The world is filled with data, but Fieldstone Bio believes that microbes can uncover what we can’t see. These tiny organisms have the power to sense and respond to information, making trillions of calculations every second.

Microbes as Sensors

Founded in 2023 after spinning out of MIT, Fieldstone Bio’s technology turns microbes into sensors. By programming these microbes to change color when they encounter specific compounds, such as TNT residue or arsenic, the company is unlocking a new world of possibilities.

Testing in the Real World

With $5 million in seed funding, Fieldstone Bio is now testing its microbial sensors in real-world environments. Each strain is customized to detect a particular compound, offering a tailored solution for various industries, from agriculture to national security.

The Future of Environmental Sensing

By utilizing hyperspectral cameras and AI, Fieldstone Bio aims to map out environmental contaminants with unprecedented accuracy. And with a growing database, the company hopes to train models to detect these contaminants without the need for engineered microbes, paving the way for global-scale monitoring.
