- STAT+: AI scientist company Edison Scientific tapped by team behind Metsera to create new biotechs
Edison Scientific, a spin-off from AI scientist company FutureHouse, was created in late 2025 with $70 million in venture funding after pharmaceutical companies showed interest in their AI agents for drug discovery.
