Understanding Inflammation

CZ Biohub Chicago focuses on engineering technologies to make precise, molecular-level measurements of biological processes within human tissues, with an ultimate goal of understanding and treating the inflammatory states that underlie many diseases.

CZ Biohub Chicago will use embedded sensors and probes to collect biological signals from human tissues with unprecedented resolution. This Biohub will study inflammation, a major driver of disease, and use this new measurement platform to learn how immune cells can malfunction and cause disease.

CZ Biohub New York will harness and bioengineer immune cells for the early detection, prevention, and ultimately treatment of a wide variety of human diseases.

New York
Harnessing the Immune System

CZ Biohub New York will first harness the natural capabilities of our immune cells to detect and fix abnormalities in our bodies at very early stages. It will then bioengineer immune cells to create new capabilities to detect and potentially treat diseases, including cancers such as ovarian and pancreatic cancer and neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's or Alzheimer's, before they become untreatable.
