Biocellion is helping life sciences companies use virtual experiments to bring better outcomes to market faster while reducing waste and cost. Biologists can simulate tissues with millions or even billions of cells to quickly test hypotheses or explore large parameter spaces. My focus was making this advanced technology easier to use by scientists who don't necessarily have a background in computer science.
