| | DECEMBER 2021 6EDITOR'S DESKThe world of biotechnology coaxes us with wild promises, offering to tackle myriad diseases and feed the world, among other prospects. The latest developments bear an uncanny resemblance to what was previously seen only in Isaac Asimov's stories. From the first human head transplant to gene editing, biotechnology developments blur the lines between science and science fiction.With various biotech firms focused on next-generation cell therapies and regenerative medicine, re-growing entire organs is now a reality. The pioneering research of Shinya Yamanaka has paved the way for further innovation in regenerative therapies, with companies working on growing humanized organs, regenerating human skin, and growing kidney organoids.Similarly, technology continues to advance neuroscience to new levels. Improvements in knowledge about other species and higher resolution MRI technologies and machine learning have dramatically accelerated the understanding of the human brain's functions. A few companies have also developed technologies based on high-dimensional 3D representations of energy flows within the brain to improve the understanding of energy flows. Finally, artificial intelligence is revolutionizing biotech by performing analyses in seconds instead of minutes and hours when human analysts are involved. Concurrently, it is also advancing the understanding of cancer cases to recommend better treatments.Over the past few months, we have analyzed scores of Biotech solution providers in the market and shortlisted the companies at the forefront of tackling challenges in the arena. A distinguished panel comprising CEOs, CIOs, VCs, Analysts, and the editorial board of StartupCity magazine has selected the top Biotech solution providers across the APAC region.
