Missouri Native Empowering Innovation at Confluence Genetics

This has been exciting work to go from "interesting" observations in the lab to multiple groups showing the use of Cas-CLEAR (Cas12a2) for cancer therapeutics!

[Confluence Genetics @ConfluenceAg]

Today we launched Cas-CLEAR™, a CRISPR oncology platform built on our foundational Cas12a2 technology. It recognizes a cancer-specific signature and selectively eliminates the cells that carry it. https://t.co/2G37Zs4ilV

@EricTopol @N8Krah Fantastic application of SuCas12a2 for oncology! If anyone is interested in learning more about the CRISPR technology or licensing - feel free to reach out

@a16z @phylo_bio I tried it yesterday - super solid platform with a great user interface. Doing some validate work today to see if the results/outcomes are “real”

I'm getting ready to head down to Atlanta for the IPSF and IPPE conference next week. Looking forward to sharing the impact of high quality ProVIA soybeans on poultry product. Reach out if you want to talk broilers or turkeys! #IPPE2026 @IPPEexpo @USPOULTRY1947

@PracheeAC I felt the same way last weekend as a Packers fan. Solid run by the Bears though - but until next year…

@NHF_Magazine Great demonstration of @ConfluenceGen ProVIA soybeans in swine. Check out https://t.co/P1rZLqxTTH to learn more about our soybean varieties for animal feed.

[Matt Begemann @MattBegemann]

Soybeans are an important source of protein in animal feed - a cornerstone of poultry and swine nutrition. At @ConfluenceGen we created ProVIA soybeans with Higher Protein, More Energy, and Less Anti-Nutrients. A recent study by @cafnr @Mizzou shows the impact of ProVIA in swine.

@BensonHillInc This was a great collaboration with the University of Arkansas Poultry Science team! Looking forward to more awesome work with this group 🐓

The biotech markets are in flux, making it hard to land your first job out of a PhD. Here are my insights fas someone who been on the other side of hiring.

@BensonHillInc @PerdueFarms This was a great collaboration to be a part of! These genetics rock and we are now seeing it translate into end markets.

[Benson Hill @BensonHillInc]

We're thrilled to share the success of our feeding trial with @PerdueFarms. By incorporating UHP-LO soybean meal, we can reduce feed costs while maintaining animal performance. #BHIL #AnimalFeed #Poultry #Seedinnovation #Soy

@wayneriekhof Is this a parody account? My goodness…

[Matt Begemann @MattBegemann]

@wayneriekhof This past year we had the mizuna (brassica) and ground cherries. Both were awesome
