Mostly crap, but I like pembient and maybe Clara foods, they have shots at making it. I really want an abiobot but I don't think their founder will make it. Same with arc reactor. Blue turtle was the fraudster of the group. I know enough about Gaucher disease to know that their proposal was total nonsense.

I'm not harshing on class 1 - probably even with ycombinator, many classes if not all are "mostly crap". Zero, though, is stunning.

I think pembient are going to contribute to increasing poaching, not preventing it.

Google Alerts has brought this conversation to my attention. If you haven't read our recent thoughts on the issue, I invite you to do so. You can find them here:

As for IndieBio and the prospects of its class members, I'm sure it is too early to tell. We're flattered, though, to be included in this discussion.

Maybe. I can see it going the other way.
