The Breakouts - 20 Minute Startup Stories

Jeff Sherman and David Morgan recently raised a $18.5M seed round for Zephyr AI - a startup advancing precision medicine using ML-powered predictive analytics.

Imagine a world in which you could enter data about a type of cancer you want to cure, and an AI could tell you how to make the most effective medicine possible — a world in which drug discovery happens in days, not decades. That’s the world Zephyr AI is trying to build
