Plastivores: Plastic-Degrading Super-Microbes and Enzymes

The Plastic Degradation project identifies microbes from natural sources that have a low-level ability to degrade multiple types of plastic. In the laboratory, with the help of synthetic biology, those microbes then are evolved into much more effective plastic-eating microbes that, in the future, could be globally deployed to decompose plastic waste.

Reel Foods: Cultivated fillets of fish for healthier people and planet
Reel Foods: Cultivated fillets of fish for healthier people and planet

Reel Foods leverages cardiac tissue engineering methods developed at the Wyss Institute to generate cultivated fish fillets that are indistinguishable from wild-caught seafood, have a lower carbon footprint than traditional fish production, and are free from contaminants like mercury and PFAS.

Wearable Technology for True Movement Quantification
Wearable Technology for True Movement Quantification

WurQ combines wearable sensors, with deep learning and signal processing algorithms, to assess the amount, quality, and intensity of functional movements and strength training activities. This quantitative data enables feedback, guidance, and gamification at scale to improve users fitness routines and health.

Human Ovarian Organoids to Improve Women’s Health
Human Ovarian Organoids to Improve Women’s Health

Gameto is using the Wyss Institute’s fully human ovarian organoid technology to solve the global problem of rising infertility by making IVF safer, cheaper, and more accessible.
