We want every microbial product that should exist to exist—and that begins with sharing our outlook on the untapped potential of the microbial world. Here we tell the story of Concerto.

Thanks to mastermind-behind-the-lens Jason Carman (@s3news_) and sponsor Pillar VC.

Concerto's 4th retreat: Outdoor teaming (great for our microbiomes), contemplations on microbial ecology (and how we’ll solve it), musical Jeopardy (a grand piano on site), and our cooking competition (combinatorial ingredients!). We return with minds—and microbiomes—restored.

Signal was excited to host Cheri Ackerman
to discuss her experience starting @concertobio out of her academic work.

'Go make it happen.'

Discover the microbe world within us! 🔬🦠 w/ Cheri Ackerman / Concerto Biosciences’s kChip, we explore complex microbial interactions and their work on an eczema treatment. Tune in:

Dr. Heidi Arjes from Concerto Biosciences will continue the 'New Methods in Microbiology' session with a presentation on 'Discovery of an S. aureus-pacifying microbial ensemble via massively parallel measurement of millions of microbial interactions'

Concerto CSO Jared Kehe will present the liberation of the microbe—no longer just a therapeutic target, but now a therapeutic solution. He’ll show how Concerto’s massive microbial interaction dataset is propelling a new era of applied microbiology. Register below!

The Concertians are explorers, impassioned by the secrets of the vast, invisible microbial world. We watch millions of dropletized microbial communities, each its own tiny world of possibilities, just as astronauts watch the stars and planets—with curiosity, hope, and big dreams.

Of microbes and music! Certain note combinations sound discordant until they’re woven into the larger score; the same goes for how microbes interact within their larger communities. Concerto CSO Jared Kehe explains in this profile from MIT Alumni.

We're celebrating recent funding wins for Concerto Biosciences, Anthro, Nitricity, & AeroShield Materials.

Earlier this year, total follow-on funding for #ActivateFellows reached $1B. More from on what that number means for our fellows and ecosystem: activatefello.ws/3AeK8lb

What a title! 🎹 Endpoints News and Kyle LaHucik capture our vision, energy, and passion in this profile of Concerto’s Series A fundraise.

HAPPENING NOW: Concerto Biosciences CEO Cheri Ackerman presents how we discovered Ensemble No.2, a new microbial treatment for eczema—and why we owe it to eczema patients to make skin microbiome research comprehensive and rigorous. See you there!

📢 HIRING ALERT: The need for microbial ensembles is greater than ever. With 5 new open positions, we are building our CMC team to advance our first product toward in-human testing 🦠⇄👩🏾‍🤝‍👨🏼. Learn more about the open positions at concertobio.com.

Welcome to Planet Concerto - Home of the Concertians!

The Concertians have landed! 🛸 Welcome to our new hamlet at The Engine The Engine - a dazzling space brimming with state-of-the-art equipment for lab work, fabrication, and engineering. Let's build!

Heidi acknowledges the new adventure of theirs within Concerto Biosciences
#ISME18

We asked three Cohort 2020 alumni what they’ve gleaned about culture-building as #ActivateFellows . For Cheri Ackerman, co-founder of Concerto Biosciences, building an inclusive environment is crucial for making people feel comfortable where they work.
