Senti Bio uses synthetic biology to engineer gene circuits that improve cell and gene therapy products. A gene circuit is an assembly of multi-component genetic constructs specifically designed to program cells to interact with the body's complex environment using logic to perform desired therapeutic functions. Senti Bio uses these gene circuits to create 'smarter' cell and gene therapies with enhanced therapeutic properties that aim to increase efficacy, precision and control.
