From a pinhole to a panorama

Proteins are functional drivers of biology and thus key indicators of status in any living organism. To truly understand biology, we must empower researchers with the tools necessary to discover, annotate, and understand the rich universe of the proteome.

For decades, a critical limiting factor has been the inability to access the proteome in an unbiased, deep manner rapidly and at the scale necessary to survey and understand its diversity.

To create a more transformative view of the proteome, we had to create a new technology; one that provides a new lens on the proteome, enabling researchers to see the breadth, depth and dynamic nature of proteome diversity across populations and time. This is done across orders of magnitude of protein abundance; and is applicable to longitudinal population studies in a rapid and robust manner. While technologies exist today that can provide one or more of these attributes, Seer is expected to be the first to combine them all into a single, efficient workflow.

We aim to empower researchers to see more of the proteome and understand more of its diversity

Provide functional context for the genome by linking genetic variants to proteoforms (protein variants)

Generate definitive stratification of patients based on actual proteomic data versus genomic inferences

Develop better markers for early disease detection

Improve the timeline and probability of success for therapeutic development

Our approach starts with proprietary engineered nanoparticles developed to maximize proteomic insights – simply and robustly.

Seer’s technology delivers the unique combination of attributes necessary for a transformative approach to proteomics:

Unbiased coverage:

See what’s there– not just what you are searching for or what you can capture

Deep access:

Survey and represent the entire dynamic range of the proteome – even in complex samples such as plasma and serum

Rapid workflow:

Rely on an optimized, robust workflow to complete your projects – fast and with minimal hands on time

Scalable technology:

Scale both assay design and study size – including large sample longitudinal studies
