end wet-lab services, including synthesis, expression, and testing. By reducing manual handoffs between design and validation, the workflow enables teams to generate biological data faster and prioritize promising candidates more efficiently.

Addressing a Critical Discovery Bottleneck
As AI increases the volume and diversity of molecular designs entering research pipelines, lab capacity and validation have become critical constraints. GenScript’s wet-lab infrastructure helps researchers move from digital sequences to model-ready experimental data in as little as four days. With over two decades of biologics expertise, GenScript has built one of the industry’s most advanced validation engines for AI-enabled discovery, helping teams evaluate more candidates and build richer datasets to support downstream discovery decisions.

“AI is opening doors the industry could only imagine a few years ago,” said Ray Chen, President of GenScript Life Science Group. “But biology still determines what moves forward. By connecting AI-powered design to experimental proof, this partnership is helping lay the groundwork for the next generation of scientific innovation.”

Expanding Access to Molecular Design
Tamarind Bio’s no-code platform empowers biologics and small molecule researchers with access to more than 300 computational biology models. The platform enables researchers to rapidly test and evaluate AI applications in drug discovery, then scale and execute them for full computational design campaigns.

The integration with GenScript extends that capability into the lab, enabling researchers to seamlessly validate promising molecular designs through a single connected workflow.

“Tamarind was built to make advanced molecular design accessible to every scientist,” said Deniz Kavi, CEO and Co-Founder of Tamarind Bio. “Partnering with GenScript bridges the gap between digital design and physical experimentation, empowering scientists to turn promising candidates into actionable lab results faster than ever.”

Connecting Design to Decision
The partnership reflects a broader shift across the discovery ecosystem: as AI expands what researchers can generate, fast and reliable experimental validation is becoming more important. By connecting AI-powered design with wet-lab validation earlier in discovery, GenScript and Tamarind Bio are enabling researchers to make faster, better-informed decisions about which programs to advance.

Earlier validation of promising molecular designs could help accelerate progress across applications ranging from therapeutics and cell and gene therapy to industrial biotechnology.
