About

Based in Massachusetts, US, and co-founded by Elizabeth Wood (CEO), Julie Norville (CSO/CTO), and George Church (SAB Chair) in 2019, Jura Bio, Inc. operates as a pharmaceutical company offering autoimmune disease therapy solutions. In September 2023, the firm raised USD 16. 1 million in venture funding led by investor Fontus Capital.


The company engages in the development of genomic medicine and expanding the scope of immune-mediated medicines. With a focus on cancer and T-cell mediated autoimmune diseases, JURA Bio has introduced different solutions such as MHC-CAR and cell-free systems. These innovations open new avenues for targeted therapies, harnessing the power of TCR therapies to combat cancer and control the immune response in autoimmune diseases. Additionally, the firm also employs an ML-guided end-to-end discovery and development platform that seamlessly integrates synthetic biology and machine learning.


This platform enables the design, construction, and testing of protein-based therapies at an unprecedented scale. The company plans to utilize the September 2023 funding to expand its machine learning-based pharmaceutical research.
