Our paper on the discovery of ENS-002, Concerto's drug for atopic dermatitis, is on bioRxiv! 🦠🧴In biological products, complexity is a feature, not a bug. Multifunctionality means higher efficacy across a broader set of real-world conditions. See how we accomplished this 👇🏻
Using kChip, we generated & profiled millions of microbial communities, transforming complexity into a searchable design space. That search yielded ENS-002, a 3-strain consortium that targets S. aureus to treat atopic dermatitis.

Ensemble No.1, fully assembled. Thanks for a fun and productive week of in-person work! If you want to join the team, we're hiring for another 4+ positions this fall across biz dev, bioprocess, and analytical. Gotta wrap this up before I think of some bad quorum sensing joke...🦠
A new niche for our growing ensemble. Still can't believe Concerto's name is on the wall 😍😭🦠
The Concertians have landed! 🛸 Welcome to our new hamlet at The Engine @enginexyz - a dazzling space brimming with state-of-the-art equipment for lab work, fabrication, and engineering. Let's build!
Happy 2nd Birthday, @ConcertoBio!!
Growth spurt! If you want to join the team, now is the moment. Let's go!
Beautiful work by @NicoleLWelch and @sabeti_lab tracking Omicron in Massachusetts using CARMEN, and providing a first look at the spread of this variant days before sequencing results become available. Couldn't be happier to see this tech take flight. Congrats!!!
Through a partnership with @MassDPH using CARMEN, we have a provisional look at #Omicron spread in Massachusetts: Of positive samples collected Dec. 16, 45% show strong evidence of Omicron, with rapid rate of increase. Learn more: broad.io/Tracking-Omicron
Congrats @jaredscottkehe! Microbes are amazing and synergistic and so are youuuuuu <3
If you're a microbial ecology nerd like us, check out Jared's new paper!
“Microbes, like humans, are stronger together than they ever could be alone.”

The best way to respond to an outbreak? Learning. Not #othering. @PardisSabeti explains. Check it out!
Happy Birthday, @ConcertoBio!!! I couldn't be prouder of what our team has built over the last year <3
Concerto’s first day at @harvardlifelab was exactly one year ago today 🎂. What a pleasure and privilege it’s been to call this incredible community our home. Here comes Year 2!

With millions of data points flowing out of Concerto’s lab, we proudly enter the next phase of discovery. We welcome our brilliant Lead Data Scientist, Keaton Armentrout (linkedin.com/in/ksarmentrout…), to spearhead the analysis of the largest microbial interaction dataset ever.
We want to learn about eczema from people who live with it, because we're working to develop a new treatment for eczema. Use this survey to tell us your story and what your dream eczema treatment would be like! Know someone with eczema? Please spread the word!
Our team is developing a novel eczema product that provides long-lasting relief. If you or your child suffer from eczema, please take this 15 min survey to help us develop the best possible product!
