RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK – Innatrix is already training next-generation scientists how to protect crops using its newly patented platform.
The Research Triangle Park-based ag tech startup recently got the intellectual property protection for its protein evolution platform. It’s designed to screen highly specific protein ligands to safely and effectively address crop diseases such as citrus greening, potato late blight, and soybean cyst nematode.
Now Innatrix is teaming up with the Massachusetts-based nonprofit Station1 to host a 10-week internship, giving undergrad majors in STEM (science, technology engineering and math) a chance to see EvoStat in action.
